In this difficult time of the Covid, Covid 19, coronavirus, which ever you prefer to call it, staying at home has never been easier, especially when you're an introvert. But what happens when you're someone who is extroverted or ambivert? Do you think staying at home would be difficult? None the less, if youve been keeping up with the Myers-Briggs Indicator Type trend, then youre probably familiar with introversion and extraversion. But sometimes personality tests, although they mean well and have helped with career-building and personal development, they can still be. well. very black and white. In a perfect world, wed only have to worry about two options. But, people are more fluid than that, and sometimes, things can get messy. What does it mean to be an introvert, extrovert, or ambivert?

can someone explain to me what's wrong with me?
i love to go out when my friends ask me to go somewhere i'll go i'll come cause i know when i say im not feeling to go but go i have a good time
when someones speaking to me i know how to hold a conversation and keep talking to them
when i'm asked to go somewhere i'll go, when my friends want to go somewhere i'll go and when i'm with my friends i'm usually carrying the conversation or talking or making alot of jokes
BUTTTT when i'm home and i hear someones coming over like my brohers friends or girlfriend or someone new like i know if i go outside and start to feel it out i can hold a convo with them and be fine and let the nervousness go away
but beforehand i feel nervous and sometimes well most of the time in this scenario i feel A TINY BIT MERVOUS TO GO OUTSIDE but i also feel like not speaking to anyone. like i would love! to go outside and hold a convo with that person who came over but something inside me just wants to stay in my room even though i know if i go outside i can have a good time or hold a decent convo with them but a part of me doesnt want to go outside and meet anyone or speak to anyone
i hope someone gets what i'm saying
like that's the only introvert thing about me other than that sometimes when i see someone in public i know i may not go up to them amd just leave it be that as well but yh
i love to go out if im asked or at least plan to go somewhere
or if someones over i'll talk
but can someone explain to me what's going on with me staying in my room?
EVEN OVER text like out of nowhere i can just text a random stranger and hold a lovely convo with them i can even send a voicenote and go deep into a topic and move onto another topic and even make them laugh if i wanted to telling them a story etc or about my day.
maybe it's me and having a tiny bit of social anxiety even though i know i can thrive in social places?
but then i doubt myself sometimes if im in my room for too long

Im not really sure what I am. Socializing makes me feel so great and instantly boost my mood my energy and everything. However I prefer to work alone a lot of the time I just dont want to hang out with people and I find myself craving that alone time. When I was little I was extremely extroverted and social but now I kind of purposefully isolate myself. I mostly do that because Im kind of insecure anxious and awkward I was afraid of saying the wrong thing or breaking some unspoken rule. I often feel awkward around people and I get that feeling of being watched often. Sometimes I try to talk to someone and the conversation goes nowhere and sometimes I wanna talk to someone and conversation goes really well. I dont really like asking for help or working in groups because its kind of tricky for me to do and compromising is not my strong suit. I care a lot about being social and I want tons of friends and everything however I kind of love being alone and Im fine being alone the whole day and not talking to a single soul. The little voice in my head is all I need. I honestly have no idea what I am I feel like Im somewhere in the middle. I consider myself a shy extrovert because I feel kind of drained without social energy and then soon as I start talking to people I quickly feel a lot more fulfilled and happy and energetic but most of the reasons to why I seclude myself is because Im Shy, insecure, anxious and awkward even though I have the internal desire to start a conversation and just jump in. Id be internally calling out to people just too nervous to voice what I want to say. At a party I usually stay to myself because Im not sure how or when to join you on a conversation and I dont want to annoy anyone because some people find me weird and annoying and if I get my social attention I will almost jump on people like a puppy as soon as they show any sort of kindness to me because being shown kindness or attention its not very common in my life and I love it when people show me it.

If you are able to read the whole thing, can you atleast tell me whether Im an introvert or an extrovert or maybe an ambivert?
1. Its kinda really hard to choose, I dont really hate or like meeting new faces that much but I do like to go to new places and sometimes feel like I wanna go there again, I do prefer alone time and when I see a bunch of people talking I feel embarrassed as if they were talking bad about me, i do have the guts to talk to a person that hates me a lot (to talk to them about why they hate me) without being embarrassed
2. I do feel like leaving quickly when I see a bunch of people but dont really get that much drained, I dont show that much interest on talking to anyone
3. I do sometimes think as I speak but regret it ALOT and have it stuck in my memories, so Id rather choose think before you speak, I feel like talking about myself sometimes but most of the time find it really embarrassing.
4. I really like going out with friends a lot, but due to the quarantine I dont do it that much, I sometimes remember the times I was talking with friends and wish to talk to them again, I do hang out with new faces but i definitely wouldnt talk that much if they werent in my talking level

I've never heard of an ambivert until I saw this video. I've never met someone like this in my life. It's an interesting concept, but I think it is an attempt to suggest that there's a consistent middle ground to stay in when in reality, all of us are most naturally on one end of the spectrum or the other, but are capable of moving towards the middle, or all the way to the other end, temporarily if a situation calls for it. Trying to stay at that opposite end, or even in the middle, requires mental effort that can also affect our physical bodies as well. That sustained effort to pull against our natural tendency is what is so uncomfortable and sometimes even exhausting about trying to do something extroverted when you are a natural introvert and vice versa.
It would be interesting to actually meet a true ambivert and spend enough time with this person to tell if they are actually an introvert or extrovert but are somehow oblivious to that, or if they really are naturally in the middle.

