      This video is an absolute favourite one to me.I could relate so many things from this one.
      I m an introvert and it took so long time to realize that thing. After all years of self criticism and self disapproval even after I realized that I m an introvert , it took another long period to accept myself. Wat I felt was , it feels so good and better and easy to accept myself rather than trying to change like an extrovert. But enjoyed juggling into various self help books and pdfs and articles and speeches reading about introversion..
      Please do upload many videos about introversion :)

      Yeah i can relate... its just bc im an introvert, doesnt mean im the most useless in group projects. My classmates ALWAYS and i do mean ALWAYS tells me that im the most useless person in the group, its not my fault its their's fault, they only give me weak jobs to be done very easily bc they think im stupid.
      And before this pandemic happends i always get 85+ score (considered good in my school) and my classmates just keep describing me as that one jerkish suspicious guy that no one wants to be friends with. And the pandemic makes it worse, my friends dont want to even group up with me for a group project online. But when i do solo all those group projects i got like the 3rd if not the 2nd best score on them. And my friends just kept saying "he probably stole it from somebody, or he pay someone to do it for him!" (Cuz my family is rich). I dont know what i should do to prove them wrong.

    I am an introvert , I was bullied when i was in school . These bullies were physically weaker than me , but still bullied because i was a quite person . I requested them many times not to make fun of me . One day the three of them caused a great embarrassment to be infront of teachers and other students. This angered me , on the same day I beat all the three persons and warned them. They never bullied me ever again

      LOVE IT. Dude, this was exactly me. While at a new school in the 6th grade, and into the 7th, I was relentlessly bullied and harassed by a group of aggressive tools I hadn't ever done anything to, especially this one POS in my class and his older brother. It wasn't just verbal, either, there were plenty of physical encounters. One day, I just finally had it and threw all caution to the wind and told myself I would happily accept whatever the results were, but I was going to rear up and do something. I can't even remember exactly what he had done that sent me over the edge, but one morning, early during English class, as I was walking my homework up to put on the teacher's desk, I walked by his desk, stopped briefly, swing my hips and drove my fist into the side of his head with everything I could muster. There was a tremendous "thud" from the fluid in his skull cavitating as he went flying out of his seat, and he let out of a spontaneous "F**K" after landing on the floor. The teacher, who was writing on the chalkboard at the time and had her back to the class, wheeled around and demanded to know the reason for his outburst. He pointed at me and wailed that I had sucker punched him, which of course, I had. She asked me if it was true, and I denied it. She sent him down to the principal's office. Later in the hour, the vice principal came and pulled me out of class to talk to me out in the hallway about the incident, and he asked me point-blank if I had struck him. Again, I had already accepted I was going to be punished as a result of what I did before I even did it, but in that moment, time seemed to freeze, and I had a startling realization: 10-15 other kids in that class saw what happened, and not a single one of them uttered a word to rat me out or to defend the bully. I was a quiet, bookish kid who didn't have beef with anyone, so I knew it wasn't because anyone feared any retaliation from me, and instantly realized what had to be the truth: they believed he deserved what he got. Which, of course, he did. Which meant it was just. So I looked that VP in the eye and confidently said "No, I didn't." The bully received in-school suspension for his use of profanity in class, and I walked free. That kid and his brother never even spoke a word in my direction again.

I’m literally quiet because they never talk about anything I would think is important and I can’t fake it. I immediately got on my phone and started playing Pokémon go and was in my own little world. I hate when people tell me how uncomfortable my peaceful state of mind makes them. Sorry I can’t fake like I’m interested in you and make small talk about waffles 🥴

    I had a therapist in high school who considered being an introvert a form of mental illness. He claimed it was part of "Antisocial personality disorder" I was also on the autism spectrum. I went through some form ABA education (Appropriate Behavior Analysis) My parents and aunt wanted me to become an extrovert. They said being an introvert was bad for me, I'd never be successful. They would force me to go to large family parties. They forced me to talk to every person there. I had to shake hands and make small talk. My therapist said I spent too much time alone. I had a few friends and went out socially with them. I was friends with them since I was in grade school. My therapist and family said I needed to make new and more friends. (They wanted me to spend time with mentally ill and people on the autism spectrum) They said I should "stick with my own kind" SMH! I fought them and kept my old friends. They decided to commit me to a mental institution then make me live in a group home. Where I could "get socialized. They told me "it was for my own good" They wanted me to stop being an introvert because it would make me become a sociopath. I had a huge breakdown. I had no privacy there. Had to share a room with 3 other people. I wasn't allowed to have anytime to myself. I had to be with someone at all times. After my breakdown, my parents realized that it was wrong to force me to change. I told them I was an introvert and not "anti-social" I am glad there are CZcams videos toady that show being an introvert isn't bad.

