- Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Do you usually prefer working alone or in a group? Do people usually make you feel comfortable or uncomfortable?
We all have different strengths and weaknesses, and understanding this can help you build relationships. Extroverts are usually energized, outgoing, and talkative while introverts are reserved, shy, and prefer spending time alone.
Are you an introvert or an extrovert? In this video, we will be talking about the REAL difference between introversion and extroversion.

I’ve actually been wanting to learn about psychology all because of this channel. One day I will have good success.

I really got into psychology because of this channel and it has actually helped me to get through my days.
Happy learning! Psychology is a wonderful world.
That is so amazing to hear! We are glad that we motivate you to study psychology
yess follow your dreams! you can do it! :D
You go ! Dont give up ❤️
I, as an introvert, can confirm this. 👍
Same.
Same here, too!
Same here 👍❤️

I am a introvert and I love when I am alone at home doing my own thing
Yes! I can totally relate to you as well
Me too
Same
Yup I agree.

I wanted to say thanks for this video. I'm an extrovert, (ENFP if you happen to understand Myers-Briggs) and I always believed that extroverts and introverts just have different strengths and weaknesses. I let my introverted friends be quiet when they want and try to give them some attention when they seem to have something they want to say. I've found that just works best.
In return, they let me extrovert. Just like y'all prefer to be quiet, I always feel better when I'm being eccentric.
ENFPs seem to be the ideal intermediary between introverts and other extroverts.
Same here. I am ESFJ and I believe most of my closest friends are introverts. With them, I do not talk much. Silence is an efficient way of communication with them. That way, I as an extroverted, am calmed as well. However, there are also interesting and fun people.
Also an ENFP here!
As an introvert (INFP) I really appreciate this comment. I feel like the best friendships have acceptance, where everyone is allowed to express themselves.
As an enfp, i hope we both can agree we have our fair share of waiting to be alone.. but having extroverted frnds doesn't help, they want more and more of your personal alone time. Where as, introverts get it, they understand the need for solitude. So when my introverted frnds want me, I'm there for them- an extroverted girl ready to social for them so that they can give their battery😂
*I always love when you bring videos about introverts!*
Nowadays I accept myself as an introvert much better than before, but it's still good to reaffirm our characteristics (virtues and flaws) and tastes through videos like this one, besides showing others that it's okay to be who they are ❤️
I agree also...ONLY 43 LIKES BRO
Same! Though I'm an ambivert so I guess I like these videos for slightly different reasons....
Dude they push introvert content constantly
@@jv0189 Fr, this video isn’t compare and contrast it’s introventing 😂
I'm introvert. Im not accepted it. It make me depressed
Being an introvert, I was being told that I was not normal as being too quiet and that I might need help. But over the years, I feel more comfortable being who I am and not being what someone else expects. Though, there's still a minimum need to meet and fake conformity.
Being an introvert myself, this hit me hard, because I understand from a perspective that not everyone will understand what we go through. That is trying to blend with society, since society is dominated by extroverts like my brother.
Yup
Same thing with me and my brother
Yeah what did we do to the extroverts we have nothing against them what do they have against us ( my school thought I was being rude when I went non-verbal because I got too stressed because well let the fact that somehow I was the popular kid in school speak for itself when I somehow became the popular kid my life became he🏒🏒 I could not get a break the 40 other kids in my class -15 kids would not shut up to me and my brain’s like: bro there are 15 other introverts in this class)
Stay silent until they try to attack you. Metal heads are unapologetic introverts that love misunderstood talented music. I'm a knot maggot for life. People=sh*t
As an introvert myself, I understand you very well! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I act like an extrovert but I gain energy by being alone
Same
So an extroverted introvert
you have full extroverted traits but you have the energy of an introvert. You are likely an extroverted introvert. You have the mind of a true extrovert in an introverted body.
Then a social introvert
Heh same
I all time when i am alone Getting some good ideas or imagine some stories where i am protagonist or interfere a already existing Story line, its really interesting to imagine
The 'you just need to participate more!' from teachers OMG i can relate to that-
great vid btw :D
relatable
I’m an introvert and it is draining to be social even if it’s a fun activity. My acting level is worthy of an Oscar at this point.
