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.
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.
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😂
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.
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
*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 ❤️
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.
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’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'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 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💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
@@praiseyah3 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
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.
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.
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
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’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❤️
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🥰
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 💖💖♥️💓
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.
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
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.
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 😊
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 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.
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).
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.
0:02 omigosh Batman, Toph, Katniss, Raven, and Squidward!!!!!🤩🤩🤩 You don't know how happy this made me seeing this, thank you!!!!!!!! I'm screenshotting it! Also, I LOVE this animation😍🥰
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...
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’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 🥰❤️
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.
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.
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 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. 😊
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
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 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
As a mostly extrovert, i agree. I always felt like i was a mix of both, but when people asked me, i always went with extrovert, because i am more extrovert that introvert. When i am with my friends, and people i know, i tend to be an extrovert (wich is most of the time), but when i am with people i don't know, i'm not that much of a extrovert. I'm not saying i am an introvert, but i don't like that much talking to people i don't know Also your animation looks AMAZING! I appreciate people who put this much effort into their videos!
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.
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.
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... :/
I'm an extrovert sometimes introvert and seeing all these comments makes me wanna hug you all you deserve a hot cup of coco and a warm blanket on a cozy couch
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!
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.
@@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 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.
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 🤷🏻♂️
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
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
Yeah the teacher thing is very true but my teacher lets me work alone if we have an art, reading, and writing projects that involves a group because he knows I don't like being around other students and being pressured by a groups so he is one of my favorite teachers because of that
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.
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.
With your story. That's how people look at me too. As just a shy or nervous person. But i'm just introverted, and the people who know that i am one don't say that i'm a bad person for just being who i am!😊 But still people misunderstand me alot. Some people think being an introvert is a problem, and others think i'm shy or nervous. But that doesn't stop me from being who i am and will always be!😊
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
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.
I never really understood the differences between these two exept that one was quit and one was loud but this helped me to understand that there is way more to it then just that and that that’s not even correct. It also helped me to know if I’m and extrovert or introvert. And I can relate to you alot.
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
Greetings to this channel, I've learned that my quiet way is not a bad thing. I'm not broken. I can be just as good as anyone. I love being alone, not talking much, observing, and that makes me feel good. I'm fine with it, thank you.
