#141883 Are you an introvert? Do you think it's related to depression and anti-so...

Posted Mahuta ♥ on Dec 01, 2011 - 21:16

So I happened to ask someone this question:

"Whats the correct word to describe someone who's thinking about somethings and no one knows what they are and prefers to keep to himself?", and I got the answer "Introvert"

I looked it up and the definition was

"Contrary to what most people think, an introvert is not simply a person who is shy. In fact, being shy has little to do with being an introvert! Shyness has an element of apprehension, nervousness and anxiety, and while an introvert may also be shy, introversion itself is not shyness. Basically, an introvert is a person who is energized by being alone and whose energy is drained by being around other people. Introverts are more concerned with the inner world of the mind. They enjoy thinking, exploring their thoughts and feelings. They often avoid social situations because being around people drains their energy. This is true even if they have good social skills. After being with people for any length of time, such as at a party, they need time alone to "recharge." When introverts want to be alone, it is not, by itself, a sign of depression. It means that they either need to regain their energy from being around people or that they simply want the time to be with their own thoughts. Being with people, even people they like and are comfortable with, can prevent them from their desire to be quietly introspective. Being introspective, though, does not mean that an introvert never has conversations. However, those conversations are generally about ideas and concepts, not about what they consider the trivial matters of social small talk."

I felt so relieved because I finally found a word that explains exactly how I feel. I am not sure if there are a lot of introverts around, but I am wondering if anyone else feels this way?

I found the test below in a psychology website, and it may not be scientific and all, but almost every single point applied to me, so it should give you an idea if you're wondering:

Spoiler


It is said that an introvert is not an anti-social person nor a depressed one. They are simply..and introvert. What do you think about that? The answer may differ from one person to another depending on how much of an introvert they are. For example, and introvert will say, yes introversion has nothing to do with me being anti-social or depressed, whereas someone who's not an introvert will insist that if someone wants to stay alone a lot., avoid social situations..etc..etc, they are at least anti-social.

I really want to get some opinions..so tell me what you think.