And I DO love dopamine but not from people. Puppies, ponies, baby animals and physical activity are my super dopes❤️
I’m the same way as an Introvert
Iam an introvert as well but when drunk I suddenly don’t find it as draining as usual
This felt really heartfelt. I like how you guys talked about introversion like it was something that other people should try to understand and defended introverts when they don't fit in all the time. I also don't like how people are expected to go against their nature in the way introverts are. It doesn't really seem fair to me.
i don't go against myself anymore i just accept being quiet unless God quickens me.
I’m definitely more of an introvert. I’ve never been comfortable in large social settings, especially with my former medical condition. Thanks as always for these videos!
I'm an ambivert, but mostly I'm a extrovert with social anxiety

@@sams_enfp oh yeah, I live in Poland, that's why
I’m an ambivert but more introvert.
What I struggle to express is that even though I don't talk much and would rather spend time on my own projects, I still want to be invited, loved, and cared about.
It's the same for me! Feel misunderstood often for this in these last years.. but i resolved this issue by developing courage to ask (people and some time God). Spirituality helps us introverts :)

I am someone who is introverted, has traits of an HSP, and deals with social anxiety. Here are some of the comments I have heard over the years. Don't you get lonely? You're not contributing. Stop being anti-social. You are too shy. You're not engaging with us. You are too sensitive. My personal favourite experience over years is being written up on communication skills at school and at work. With that being said the people that have told me those things don't see the other side of me. Which is, I am a good friend. I am a good listener. I am a good cook. I am respectful. I have a good sense of humour, I am a deep thinker and I am a fiction writer.
When you pass judgment on someone introverted or extroverted, you can blind yourself to the true person in front of you.
So true my dude people always ask why I’m so quiet and in my mind I be kinda annoyed like this is how I am or I’m going through something like trauma. Being bullied in middle school made me a more quiet person. Because I really was disgusted with people and kinda angry at them for being a piece of shit in middle school.in high school I was pretty scared of being friends with people because I didn’t wanna get judged and just mostly stayed to my self until I graduated and had no friends. Tbh it made me really sad and hurt my feelings on a huge level.i mostly make a straight face to hide who I really am.I’m 22 now and don’t hate relationships anymore really but still lonely person and just trying to live life and be myself even if no one likes me and yeah being a introvert hard as shit but I love it💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
@@praiseyahuah yeah I feel you browther I hope you doing okay and btw I’m 23 now my birthday was in February 12 and I’m experiencing the feeling of love and met this awesome girl that my best friend I got rejected by her in January and she said she accepts my feelings for her but she can’t accept it because she not ready for romantic stuff yet but loves me very much as best friends and it really nice though.tbh it kinda funny now because I been saying romantic stuff to her like I love her very much and very openly with my love and not embarrassed either. She like she loves me sooo so much that it makes my heart leave my chest. I think she still in love with me but we going slow with and taking time to know each other and I think she beatiful inside and out. She showed me her bad aside and I was really shocked and amazed because she looks dapsone innocent and precious but she drinks acohol and uses fake id at school and I think it really awesome and rebellious.I guess I was thinking about being perfect because I didn’t wanna be abandoned. She told me no one perfect. I told her about my bad side and my hatred of people controlling others and my controlling dad and how much it disgusting me and I’m really rebellious and love be free and she still accepts me for me and I accept her and I regret super love her❤❤❤❤❤💙💙💙💙💙🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 So much I could die with a huge smile like Naruto and luffy on my face and she makes me feel safe and super love is truest amazing friend ever happy and excited for all types of things
Btw I’m a ISFP
I've been a silent viewer for many years and I don't know what it is, but this video compelled me to comment. I have never in my life felt so... understood. People around me do really misunderstand me ALL the time. I'm introverted, and it is so exhausting sometimes, and I feel sometimes that I hurt people's feelings because of this. I'm 25 and I just started studying, and I remember being told that I do have to socialize with people more often because "that is what being a student is like", and omg it gets too much for me sometimes, it drains me. But I am trying to accept myself as a introvert. I just wish that people, especially my family, could understand this. I feel like I'm a problem that needs to be fixed...
I can relate with this video. It literally feels like people see introversion as a mental illness rather than a personality trait; as once SGT Ducky said.
The part where we introverts need to act like extroverts so we're not swalled by the society limbo is so real. Doing this all the time is so exaustive.
