I started posting these doodles on Instagram a couple of months ago, as a spontaneous way to express how I was feeling. I was surprised that other people related to them so strongly. It tells me that I'm not the only introvert trying to find their place in an extroverted world.

I hope these comics reinforce to other introverts that, "Hey, you're okay. Just as you are."

YES! This! I hate it when I actually try to engage in conversation and someone interrupts me. After 3 times, I just clam up again and don't speak for the rest of the day.

Why are people so obsessed with deciding whether they're introverted or extraverted. How on earth does that help you or anyone else?? Just be yourself and shut up about it... it's like people who have no other labels put on them want to be special and just decide they are now an introvert. Why do you need it so much?? We're all different, some of us like going out and others don't, it doesn't make you anything. Try living with anxiety or a social stigma and see how much you need to call yourself something to feel special.

Because we live in a world that favors extroversion and treats introverts as there's something wrong with it. See, we'd gladly shut up about it, but the extroverts won't stop badgering us about "going out more", "returning calls", or "meeting people".

yes, but going with him would be even worse, as you don't like crowds, the movie is probably boring and hey, there are so many interesting things to do at home! besides, would you really like to be with a person who goes out often? i used to be and it sucked.

That missing $4 will most likely be deducted from the poor cashier's or staffer's salary. And to top it all up with food waste :( I hope this story is not based on real life. There's no winners here...

Are you sure this is being an introvert, or just suffering from depression and low self esteem (they seem to go together)

My mother would regularly ground me- I couldn't leave the "yard". That meant I was confined to an 886 acre audubon wildlife sanctuary and a pristine, unpeopled river. I'd disappear for days! (Turtles are our friends.)

For me it's cap, small beard, phone and headphones, water bottle (sip for no talk or dehydration problems , throw for distraction and quick escape attempt ) , laptop bag with chargers sunglasses books and sometimes laptop, pen in pants for possible use or as a weapon if a touchy happens, and trainers or boots focusing on atk or df respectively.
