Bruh I’m an extreme Extrovert. I always want to be around people and be engaged in society. Literally all the time.
The pandemic was the first time I understood how my introverted friends feel when I pressure them to hang out. I used to be notorious for just constantly hammering them to do stuff with me if I knew they were home and had no plans.
When we locked down, I literally felt like I was mentally cracking. I could not deal with it at all. Massive depression and heavy alcohol usage. Heavy anxiety and a lot of self hatred just constantly reliving every shitty thing I’ve ever said. I was exhausted and just wanted to sleep despite doing nothing all day. It was rough.
That being said, it definitely put the whole introversion thing into perspective for me. It made me able to relate where before I couldn’t. I could not wrap my head around how some people just wanted to spend life at home when there’s so much world to explore! People to meet and things to do! So overall, it did make me a better person/ friend.
I still hope to never fucking lock down ever again though.
I remember the first week of the pandemic extroverts were crying all over social media about how hard it was.
Meanwhile my lifestyle didn’t change at all.