Much love for this channel ♥
Y’all completely forget about how 80% of the time in school were forced to be quiet. Also it’s not about acting extroverted, it’s about using the mouth you were given to talk and communicate. That’s why introverts are ‘overlooked for leadership positions’ if you can’t manage your team and/or company for long periods of time, your not right for the job.
what society, I have 2 work from home jobs, never need to talk to nobody, never need a car to go to work, never need money to spend on useless weekend "meetings", never need any friends, never need a wife, never need a gf, laughs silently with 6 figure salery spend all the money on myself on steaks, entertainments, Tesla paid with cash, and all the time I can have for myself and laughs at them extroverts who went through divoice and have to pay child care, life is good when you don't need to deal with nobody.
@@rest1585It's better to have a leader than listens to others than a leader who won't shut up and loves the sound of their own voice.
Nah, I don't care. I'm not shy or anything, I just don't feel like talking to people -unless they talk to me first.
@@themidnighttavern6784its better to BE a leader yourself. I hate when people give me orders
As a person who is a natural introvert, this video hit HARD. I swear, sometimes it feels like people don't give introverts enough credit and never seem to realize that it's ok to favor alone time more than others. This video was great, but in a way, it hurts. It hurts that I have to be reminded that there are still many extroverts out there that ridicule introverts for "not going outside" or "being social" enough, and see us as these nobodies who lock ourselves in the house, driving ourselves insane. This video really means a lot to me, thanks for speaking up for me and all the other introverts out there.
As an introvert I feel better thanks to you... I always worried about my place in society, I didn't feel like I belonged here but now I know that there is a room for me too🥰
As an introvert, the good leader part is actually true. I've seen many histories about people who barely speak being really good with presentations or group organization. This happens to me either, even if im one of the quietest person in my class my colleagues often chose for me to be part of the group and make the presentation part, i can be even better than extroverts when it comes to this.
I definitely related to this video as an introvert (ISFP). The Good Listener attribute of many introverts shines more than people may assume at face value.
There really is a reason why we have 2 ears and 1 mouth.
I related so much to this video too! i’m an ISFJ 😊

So I prefer being alone most of the time. It's calming and relaxing. But for some reason, I feel like I need to hang out with people. They are all very nice...but no one has ever truly felt like my friend. A few weeks ago, one of my friend groups sorta had bad thing, and I found myself alone. It honestly felt like a breather, but half of me is still like "Go find them and talk to them!" It's so tiring...
As an extrovert who used to be an introvert, I really don't get the whole "being an extrovert is celebrated by most people" 😂 I ain't gonna lie, most of my life has been people telling me to be quiet. I honestly feel more harshly judged now that I'm a big ball of energy😝interesting alternative perspective!
That's the problem we have in society. You're judged no matter who you are, which is why it's important to be yourself and not try to fit in with the rest of society.

Exactly
nah frr😭
Maybe you yell a lot and talk a lot too- even for the majority of people. Hmm I think it'd be interesting to talk with u. I'm introverted and my parents always tell me I'm broken and depressed.
Uhm I'm not saying it is baaad! On the contrary, I love animated people :)
But sometimes I find some disgusting people who talk a lot about something they shouldn't and they annoy me but, hey, look, keep on it. You're just perfect the way you are, just have a kind glowing heart always
Introverts get misunderstood easily. Introverts are forced to blend with others and constantly talk and be around others. I can relate with this video completely. I try to change myself and make effort to be social and it is very tiring. Everyone accepts and prefers extroverts easily.For introverts it is very pressurising. Lots of love 💖💖♥️💓
I remember always being told that i never asked questions in class, that was because I was too scared to, as if the question I would ask would be incredibly stupid.
As an introvert the most relatable part to me was being asked to speak up and participate more, then having to go against your instinct to please... So exhausting.
Really nice and concise video, keep up the good work 😊
I love how detailed and in depth this video is!! I also love this type of animation!😊 ❤
Thank you so much!! What do you love about this kind of animation?
I think it’s the expressiveness and the movement. Although past videos were expressive and sometimes had movement, this one had a more exaggerated art style and rather than cycling through two or three frames before changing poses, this has fully animated transitions to propel the visual engagement while holding on slow pans to give a sense of anticipation. It lets you know that there’s more coming because the video is still in motion, while being slow enough and holding long enough to allow the viewer to digest what they’re looking at.
The older animations aren’t bad though. They have their own low pressure pleasantry to them. Softer, and slower.