I always thought I'm an introvert. But now I think I may just be an ambivert. I always like to stay home but that's just because of my social anxiety, if I didn't have that I would probably go out more often. On the other hand I'm a very reflective person who always thinks before speaking and if I were to go out I'd do things like going on a hike or biking with just one or two friends.
After watching this video I'd say I'm an ambivert but leaning towards introversion

reply

I think I'm an perfect Ambivert. I love being with people who don't let me walk behind everyone when there isn't enough space for 3+ people to walk together. But I also adore my alone time. The reason I lable myself an introvert is because I have become comfortable with not hangin out with people because I always get left out. I enjoy being alone in my room more than being left out when hanging with a group of people

I am so glad to have discovered this. I always assumed I'm a social introvert (I may be still) but there is a great chance I'm not. I love socializing with people but also love being home alone. If I'm not home alone enough I get tired or I think too much about how tired I'll be when going with friends. But at work I'm full of energy and ready to talk to everyone. Life's great mysteries, but I need not fit in a box.

Extrovert inrovert.
Trust me everyone is ambivert every person at least in my country they are. Sometime they want go out sometimes not sometimes you want to speak with people sometimes not brother this is for everyone the same. You think after party people say i want party again no they wanna rest ofc.
You think after watching 3 days netflix you want still stay in home i cant belive that.

Whenever ever it's my first day of school I got always have feeling my stomach tightening and my body is shaking so much and I'm thinking a lot what I'm gonna say when I talk the I'm sweating so much I feel like going to throw up at any time and feel so sick and feel like I'm going to have a breakdown at any time. who got the same feeling as me too?
reply

I still dont know which one I am. Ive had a history of getting in trouble for speaking my mind which has led me to hardly talk at all unless Im with my friends, Ive been craving time with my friends a lot more than usual but I get really shy in social settings, and Im pretty sure Im one of, if not THE MOST indecisive person on the planet
reply

My best friend moved in with me, she's an ambivert and barely knows anyone close by. Her need to meet people seriously makes me struggle as an introvert with social anxiety lmao. I usually spent time with her so she won't get depressed but damn it's so exhausting and idk how to help her, I just dont enjoy companion too much.
reply

For me, i love new people and places but get really tired around the same people everyday. On the other hand i love being alone and can go weeks without seeing people but after 2-3 weeks alone i really need to socialize and i am down for any scale of socialization (intimate or huge parties)
reply

No matter you're an introvert, extrovert, or ambivert, you're unique and special in your own way. People are gonna judge you anyway so stop trynna be someone else and start exploring yourself.
Also, being an introvert is NOT a mental disorder. it's absolutely ok to be an introvert.

reply

Ngl I think im a shy Ambivert
Most of my life has been indoors in silence so quarantine didnt affect me much, But the rare few times I do go outside I enjoy it quite alot.
Although meeting new people or people that speak a different languange always scares me idk why

reply

2: 12 no I think after I speak them also I feel like an ambivert I become extroverted when I'm with close friends but when I'm sad or angry or any negative emotions I want to be alone but suffer from being alone with negative thoughts and feelings so umm what am I?
reply

I invented a system to solve this:
You are sent alone to a place for a year (far away and no contacts with anyone)
Introvert: I enjoy it. Finally some free time!
Ambivert: I'd survive it.
Extrovert: That's not possible. I need at least someone.

reply

How is my MBTI results never shows up extroversion while this video clearly explains myself as an ambivert? Is that because I'm more to being Introverted in my ambiversion?
Also look at the comments. Many of those are ambiverts just like me: )

reply

I don't believe in the concept of having an ambivert in the social spectrum. A person can only be introvert or extrovert. There is no 50-50%. A person can have 49% extrovertness and 51% introvertness, and he/she is an introvert.
reply

What about Omniverts? I think that is what I am. Its similar to an Ambrivert, youre still somewhere in the middle of an extrovert and introvert. The difference is each side will show up at random times or days.
reply

its really hard for me to define wich one i am because i have ADHD and when im calm, im an absolute introvert. no doubt. but when im very messy in my head, im kind of a mix between ambivert and extrovert

Are you more of an introvert, extrovert or ambivert? Comment below. Also, interested in animating /illustrating for Psych2Go? Contact editorialpsych2go. net with your work sample to work from home.

I'm definitely an ambivert as I like to shift between having alone time and doing my own thing and going out to hang out with friends and I'm also pretty talkative despite my speech impedement.
reply

Yea, me taking the test is just full of me just pausing on questions for 30 minutes because of how obvious it was asking if I was introverted or extrovert and me taking the test to find out myself.
reply

Most of the people are Ambiverts it's just someone is more introvertish extrovert or Extrovertish introvert.
Very fewer people are only Introverts or Extroverts. Majority are Ambiverts

reply

Firstly I thought that I wasnt neither introvert nor extrovert cuz I enjoy talking with people as much as staying alone, but it appears ambiverts exist, so now I know who I am