As an extrovert watching this, everything you said was about the opposite. What I have learnt over the years, is that you cant make people happy. you say people make fun of introverts because they're too quiet? people always tell me to shut up, or im too loud, or I need to calm down and etc. im scared for parent-teacher interviews, because the teacher will say "grades are average, but is too loud". While yes I have found my "clique" of friends who are very extroverted, and I definitely catch peoples attention. I try to be quiet and not talk, but then people ask why im so quiet? like do you want me to shut up or not? I tried to go out less, and focus more on reading like my mother has told me, but im burnt out, bored, tired, and I need to socialize. I am sick so I cant even go to school, and my mother took away my phone so I can study. my mom wont even let my listen to music while im studying because she thinks silent is the best option, and to be honest, silence distracts me because I end up focusing on small sounds. when I am at school in groups (unless im with friends), usually I can't pitch in any ideas because they think I don't listen in class. (I understand my grades aren't great, but these people in some of my classes haven't even known me for a year). Sorry for the long comment, but the whole thing about "extroverts are usually praised" definitely got me thinking, because most of my life has been people telling me to shut up.
I’m sorry to hear that I think which ever one you are comes with its pros and cons. Because it can feel like if you’re an energetic and boisterous person sometimes people don’t realize the nuances to your character and they just wrote you off as loud or annoying. But I also think being extroverted also allows for more leadership opportunities and social connections which could lead to more chances to go places, see new things, have new experiences and networking. We need people that are enthusiastic, ambitious and outgoing in the world. Could you imagine if everyone was introverted 😂😅 yeah some people might think your annoying but that’s your natural personality. I do think that when it comes to being more introverted because you don’t have as big of a social battery you may just avoid a friend group/ family altogether in gathering which could make you seem distant, not present, and rude. It’s like while extroverts especially the more energetic ones may be seen as annoying, obnoxious, unfocused and loud the introverts might seen as mean, cold, uninterested and sometimes a pushover. I hope you find people that like you for you I honestly admire people who can not only be great with people, friendly motivated but can get so much energy from others I think it’s cool. Don’t let those haters dim your light I’m sure you’ll be able to find people that treat you right. I think both introverts and extroverts are just as important as each other as I feel like we kinda balance each other out *ambiverts looking at us from a distance* Sure maybe introverts might be seen as more introspective, thoughtful and quiet according to some but may be less likely to speak their mind, lead and leave their comfort zone. We need y’all extroverts don’t forget that l. Take care (hang in there, good luck with school).
So true. Either way, you’ll be judged by people you don’t know. It’s great you have realized that these are people who slightly know you. Advising someone to read books is very general: Did you read books you weren’t interested in? Or did you read books you had an interest in? Because reading books that you are not particularly interested in is draining for every personality, more if you are an extrovert. You probably have areas you are interested in this life, such as medicine, finance, economics,sports… Reading about these areas won’t really make you feel drained. For studying, if you want better grades you have to focus on studying silently but. Because as you know that’s how examinations will be like. Wish you best luck:)
Best definition I have found: An introvert is someone who is more comfortable focusing on their own thoughts and ideas than what's happening around them. They may also prefer to spend time alone or with a small group of people, rather than in large crowds. When I am around people I trust and and feel comfortable with, I am talkative and light up the room. I actually love giving presentations and public speaking. However, once I am done, I need several hours for reflection and quiet time to recharge. My coworkers often have to remind me "Hey, there's a meeting, you coming?" Because I am deeply focused on my own projects and tasks, but I am always ready to help others. I reject the idea that all introverts prefer being alone, because it's not true. I don't like large crowds, but having one true friend or family around me is never a problem.
@@Psych2go the animation was kind of comedic and kept my attention the whole time. The character’s movement and action suited their personality and I could feel the life from it if that makes sense. Almost cartoonish in a way (the good, quality, kind of cartoons), but with the animator’s own twist and style
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!
Interesting video I am an ambivert, I have many extroverted friends and introverted friends. A girl I know is an omnivert, which is a very extreme thing (sometimes she is exaggeratedly intovert and other times extremely extravert) I can really adjust myself to other people no matter which person type they are.
I'm an extrovert but most of my life people often wanted to be quiet and a lot of selective when it comes becoming friend with people, this video is clearly from a point of introvert but still good job.
I am really introverted and selective with friends. First off, I rarely approach other people, ever. People approach me or set me up to being approached. In the equivalent of sixth or seventh grade or so, teachers would often seat me next to louder kids to try and make them tamer. But I’m just sitting there like “What’s in it for me? I have to deal with this, I don’t want to sit next to […]. I have been friends with a lot of different kinds of people when I was younger. Some of them were really extroverted. Others introverted and rather geeky like me.
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 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, as an introvert, can confirm this. 👍
Same.
Same here, too!
Same here 👍❤️