@@Psych2go It's super cute and not too realisltic or too weird-looking
As an introvert I feel so bad when I'm at school. No one understands me. I'm froced to working in groups or talking, so my teacher can grade me. I got an F because I couldn't bring myself to go in front of 30 people and speak. I'm usually a good student so, it made me sad. And also after 6 hours of being forced to listen to all the talking, laughing and sometimes even loud clapping of my extroverted class I was so drained and I needed a break but we had another lesson of P.E so I had to force myself to run and do exercices while completly exhausted. At the end of the lesson my group wanted to watch the boys playing football. I just asked for a permission to go to the bathroom and I stayed there for a while in the dark so I could rest. 😓
I have always felt alright at school, with a small group of close friends, most of the time. I do hate group projects most of the time. Especially when it’s with people I don’t know well, which is the vast majority of people. I don’t know what to expect from them (except for often lacking good coordination).
as an introvert i agree i loved books when i was a kid.
Do you have any extrovert traits as well?
@@Psych2go well when i have a melt down cuss of my schizophrenia i get very aggressive and extroverted but my natural real state of mind is an introvert.
I love being an introvert.
Yeah I had the same experience when I was younger, the only difference is that I was defiant, and didn't care what the teacher, or peers thought, its not that I didnt want to fit in, I just was stubborn. Believe it or not that made life harder in a different way.
I hate being social
Me to aaa how annoying it is like all eyes seeing you and trying to makes problem for you
I really love her voice. The narrator
Thank you for the feedback!
As a audio engineer, i can say that your voice is amazing, so relaxing to listen to 🥰
i’m an introvert and i can relate to some of this. i love your videos on sadness depression and introverts. i don’t have depression but i can feel pretty depressed sometimes so i love to watch ur videos. it makes me feel better 🥰❤️
im an extrovert but sometimes my social anxiety/lack of energy gets in the way
I just want to say, that this channel and the content you create i just wish i had access to learning about psychology like this when i was 16-18 yrs of age.....all these years self analyzing my brain trying to identify the pieces of puzzle and you are helping me to understand the pieces of the puzzle, just wish i would been educated like this at school......I mean your channel should literally be taught in schools all over and you have such a calming voice, its not only reassuring but i get a very "hey it not all your fault but there is something we can learn to do about, but in just a really positive mannor that has me healing through learning.
I am LOVING the animation. Even if you are unable to listen to the video you can stil watch it and get "it." Perfect way to reach kiddos (and some adults) what makes people different and how that's ok. We're a bag of jelly beans
Thank you for your feedback! Will be sharing to Bry (animator) - Cindy
THE ART IS SO CUTE AAAA I LOVE IT SO MUCH
As an introvert myself my teachers always said "She's a great student but it wouldn't hurt for her to participate more" or my therapist thought I needed to talk to people more
People always say im shy and im too quiet
How do you feel when people say that about you?
" I prefer to stay at home and reading rather than going out "
Yup , that's exactly what I do.
Ambiverts and omniverts quietly crying in corner
For real tho 😢! They always forget about us!
Society pressures are the worst. Sometimes i feel like i don't even know what I truly like. Feels like I'm just doing stuff because the word finds it productive, or familiar with what they like. I also tend to do better when there is not a lot of pressure. Problem is there are thing's i wish to complete that requires team work. That team work requires me to perform to a certain level to complete the activity
I love the new animation style!
It looks so energetic and expressive!
Your animations and calm music are enjoyable to watch while learning more about my temperament
As an introvert, I can confirm this is the truth! Thank you for this video :D
Make: Introversion vs Social Anxiety vs Avoidant Personality Disorder.
Please.
This whole episode is like it was telling about myself. It's a VERY wise episode. Hard for me to find proper words to describe how important it is and how well it makes me feel inside with myself. It assures me that my nature is not bad, not boring. Just different and it is so OK. There should be A LOT more content with such things, which mark those subtle differences between introvert and extroverted people.
p.s And this animation style is one of the most sweet I ever saw on this chanel. I hope deeply that this artist will animate more for psych2go x3
I can relate! I'm an introvert but learned social skills to be like an extrovert because that's what society and even the education system tells us to do :/ but it drained me... :/
As always a great video❤️ keep going with the content!
Thank you! Will do! What topics would you like to see?
@@Psych2go would you mind to do one about misophonia/audiophobia?