      Do it. You'll be happier if you make friends and meet new people and have fun conversations. A study found that introverts who were compelled to act like extroverts were happier as a result.
      It's not really that hard to talk to people. It takes a bit of practice, but once you get it down it will seem weird you ever thought it was a problem. One thing to remember is that most people are just like you- most people are shy when meeting someone for the first time, most people get self conscious sometimes, everyone sometimes struggles to come up with stuff to talk about. All that is natural, even relatable to most people.

    Being an introvert is actually a gift. You can be someone who can focus on yourself and don't care about the society and live your own life. While many where sad about quarantine I actually loved it. I don't like these family interactions or social groups but prefer one on one conversations deep ones with people whom I love and care about. You can be an introvert and a great communicator. Introverts can have great careers and can be truly successful.

    Today morning a classmate just attacked me for being an introvert.
    It hurt me a great deal coz it's not the first time someone is doing that. Only that this one was a little extra harsh.
    Being an introvert is really difficult especially in college where everyone expects you to always have something to say about everything. They expect you to be outgoing and the "hello" you say while passing by is never enough for them.
    They take one's quietness for a weakness,low self esteem and confidence. They literally take you to be a weakling! Incapable of doing anything at all.
    Whereas the truth is that introverts prefer it that way. I personally hate small talk. And unless something is really of importance/ relevant to me at that particular time,then I'd rather not get involved in it.
    But of course there are two people you lose yourself around. You can talk about anything with them freely.

    Generally speaking as an introvert who was married to an extrovert for many years, extroverts don't tend to enjoy introverted company because introverts don't feed their constant need for interaction stimulus. The same is true for introverts, who find extroverts tiresome and exhausting to be around.

It was like I'm being ignored every single day, my best friend she also didn't care about me, she never cared for my opinion, she never listened to me whenever I wanted to say something. And thanks to them now I hate talking to others, I have to think a lot before saying anything, I don't like going out at all but I'm happy with myself because I don't have to force myself now and I like being alone in my own world.

    I’m 15 and although I’m young, I’m already pretty content with myself and the fact that I’m an introvert. I’ve come to understand that I’d rather be alone than out with my friend group, and I don’t make myself go out with them if I don’t feel like it. I just wish I could find someone who understood that about me and maybe even has the same tendencies and traits. My friends don’t understand why I don’t always want to hang out, or why I barely ever talk when I do, and it sucks. Sometimes they even subtly poke fun at it. I’ll be tired and doing my own thing and they’ll say “oh her social batterie’s just low” and giggle or when they make plans that’ll take more energy to be a part of they’ll say to me “I hope your social battery doesn’t die.” Anyway, like I said before, I just want to meet someone who understands and doesn’t get annoyed with me when I have to back out of premade plans or when I don’t say much on certain days. Someone I can sit in comfortable silence with when there’s nothing more to say, or on the flip side, talk for hours about a specific thing that really interests us both. That’s all I want rn ugh.

