I know how “introvert culture” is pretty popular on this site but there’s a lot of misconceptions

Introverts get drained from being with other people and recharge their “social battery” by being alone

Extroverts charge their “social battery” being around other people

It has nothing to do with how shy/outgoing you are. You can be an outgoing introvert who loves parties but ultimately needs to recharge at home before going out again. You can be a shy extrovert who gets their energy from 1-2 close friends.

If u think ur an introvert bc you can’t go outside/have panic attacks/cannot answer the phone you could have an anxiety disorder and