This video really reminds me of Sadness from Inside Out. Joy was the leader of the emotions, and she was an extreme extrovert. Sadness, on the other hand was in introvert who was always overlooked, cast aside and in Joy’s shadow. Joy always overlooked and underestimated Sadness and treated her like she was nothing but trouble 4 her, Riley and everyone else cause she made Riley sad. But Sadness’s introversion was a strength. Because she read the manuals, she knew the shortcut 2 get 2 the train station was dangerous, but the more extroverted Joy and Bing Bong didn’t listen 2 her. Also Sadness was empathetic towards Bing Bong and was able 2 help him feel better by relating 2 his Sadness. Joy eventually realized that Sadness was important and needed by Riley, and Sadness was the one who ended up saving Riley, instead of Joy. I honestly think Sadness would make a much better leader then Joy.
Another amazing and educational video psych2go! I've learned something today and would like to thank you for that. this new art style is cute! I'm loving it
the animation is so good- i love the story telling with this video as well.
I was an extrovert at first and they said i was too loud and annoying and now i am an introvert and they say i am too quiet and boring -_- (i aint the only one like this)
Time to not give a fff
I never was interested in psychology but these videos really interested me! The drawings and animations make me feel pleased
I encourage myself to be more outspoken when in school activities, even though it doesn't make sense to them sometimes.
Also in the classroom, they probably find me boring, because what they all do is laugh and laugh. That's not a bad thing, but it happens every day so it's kind of awkward if someone approaches me in a certain scenario.

I love watching your videos because I want to make sure I understand everyone, can be there for them, and make sure they feel comfortable
The teachers telling your parents you should participate more,that was me with every parent teacher interviews
Relatable to me too. They often phrased it as me having interesting things to tell, which isn’t inherently untrue. It’s just that I like keeping things to myself, or confined to the small group of people I love most.
Love watching your videos !! Thank you for your work ❤️❤️
Thanks for watching! What is your favorite video from Psych2go?
@@Psych2go There a lot of videos ! I love each of them
What topics would you like us to cover?
@@Psych2go I dont have much ideas but I think topics about different kind of disorders (like borderline, anxiety) can be interesting
This video really helped me understand introverts and extroverts and I’m pretty sure I’m more of an introvert
I am an extrovert, and nonstop quiet from the introvert is how to drive me bonkers. The silence is deafening, even if it's not a sign that anything's wrong.
I'm an introvert and I've dealt with some extroverts who were so annoying.
So this is how you guys feel? As an extrovert, I try to make friends with introverts,but when I walk over to them, they give weird looks of disgust. Also,being an extrovert isn't all sunshine and rainbows. I've been told to shut up by so many introverts and....it hurts my feelings because that's just who I am.
@@nickmeyer4129 While they could be nicer about telling you to stop, you did start it by trying to talk to people who don't want to be bothered.
The participation bit is exactly what I am going through at work currently. I am definitely an introvert (also on the Autism spectrum), and my boss constantly says I need to speak up more. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, though, because I exceed my work expectations and I participate in office meetings and conversations when I think necessary, but no one gets it at my job. I need a job that caters to introverts lol.
@@bekindist happy to say I am no longer at that job, my new one is better and caters to my accommodations! I have started to slowly socialize more, though! Thanks!
OMG THE ART IS LITERALLY SO ADORABLE I'M IN LOVE WITH IT
I’d love to see a video about how event a in the outside world can cause someone to regress or have a change in behavior, like Covid-19 making all of us introverts, or how the past few years can make you change who you’re attracted to and why.
I love your videos! Thank you for sharing them!
You are so welcome! What's your favorite video?
@@Psych2go I loved your video on 5 Life Changing Habits.
Another excellent video, and you have so many, many excellent videos. I'm an introverts mostly and an extrovert sometimes.
I am likely the most extreme introvert kind there is. I have nobody in my life, no friends, no neighbours, no coworkers, no family. I go weeks without seeing humans. I go weeks without speaking. It is comforting because I know I can not become a victim to a social predator again. There are *far* worse emotions than loneliness. Loneliness is actually a very desirable emotion as compared to try crippling emotions others can inflict on us. I have grown to appreciate loneliness because it means I am doing everything to avoid becoming someone fake girlfriend or false friend's victim again.
I have ADHD. It was discovered very late, because of my introverted nature. When every other child ran around doing stupid and pointless activities (as I saw it) I instead preferred to sit on my chair and read a book. Aaaaand hope not to get hit by the ball the other children were playing with. It’s quite funny to think of how I’ve changed - and how I haven’t.
