My social anxiety isn't as bad as it used to be. same with me. I used to think I should be alone, but being alone makes me very anxious and depressed. Social anxiety has got lot better and I worked on it a lot, taking presenting/talking classes etc. Loud spaces with a lot of people, movement, noises and so on are very tiring and hard for me. I guess I am quite sensitive to the surroundings. After being with people I need to be in silence, but have noticed that as I need to see people too, I sometimes over-plan and don't have enough recovery time. Those moments I may get very dramatic and hate myself for "being so sensitive I cant even go to events" but.. that just how things are! I like being at home and taking care of plants and seeing smaller group of friends. One big problem for me is so-called empty talks - if it's just chat for the sake of chatting, nothing interesting, nothing that makes sense to me - I get super bored. I try to avoid people/groups like this, with this communication style. Often in bus or tram I feel like can't people JUST shut up if they don't have anything meaningful to say! o.o Link to post Share on other sites
SithAzathoth WinterDragon Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I'm extremely introverted, I've never been in a physical romantic relationship, never been sexual and never will or "need" to. I do not talk to many people or go out, I'm not the type that will do anything that will weaken my alertness of my surroundings in a public place. I avoid drinking in public as I do not want to be used or tricked into "going home" and taken to somewhere I do not know. I avoid contact with biological family because many have shown they do not love the European side of the family (Swedish and Celtic) in fact they hate it, I went as far as changing my name to my Scottish heritage and adding a Scandinavian part to my middle name and many have blocked me, cut me out. Because of how I see how the world and society is today I remain quiet most of the time and in the best moments and rarely find a like mind and we talk. Otherwise I avoid as much contact with public as possible. Link to post Share on other sites
Gloomy Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Definitely an introvert. I’d work from home and live in the middle of nowhere if I could. Link to post Share on other sites
