There is no place like the internet. Especially if you are more on the introverted side. Since the beginning of time, extroverts have been put on a pedestal for being more social, outgoing, and better at life. But a lot has changed since the use of the internet boomed. Online friendships, communities, and even shopping are the new normal. The internet has provided a safe space for introverts to express themselves and connect with others without having face-to-face interactions.
But besides that, introverts are still introverts, and even though now we as a society are more accepting, some meme-provoking traits are not going away any time soon. Therefore, to laugh and reflect on ourselves, an Instagram account called introvert.feels was made. It is time to explore, normalize and make fun of what it feels like to be an introvert in the wild.
Let us know which of these is more relatable than the others in the comments below.

I've taken to literally stopping and saying out loud, "NO. Bad brain!" The intrusive thoughts were always horrible, but man are they getting worse during perimenopause.
The terms introvert and extrovert have been used only since the 1900s, but especially nowadays, it is widely known and is used to understand why another person feels and acts differently from you. In some cases, it can be quite difficult to determine whether a person belongs to one group of people or another since we all have introverted and extroverted sides to us. The primary difference between extroverts and introverts is that extroverts tend to be energized by external stimuli, such as being around other people and participating in social activities. On the other hand, introverts are energized by internal stimuli, such as their thoughts and emotions. They tend to be more reserved and reflective and enjoy spending time alone.

You've hit the nail on the head with this one... and sometimes it feels like you LITERALLY have!
Researchers estimate that extroverts make up 50 - 74 percent of the population, so there are rather fewer introverted people in the world. Though, not all introverts are at the same level of introversion. A lot of the behaviors are learned through experience. Even if a child is born introverted, by having enough positive experiences with social time, they may enjoy pushing the top of their range. Negative experiences may cause a child to become more reclusive and quiet.

Imagine the result when someone's watching you park into that only available spot
The topic of introversion and its impact on individuals and society has been studied by researchers, writers, and experts in psychology, sociology, and other fields. They have explored how the trait of introversion, which is characterized by a preference for solitude and a tendency to be inwardly focused, affects people's lives and the way society views and interacts with introverted individuals.
Society's expectation of extroversion and constant connectivity can be challenging for introverted individuals, who may feel pressure to conform to social norms and may be drained by excessive social interaction and stimulation.
With the world being more digital than ever, introverts can finally bloom. But socializing on the internet can have its toll as well. Some people claim that even though in real life they are introverts, online they tend to lean on the extroverted side. But for introverts in all aspects of their life, it is perfectly normal to feel as though social media drains you like a wild party.
The realization that you can feel differently about your social and online life is almost proof that they are just two different realities that coexist. So with that in mind, if we can have two separate personalities, we have the capacity to accept the reality that there are people in the world who think and feel differently than us.

So yesterday I fancied myself a real treat with what would happen if tomorrow I go to the bank and there will be people trying to rob it. I saved everyone in couple scenarios and was a real hero, just for the fun of it. But mostly I died in various ways. I also checked how it'd go if I just laid on the floor all the time being scared, but that wasn't juicy enough for my brain so I decided to think about the way I somehow get on the robber's side, unwillingly but everyone throught that I was their accomplice all along and I was panicking. Naturally, after such a turn of events I had to start thinking about the way I'd try to run and hide from the police and lead a life of a society's outcast.

sometimes if I put some effort into it, I can navigate a bit. Like the scenarios of weird random stuff is still there but at least I'm arguing with myself for it to be more realistic or a bit less tragic, things like this only

This is why I read until I fall asleep. So many "what ifs" to go through.

I'm prepared for the intruder/disaster scenario - charged phone, fire extinguisher, a tool/weapon - all within arm's reach. It's all so foolish considering how proud I am of reaching the toilet in the middle of the night.

I have managed to stop that by reading a book until it falls on me because I am asleep. Reading occupy my brain enough to stop thinking and I am able to sleep in about 30 min with that trick. (doesn't work if I put the book down before sleeping though)

Oh, true! It does help with artistic pursuits for sure! Where can one get your work to read, if I may ask?

The only reason I pick up when someone calls, is because nobody calls me to begin with, so it's usually something important if they call.

I hate when I accidentally make the wrong reaction face when I'm on autopilot listening to someone talking. Makes for a very awkward moment.

I’m being generous if a third of this list is actually about introverts, whose defining trait is needing to ‘recharge’ by mostly being alone/not interacting with others. So, apparently BP/ Reddit need to hear this again: - not all (but some) introverts have social anxiety (and extroverts/ambiverts can have it too) - not all introverts are overthinkers (and extroverts/ambiverts can be overthinkers too) - not all introverts have, somehow?, trouble sleeping (and extroverts/ambiverts can have it too) - not all introverts are depressed: I really don’t know which idiot made that one up.

For the eight millionth time: social anxiety and mood disorders ARE NOT THE SAME THING AS INTROVERTS. For the love of god, bp. Why are we still doing this once a week???

Obviously they have no clue about the difference between introversion and anti social personality disorder which is what a lot of this sounds like. Introverts like people…just not all at once and not all the time.

Social anxiety, shyness, and being introverted are not all the same thing. FFS

I am SO glad I am not the only person irritated with the fact that the majority of these were actually memes about mental illness and NOT introversion. Labeling these as introvert memes is about as ignorant as assuming all introverts are shy. I am extremely introverted and not at all shy. And not every person who'd rather hang out at home with their dog and a good book on a Friday night is necessarily depressed. Very few of these were actually relatable to a genuine introvert.

I'm an introvert but I don't dwell on it or feel it's a bad thing or a handicap. Maybe 2 or 3 of these things were relatable two me. Not sure what the rest of them were about.