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 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
The 'you just need to participate more!' from teachers OMG i can relate to that-
great vid btw :D
relatable
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.
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.
Same here
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'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 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💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
@@praiseyah3 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
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.
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
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 :)
@@fabianograsso6761 spirituality
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
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🥰
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 💖💖♥️💓
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.
@@MKbravepotato 10000%
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
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 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 😊
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.
Thanks!

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.
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 a audio engineer, i can say that your voice is amazing, so relaxing to listen to 🥰
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
0:02 omigosh Batman, Toph, Katniss, Raven, and Squidward!!!!!🤩🤩🤩
You don't know how happy this made me seeing this, thank you!!!!!!!!
I'm screenshotting it!
Also, I LOVE this animation😍🥰
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...
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’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 🥰❤️
I have been an introvert and a loner my whole life and I prefer peaceful and quiet evenings at home too. I also read a lot of books too.
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.
0:29 I'm not an extrovert but I feel like extroverts get told to "shut up" when they talk too much. Like I literally heard a teacher say that
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.
Your animations and calm music are enjoyable to watch while learning more about my temperament
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 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. 😊
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
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 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.
As an introvert, I can confirm this is the truth! Thank you for this video :D
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 a mostly extrovert, i agree. I always felt like i was a mix of both, but when people asked me, i always went with extrovert, because i am more extrovert that introvert.
When i am with my friends, and people i know, i tend to be an extrovert (wich is most of the time), but when i am with people i don't know, i'm not that much of a extrovert. I'm not saying i am an introvert, but i don't like that much talking to people i don't know
Also your animation looks AMAZING! I appreciate people who put this much effort into their videos!
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.

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.
I love the new animation style!
It looks so energetic and expressive!
I never was interested in psychology but these videos really interested me! The drawings and animations make me feel pleased
I really love her voice. The narrator

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!
the animation is so good- i love the story telling with this video as well.
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.

Yup , that's exactly what I do.
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 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.
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 :)
Another excellent video, and you have so many, many excellent videos. I'm an introverts mostly and an extrovert sometimes.
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
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 🤷🏻♂️

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
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
I hate being social
Me to aaa how annoying it is like all eyes seeing you and trying to makes problem for you
This video really helped me understand introverts and extroverts and I’m pretty sure I’m more of an introvert
People always say im shy and im too quiet
How do you feel when people say that about you?
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
Yeah the teacher thing is very true but my teacher lets me work alone if we have an art, reading, and writing projects that involves a group because he knows I don't like being around other students and being pressured by a groups so he is one of my favorite teachers because of that
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 watching your videos because I want to make sure I understand everyone, can be there for them, and make sure they feel comfortable
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.
With your story. That's how people look at me too. As just a shy or nervous person. But i'm just introverted, and the people who know that i am one don't say that i'm a bad person for just being who i am!😊 But still people misunderstand me alot. Some people think being an introvert is a problem, and others think i'm shy or nervous. But that doesn't stop me from being who i am and will always be!😊
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..

