“Do you know introverts are said to live longer than extroverts?Haha,just kidding 😂”

So I haven’t really been writing much lately. Life’s been loud,school stress, presentations, just trying to breathe through it all. But today, I feel like talking. Or maybe… just ranting. Let’s talk about introverts. And no, not the cliché “I like to be alone” type of introverts. I mean the real, weird ones. Because we’re honestly the weirdest,and I say that with pride. We’re the quietest in the room, but somehow the craziest personalities once we’re comfortable. People always assume we’re just shy or antisocial, but trust me, there’s a whole movie playing in our heads,we just don’t show the trailer. Me? I grew up in a strict household. No friends. Just school, church, and back home. No phone, no outings, no “outside life.” Strange, right? 🌚So I never really knew what was happening outside my room. Life was just me… in my own little world. I got used to talking to myself,a lot. And now people think I’m going psycho, but honestly? I’m not. 😂 I’ve just been used to myself. My space. My energy. That’s always been enough for me. But now I’m in uni. And suddenly, I’m expected to… socialize?? It’s wild. Being around people 24/7, trying to cohabitate,trying to adjust.I’ve realized I actually have social anxiety. I overthink everything. I discovered I’m shy. I even found out I might have avoidant attachment disorder,but that’s another story for another day.🙂 Cohabiting has been hard. Coming out of my shell has been harder. Sometimes I try. I really do. But then I stop and ask myself: Is it really necessary?Do I really need to become “outgoing”? Do I have to force myself to make friends when I feel safest alone? Why can’t I just be who I’ve always been? I know, they say “you have to network,” “you need people,” “this is the time to build relationships,” — and maybe that’s true. But I also know my peace is precious. I’ve been learning to grow… but on my own terms. So yeah, this is a rant. But it’s also a piece of me.But I also know my peace is precious.I’ve been learning to grow..but on my own terms.To anyone out there like me,the real introverts, just know you’re not alone. This world keeps pushing us to be “extra,” but sometimes… our quiet is enough.
