so thanks to this video I started to consider if I'm introvert or introverted extrovert. For a long time I thought that I'm just introvert. I rly love to talk to people, but appreciate when I'm alone. Sadly in my life idk why everybody dislikes me and makes fun of me or just don't give any attention to what I'm saying also thinking that I might have depression, but too scared to tell it somebody that I know personally how I feel, idk why I just feel like I can't, only the bad thoughts are running through my head, as what could happen, if I would tell my parrent about my thoughts and feelings like that they will care for me so much and then idk would some doctor say that I don't have it, in my eyes I would then practically waste money and time. Idk school is rly on me, also practically half of the class are assholes that are picking on me, already managed to get one of them their dc account permanetly banned, but me being a dumbass I told two people about it and they told him that I was the one who got him banned, so now he's trying to make fun of me in every way possible, he kicked me out of class dc server (cuz he was one of the admins) and then proceeded to photograph me and make fun of me on that discord server (even changed the icon of the server to my face) and they're calling me npc and I'm just asking where the slur originates from. School is also hard we have some teacher who just shows us something on projector, says few words and then he moves on to another thing and then we write a test, but I don't know when to use what so I'm practically failing and I feel like a total failure. My friends only talk to me when we go together for a coffee and even then they mostly ignore me. PS: damn that's a long message, but I feet that I need to tell somebody how I feel, cuz I'm slowly getting insane (sorry for bad english, hope someone's gonna read it if yes thanks I appreciate it)

Yep, im an introverted extrovert, its confirmed. honestly i was kinda surprised but i guess it makes sense since my mom always said i used to love dancing, singing and talking to people when i was little, but then ever since i got in primary school (i had alot of bullies) my mom said i changed. now im a total introvert and in middle school. and i still blame those bullies for making me so nervous everywhere. They kept treating me like their junior just cause i said my birthday is 20/10 (October 20, they always say im born at the year 2010 ( they even made me feel like i WAS born in 2010) and say im dumb and tell me to do all sorts of things for them when im born at the same frickin year as them, ITS JUST CAUSE IM SMALL, AWKWARD AND MESSY AND MESS UP MY WORDS ALOT (im dyslexic but i didnt know back then, but i guess now i can tell people, dont blame me if im shy, blame the BULLIES (and other life obstacles when i was in grade school, and just cause they made me so quiet and shy there were many other bullies as i grew up, but this bully was the one i mostly remember since she would also target my best/only friend back then by calling them a mom or something

I can relate to almost all of those things. like feeling drained with some people being shy with a new environment and such. I'm mostly an extrovert but as a homeschooler, I don't do all of my work hanging with friends, I do all of my work by myself listening to music. I don't like teaching certain things to people who are less mature then myself, and sometimes I'm really really immature especially with my friends and sometimes my parents when having a fun time. but then there is the smart side of me, who is (not to brag) really smart and allot more mature then the other side. my parents and friends always tell me to use the smarter side of me more often, but I don't really like being mature -haha. I'd rather laugh with my friends and hang out and make weird jokes and stuff. I just thought I'd share my story.

I'm actually great with people but I'm insecure and end up thinking I'm not. Just with time I realize it wasn't bad. I enjoy being with people, just not new people and definitely not a lot of them or for a long time because I like privacy to do my stuff and relax. I like to go out a lot but just when I got the energy to do it, like not when I'm feeling bad, but if I have to, I just keep it normal and try not to show that I'm not okay. I think introverted extrovert fits for me but the insecurity sometimes makes me look like an introvert, and especially when I'm with new people for a long time. I may even end up looking socially awkward just because of how tired I am. Is anyone else like this?

I'm An Ambivert But I'm Closest At Being Extrovert. I Hanged Out With 2 Of My Friends Often, Sometimes 5 Of My Friends. It's Easy For Me To Talk To A Stranger But I Couldn't Keep Up At Being A Friend With Them Unless They Are Interesting To Me. I Sometimes Love Being Alone In Room But It Get Very Lonely Most Of The Time So I Would Text My Friends And Ask Them To Chat Or Calls. I Interact With Most Of People Except For The Cool Gang Since They Mostly Egostic And Made Me Felt Inferior.
Edit: Being Alone Sometime Makes Me Moody So I Prefer Talking To People And Recharge Myself By That, And I Am Not Drained By People Around Me, I Love Being Around Them (Most Of The Times)

I have 4. 5/5. I am actually pretty decent when meeting new people. But other than that I think this fits me. Like I love staying in my room/house playing games and watching videos. But I also like to go out everyday for a bit. I usually go to circle k and have a great relationship with the workers there. And I also go with my mom to help here when shopping and to just spend time with her.
Then there is my one of my sisters who just gets under my skin and just drains me. So thanks for the video it was really informative.

I used to think I was an introvert but At this point i think I'm just an Ambivert with anxiety.
Being around people I don't know we'll, or in large groups of people not only gives me anxiety but it also drains me, even if I'm not the one saying anything 98% of the time. Most of the time I do want to talk to them but don't know how so I'm just silent.
On the other hand, people I do know and like give me energy, I could spend all day/multiple days with them and still not be drained.

I feel this definition fits me much better than ambivert does. I'm not ambivalent, I'm mixed. I am a natural introvert, though after my car accident, when I realized how many thousands of people actually know and like me enough to want my recovery sincerely, I forced myself to be more extroverted and realized how much I LIKE people. In small doses. Sometimes not so small. Sometimes I just need to pull into my shell for a week or two.

Always been an introvert. I like being alone and often need to but other times it is the other way around and a lot of my friends nowadays think I am very extroverted when Im really not, I have just attached myself to other people. For years I hated meeting people and speaking to strangers so I had a limited friend group. Oddly enough now I feel I can start a conversation with practically anybody. Great video

I relate to all of this signs a lot! I have always thought I was introvert bcoz of my love for being alone and get energy through it but also I'm really good with my friend groups, classmates and also I can talk to new people like total individual stranger easily but when it's a group of new people's I might get extremely shy until I'm comfortable. Just like the video says I guess I'm an introverted extrovert!

I used to have only one friend in 6th grade and now I'm in 10th and my friend group increased to about 7. I used to be highly introverted but after I found my best friend I guess I kinda changed now I'm more socializing and stuff. I guess we do sometimes change

I recently figured out that I'm extroverted and that I don't have enough confidence to execute that side of myself. This gives me a more positive outlook of things and perfectly describes my state of being, thank you very much!

I was neutral for all if them, but the last one shook me. That is so unironically true.
Looking back on my life I do enjoy being alone, but also enjoy being with family (I have no friends. I have family)

No one is truly either introvert or extrovert. Its more like a slider with both extrems at either end and some are closer to one that to the other extreme while others are closer to the middle

So what's the difference between an introverted extrovert, an extroverted introvert, and an ambivert? Because I've agreed with every single point for all three about myself.
