I’m not convinced everyone needs social contact. Vast majority, yes. Many many that think they don’t are really just anxious and do need it. But not all.
Pretty overwhelming evidence that we evolved over millennia as a social species. Even people like the Unabomber, who lived alone in a cabin and claimed to hate all or almost all people, craved social contact so much that he wrote a 35,000 word manifesto and insisted that the biggest newspapers of the day publish it. But yes, we are each individuals, with different needs. So, as with medication, titrating and getting the right dose of people in our life is important.
Thank you for uploading this on Sunday 😃

I think that people with Schizoid personality disorder usually don't need social contact