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.
I never really understood the differences between these two exept that one was quit and one was loud but this helped me to understand that there is way more to it then just that and that that’s not even correct. It also helped me to know if I’m and extrovert or introvert. And I can relate to you alot.
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
Being a strongly introverted person myself, I thank you lots for this video, Psych2go. It makes me understand my brain a little better.
The art is so cute! Keep it up!
Thank you! 😄 What did you like about this art style?
As an introvert your videos encourage me thank you
So excited for this video!
Yay! How did you enjoy watching the video?
I enjoyed the video because I really love the art style!
Greetings to this channel, I've learned that my quiet way is not a bad thing. I'm not broken. I can be just as good as anyone. I love being alone, not talking much, observing, and that makes me feel good. I'm fine with it, thank you.
As an extrovert watching this, everything you said was about the opposite. What I have learnt over the years, is that you cant make people happy. you say people make fun of introverts because they're too quiet? people always tell me to shut up, or im too loud, or I need to calm down and etc. im scared for parent-teacher interviews, because the teacher will say "grades are average, but is too loud". While yes I have found my "clique" of friends who are very extroverted, and I definitely catch peoples attention. I try to be quiet and not talk, but then people ask why im so quiet? like do you want me to shut up or not? I tried to go out less, and focus more on reading like my mother has told me, but im burnt out, bored, tired, and I need to socialize. I am sick so I cant even go to school, and my mother took away my phone so I can study. my mom wont even let my listen to music while im studying because she thinks silent is the best option, and to be honest, silence distracts me because I end up focusing on small sounds. when I am at school in groups (unless im with friends), usually I can't pitch in any ideas because they think I don't listen in class. (I understand my grades aren't great, but these people in some of my classes haven't even known me for a year).
Sorry for the long comment, but the whole thing about "extroverts are usually praised" definitely got me thinking, because most of my life has been people telling me to shut up.
I’m sorry to hear that I think which ever one you are comes with its pros and cons. Because it can feel like if you’re an energetic and boisterous person sometimes people don’t realize the nuances to your character and they just wrote you off as loud or annoying. But I also think being extroverted also allows for more leadership opportunities and social connections which could lead to more chances to go places, see new things, have new experiences and networking. We need people that are enthusiastic, ambitious and outgoing in the world. Could you imagine if everyone was introverted 😂😅 yeah some people might think your annoying but that’s your natural personality. I do think that when it comes to being more introverted because you don’t have as big of a social battery you may just avoid a friend group/ family altogether in gathering which could make you seem distant, not present, and rude. It’s like while extroverts especially the more energetic ones may be seen as annoying, obnoxious, unfocused and loud the introverts might seen as mean, cold, uninterested and sometimes a pushover. I hope you find people that like you for you I honestly admire people who can not only be great with people, friendly motivated but can get so much energy from others I think it’s cool. Don’t let those haters dim your light I’m sure you’ll be able to find people that treat you right. I think both introverts and extroverts are just as important as each other as I feel like we kinda balance each other out *ambiverts looking at us from a distance* Sure maybe introverts might be seen as more introspective, thoughtful and quiet according to some but may be less likely to speak their mind, lead and leave their comfort zone. We need y’all extroverts don’t forget that l. Take care (hang in there, good luck with school).
So true. Either way, you’ll be judged by people you don’t know. It’s great you have realized that these are people who slightly know you. Advising someone to read books is very general: Did you read books you weren’t interested in? Or did you read books you had an interest in? Because reading books that you are not particularly interested in is draining for every personality, more if you are an extrovert. You probably have areas you are interested in this life, such as medicine, finance, economics,sports… Reading about these areas won’t really make you feel drained. For studying, if you want better grades you have to focus on studying silently but. Because as you know that’s how examinations will be like. Wish you best luck:)
I smiled when i saw Katniss Everdeen in the intro. I love the Hunger Games book series
Best definition I have found:
An introvert is someone who is more comfortable focusing on their own thoughts and ideas than what's happening around them. They may also prefer to spend time alone or with a small group of people, rather than in large crowds.
When I am around people I trust and and feel comfortable with, I am talkative and light up the room. I actually love giving presentations and public speaking. However, once I am done, I need several hours for reflection and quiet time to recharge. My coworkers often have to remind me "Hey, there's a meeting, you coming?" Because I am deeply focused on my own projects and tasks, but I am always ready to help others. I reject the idea that all introverts prefer being alone, because it's not true. I don't like large crowds, but having one true friend or family around me is never a problem.
Side note: I love this animation. It’s really really good, like amazing. Super cute and charming
I'm glad you like it! What do you love about this animation?
@@Psych2go the animation was kind of comedic and kept my attention the whole time. The character’s movement and action suited their personality and I could feel the life from it if that makes sense. Almost cartoonish in a way (the good, quality, kind of cartoons), but with the animator’s own twist and style
I’m an extrovert and all my friends are introverts and I want to understand them so thank you!
I love being an introvert.
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!
Interesting video
I am an ambivert, I have many extroverted friends and introverted friends.
A girl I know is an omnivert, which is a very extreme thing (sometimes she is exaggeratedly intovert and other times extremely extravert)
I can really adjust myself to other people no matter which person type they are.
I'm an extrovert but most of my life people often wanted to be quiet and a lot of selective when it comes becoming friend with people, this video is clearly from a point of introvert but still good job.
I am really introverted and selective with friends. First off, I rarely approach other people, ever. People approach me or set me up to being approached. In the equivalent of sixth or seventh grade or so, teachers would often seat me next to louder kids to try and make them tamer. But I’m just sitting there like “What’s in it for me? I have to deal with this, I don’t want to sit next to […]. I have been friends with a lot of different kinds of people when I was younger. Some of them were really extroverted. Others introverted and rather geeky like me.