Introvert with ADHD, and funnily enough I was the complete opposite. When I was say 5 or 6, I was a very outgoing person who got along well with people, but as I grew older I became more and more shy and began to value more time by myself. Unlike you i believe I got diagnosed sometime in Elementary school
So excited for this video!
Yay! How did you enjoy watching the video?
I enjoyed the video because I really love the art style!
first time in a long time they made an animation that i like
thank you for sharing this beautifully animated and well spoken video 🙂
The art is so cute! Keep it up!
Thank you! 😄 What did you like about this art style?
I love this video. I learned so much about why I love reading and writing!
As an introvert I find it very taxing to listen for long periods of time especially multi tasking trying to work. I love sprints of conversation just not marathons! I don't think extroverts always realise the level of patience and energy that goes into listening for long periods even if we really like the person so when we might eventually reach the stage of feeling it's just too much and say we need to concentrate on a task in silence for a bit/want to be alone/read or write and not talk or seem a bit irritated it can be interpreted as anti social or uncaring which can feel so unfair!😅
I've had this a few times and watching this video shows how it's a misunderstanding of how one another's brain functions work. I guess if you don't ever feel like that as an extrovert it might seem confusing. That's not to say extroverts aren't fun and interesting - just built differently. 😊
Group projects are a nightmare in university!
This video perfectly explains the differences between introverts + extroverts, I am naturally an introvert because of childhood trauma I had to face that made me mentally mature quicker than most people but I have to act like an extrovert because of the biased society I live in. Every parents meeting with my parents, the teachers always complain about me being too quiet or not participating enough even though they fully expect me to be able to, just because I achieve high grades. They think that not participating is 'limiting my potential' even though there are other ways to achieve potential that isn't just participating in class. I quickly forced myself to act more extroverted purely just to fit in and make friends but over time, you start to realise how bad this is for your mental health. At first, I lost others trying to find myself but then I lost myself trying to find others. I changed my personality to the point that I don't know who I actually was before I started acting to fit into society. However, over time I am trying to be more open-minded and I am slowly regaining the missing parts of myself that I had previously lost. I hope everyone can also just be themselves instead of acting like someone else to fit in, as this is what is truly good for YOU not for the benefit of others. Stay healthy everyone :)
I know how you feel. I'm an introvert as well. I'm sad to say I'm also on the autistic spectrum but very high functioning but it has and still causes me a great deal of suffering in life. Back when I was in high school I had a terrible teacher who among other things didn't know how to mind her own business and was highly unqualified to teach a special ed class. At the time during breaks I would put my earphones on and walk around the hallway listening to music or doing it in the school library or whatever. And she would often get on my case about that. If I recall correctly she said it makes me look isolated and gives people the message not to talk to me. At the time I didn't know I was an introvert and why exactly I did those things. So I just told her I need to do that to unwind and clear my head. She still wouldn't leave me alone. In fact it got so bad, she kept pestering me about going outside to play ball with the others even though I really really didn't want to. At some point she basically nagged me into capitulation and I went outside and pretended to play soccer with other kids. I did this literally and probably solely just to shut her up and get her off my case.
As for my fellow students, they didn't seem to really care I'm an introvert, the main ones who gave me trouble over it during my school years were actually certain teachers. Despite the fact that they had good intentions. Nowadays I'm in a better place, thank God although not without difficulties. Just thought I'd share and vent if anyone's interested 🤷🏻♂️
Now this really woke me up. As an introvert man who's mostly quite it & love being inside my home i can see this 😂
I’m pretty sure I’m mostly introverted but I do become an extrovert when with friends because they give me the courage to be myself
You described me well in this video. I thought something was wrong with me as a child often teased as being shy.
I agree on the whole thing, I mean, I am an introvert after all but I wanna say whoever animated this made it so expressive, it's so cute :3
we all say we are introverts because we always think we are overlooked, I think about 70% if people who claim to be introverted are likely ambiverted
I lean mostly towards introversion. I’ve become more introverted as of late. I never used to avoid social situations until a few years ago. But when I’m around close friends, my brother, my parents and such, I can get extroverted. But that’s about the only time that happens. I’m really introverted all other times.
@@jarmoliebrand2005 So isn't that ambiversion? introverted in one place, extroverted in another.
@@traznian Everyone is ambiverted. But on a scale of introversion to extroversion, I lean towards introversion a lot. I’d say I’m closer to introversion than ambiversion.
