RE: Being Introverted is NOT a Personality Defect in Need of "Fixing!"

in #psychology8 years ago (edited)

This is one of the best articles, and dialed in very nicely, I've read about introverts. @denmarkguy From one introvert to another. THANK YOU! I've forgotten the number of times since childhood that the extrovert tilted world tried to mold me into what they expected me to be and become. Only since the last 5 years have I been able to really live in my own skin, and with the evolution of the Internet this has made it a lot easier! :) Thanks for sharing! and I'm now a humble follower.

Thanks for the kind words!

For me, I am perfectly OK and happy with extraverts being extraverts... what I am not so happy with-- and what gave rise to this article-- is the idea that I need to be made into something I am not, for what seems like very little reason other than to soothe someone's discomfort at being around someone not like themselves.