    Thank you so much for making this video. My whole life I’ve been known as the “shy girl”. I was and still am terribly insecure about it. Fast forward to about a month ago, I went to a party and I felt so out of place and my mind keeps telling me it’s because I’m an introvert so I’m shy and can’t talk to people. When you said “Accept that you can’t please everyone” I suddenly felt the urge to cry. Of course I’ve heard this before, but living in the society of extroverted people your constantly being told being an introvert is a bad thing, or automatically assume you want help. I need to realize that one party, and one situation like that doesn’t define who I am as a person.
    Another thing I struggle with is that I already don’t have a lot of friends, and when I’m not listening to people I’m perfectly happy with that. But there is this one friend (let’s call her Sarah). Ive known Sarah since kindergarten and we’ve been friends ever since, but lately (the past year) ive noticed we’ve been drifting apart. We don’t have alot in common anymore and ive been trying my best to tell Sarah my interests and all that but I don’t think she’s taking the hint. I feel like I’m so afraid of losing her even though I’m not any happier having her as my “friend” right now.
    I’m so happy that I got to watch this video, because it isn’t another case of “extrovert thinks you need help” and it’s from another introvert whom has struggled with the same thing as me. I’m really hoping instead of “becoming more social” I can accept myself on this journey of self improvement.

    Disadvantages of being introvert
    1. We can't get emotional support from people quickly
    2. It's difficult for us to get into a relationship (Especially if you are a male)
    3. Sometimes you will feel like you are not being invited to the group
    Advantages of being introvert
    1. You will learn everything by yourself without any complain and you will learn how to move on by yourself

      But even when I have opportunities with friends and family etc, I find myself sometimes still wanting to just do my own thing and keep to myself
      Too much socializing is draining for me

    When you stop trying to please other people and their opinion about you doesn’t affect you, then you reached a different kind of freedom. It doesn’t mean you are an asshole, or weird. You are You, and you have to accept yourself and love yourself just the way you are. No outside approval is needed.

      You know as an introvert I actually tried to open up a bit...but people won't listen to my side of the story. Which in turn made me feel like going to my own secure shell is good for me so I started to listen to others instead. Online friends tho are a lifesaver I got! I shared a few things with them & they listened so I actually got more confident in sharing my side ^^ tho yeah sometimes it's really annoying when you want to share your side of the story but nobody is willing to listen (and a fact for me that I can't even tell if they're actually listening to me or not)

  • @ganeshats
    @ganeshats Před rokem +3

    I totally agree with you. Felt so good to see this video. Pain point is, introverts need to be a bit lucky. When you are not going to boast your achievements on other face constantly, you need a manager who notices the work you do silently.
    Similarly in all walks of life.
    I went to few pubs recently and there was a mixed emotion.
    I'm dancing and having fun by myself. But also want to get someone to dance with. And that involves approaching ppl and talking with them. Which is hard. When I see ppl do it easily, it can hit hard.
    Also, after few hours of pub, I 'need' some silent me time to feel better.
    It will be hard to understand for many that pub or dancing in club is fun but also mentally tiring to have a constant crowd of strangers around you.
    And your point of knowing we are cheating is very true. Whenever I think of acting like extrovert, that's what comes to mind. I know I'm acting. I know it's not me. And it feels like I'm cheating the other person by being a fake person.
    Quite a hard spot to be in

    It always annoyed me when someone tells me to "speak" or "say something" just for the sake of talking when I really have nothing to say because I am either thinking or observing or just listening. One of the reasons I hate attending parties and gatherings is not because I hate people but because I wouldn't want to ruin other people's mood. As some people aren't used to quiet people like me, they would often tell me indirectly that I'm killing the mood of the party/gathering. I can talk if I actually have something to say or if there are people who would actually listen, but most of the time, they just want me to talk for the sake of talking. They don't really care. I spend my words like I spend my money. I spend it wisely and with intention.

My cousin who is an extrovert i was so jealous by seeing her because everyone use to praise her everyone use to say that learn something from her and everyone love to be with her I use to feel very bad but from some days I stopped to be pity on myself and started to enjoy myself and thanks a lot for this video to help introverts like us ❤️

    I am a 14year old & I talk to myself, daydream & stay alone almost the entire day. Sometimes even my mother calls me mad & says that I have developed a really bad habit because I talk to myself.
    I love reading books & drawing, but I also like the idea of Adventure & travelling (though I haven't traveled anywhere). I laugh at myself - on my own & prefer exploring things on my own. Everyone of my relatives describes me as a shy child with not much confidence to talk (they always ignore that I score 90% above in most tests without any tuitions - even though they themselves ask how much I scored). Actually I mostly express myself freely in the comments section of CZcams videos.

      Well, its more social anxiety than being introverted