Thank u for this vid psych2go! Btw, I love how you told something about urself so you could relate to others! And I agree, my parents always pressure me to be outgoing and social, my mom explicitly said that there is something wrong with being an introvert! For example, they always pressure me to sing in front of others because I sing so good, they don’t understand that I don’t sing for others, I do it for me. Or they always pressure me to talk to others and them instead of letting me get lost in my imaginations, I’m not even allowed to go into a different room without them questioning me! And they also don’t understand that I hate small talk, they don’t even try! But because of you, I realized that it’s not wrong to not be social, and people don’t understand that there’s so much more to me then what you see on the outside, I’m a really kind and creative person, if only someone would understand me and listen to my imaginations without judging them! Thx for telling me that being an introvert is not a bad thing psych2go, I want to help the movement to raise awareness about psychology and mental health, because of you guys. Thx so much!
worst is, when they call you crazy when they don't understand you.
I recently found out that I was an introvert. I thought I was an extrovert the whole time.
So many things that I did or people have said to me when I was a child are starting to make sense now.
As an introvert I keep getting asked if I'm okay and a billion questions and called boring 😂. Extroverts are just too loud and obnoxious and do not think before speaking. It becomes highly irritating pretty quickly 😒
Ouch, my feelings as an extrovert TRYING to be myself.😤😠
I don’t even really get asked by other people how I’m doing. I just have couple of people I’m close to and I don’t really need many more. I can imagine people finding it hard to breach the confines of my friend bubble. I have (had) more extroverted friends. Those people approach me and we hit it off. But I do find quite a few extroverted to be a bit obnoxious. I’m just sitting wherever, in my own headspace. Making up a story, headphones on. And then there’s this guy pulling antics. I think all sorts of people have the potential to be likeable. They don’t really have much potential to be approached by me, though.
I am introvert myself. And i couldnt agree more, people sometimes told me i was a good leader, even if i didnt spoke much i gave awesome advices, and like you said i felt overwhelmed. You sure are a frest psychologist
My teachers are the same. They say "He is a very good student, but he needs to talk more loudly and with more confidence."
Yes, yes.. I heard that before, that I'm a good, intelligent student but I need to participate more. This worsened my depression because I was forced to act like most people around me. It drained me easily I got tired and sick more easily. And I'm always viewed as a snob even though my friends who know me understand why I mostly like being alone.
I consider myself an ambivert as well but I get a lot of anxiety and panic attacks when I'm alone like something's going to haunt me like I'm a victim of girl's jealousy and bullying which is haunting me until today how can I over come this...
Which ultimately made me introvert like the fear of talking to girls and getting myself into problems..
Jesus loves you. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13
Wow been a long time since I watched your vids you’re voice changed haha cool I’m all for it!
I smiled when i saw Katniss Everdeen in the intro. I love the Hunger Games book series
The animation looks awesome!
Thank you so much for your feedback! What do you love about this animation?
@@Psych2go I don't know how to say it but this animation is way different from the rest and I just love it!
In high school I was an ENFJ, but since I am now an INFJ. Either way I have always felt misunderstood. I took a different personality exam I paid for and I’m 50th percentile in extroversion. Lately I’ve been more drawn to staying at home like an introvert because I have found I have better control over myself.
Thank you for this✨ Now I've finally learnt atleast some differences between introverts and extroverts😄
As an introvert your videos encourage me thank you
I'm introverted, but I also have social anxiety(I think). Usually, when my class is loud I rest my head down, agitated and exhausted. When I'm in social situations, I avert my gaze and nod my head. I don't want to be rude but...like..I don't want to talk! I'm not being rude, I'm being honest. But I can't say it because it might offend you. I really, actually hate people due to this. Even my friends; talking abt nasty stuff I ain't wanna hear! It makes me wanna avoid people! LIKE SHUT UP!!! That's why I like animals better than peeps! It made me quiet and shy. I was so energetic and social when I was younger. I'm in 6th grade now, and I never say a thing in school...
I’m not that socially anxious that I prefer animals, but I just can’t and won’t expose myself to new people easily. I didn’t often contribute to things in the classroom. With a form of autism, do often have too much noise around me so I quickly resort to putting on headphones. I hold my passions close to me and only the people I’m closest to know anything about them, really. I know I could attract people with similar interests if I exposed myself more, but it’s just against my nature. I don’t really often get tired when talking with friends. I don’t even have a handful of peers I’d call friends, but I rather quality over quantity. I can commit buffoonery with friends, but I can talk about serious topics too.
