Decompression Means A Lot After A Long Day
Introverts are mistaken in our society. They don’t hate people and don’t simply want to be alone. They do, however, feel stressed in circumstances that many extroverts regard as exciting. While these distinctions aren’t absolute—they can range from barely noticeable to extreme depending on where someone falls on the introvert-extrovert spectrum—they are important for introverts and extroverts to understand.
Because introverts and extroverts undergo life in various ways (and our civilization is more geared toward extroverts), introverts can benefit from stress management strategies tailored to their quieter nature. If you are an introvert (or if you love one), it is critical to understand some of the needs and characteristics associated with a more introverted personality. In fact, those with higher levels of extroversion are less stressed as parents.
