30 Memes For The Antisocial Folks Who Want To Be Left Alone, As Shared By This Instagram Page
In this day and age, the world has a lot going on. It’s probably safe to say that almost everyone finds that there is much to handle dealing with all those things, but we still need to keep going, and so we do.
However, some might find it a bit easier than others. For example, if you’re an introverted person, chances are that you’d a lot more gladly chill at home completely unbothered than have to deal with any of that stuff. But since we can’t avoid it all the time, it’s good to have pages like Introvert Memes that share some very relatable content, which can make these long days go by quicker.

Who really are these people?! I can't fall asleep without taking something. I'm so jealous.
They're exhausted mothers. Lol I get insomnia occasionally, but the only time I can't seem to sleep is when the kids are finally peacefully sleeping. And I will probably never sleep more than 4 solid hours at a time again because my body is so used to my autistic kids having highly changing mid night wakings.
When I was nine or ten, I had my first sleep over. It was six to eight girls and at some point, the parents told us it was time for bed, so we all spread out in our friend's bedroom, mostly on the floor, a couple of girls in the bed, and I spread out my sleeping bag on a chest/bench thing. I was so excited expecting that we would be up whispering and giggling all night, but when I settled in and turned over to face the other girls, they were all asleep. I had spent my whole life laying awake in bed for hours thinking that was normal. I never felt more alone in my life than in that moment in that room full of other girls, them asleep and me just laying there awake wondering what was wrong with me.
" average person " ?? Not exactly sure that's the correct choice of words....
Surely they mean "falls asleep in seven minutes after waking up for the third time after midnight"?
My husband can fall asleep really easily. He is retired from being a firefighter. Try someone have odd times to sleep or be up on a 24 hour shift. I guess he got used to it and after so many years it has stitch for him. Unfortunately I'm lucky to be able to fall asleep by 4 or 5 am. then im pretty useless the next day from gearing so little sleep

I fall asleep like I've got my own personal anaesthesiologist. 'Just count backward from 10', '10... 9... 8... 7... Zzzzzzz'
My dad, God love him, can take a 15 minute nap, fall asleep right away and wake up as refreshed as an 8-hour night. SO jealous.
That would be me but then I wake almost hourly until I finally give up and go to work.
That would be my partner, lol! It's infuriating sometimes! I can take up to 2 hours to get to sleep sometimes (even with the help of music or ASMR) and he is unconscious and snoring in 3 mins. SO unfair! :P
7 minutes is long for me. I’m usually out in 2. I had somebody tell me that I was asleep 90 seconds after I laid down. They were so jealous that they almost woke me up
I can fall asleep in 7 minutes no problem. Stayin asleep for more than a couple three hours, impossible.
I lie in bed for 3-4 hours, and sometimes briefly fall asleep. Or I eventually give up and try again later. Yes, I’m always tired.
My dad. He will just lie down and start snoring. Such a blessing to fall asleep that fast.
This Instagram page, going by the name Introvert Memes, may not be the most active meme account out there, but that’s not an issue because what it lacks in quantity, it makes up for in quality.
Like many of these pages, it was created during the heat of the Covid pandemic in 2020. Since then, through 67 handpicked posts, it has attracted over 19,000 followers and keeps slowly but surely expanding further.
Some of these memes are quite hysterical. And surely, more of us can relate to at least some of them than only those who see themselves as true introverts. This leads us to question what it really means to be an introvert or an extrovert.
According to Wikipedia, introverts are described as people who seek less stimulation, recharge their energy alone while reflecting in quiet, think before speaking, value deep experiences and closer friendships with fewer people, favor independence, and avoid the center of attention.
Extroverts, on the other hand, are almost exact opposites, and aside from enjoying the center of attention, they also seek greater stimulation, larger social networks, energize in social places, think out loud, thrive in teams as well as crowds, and value broad experiences.
But it’s extremely rare, if at all possible, for something in life to be 100%, isn’t it? As Aditi Murti of The Waddle wrote, Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology and the person responsible for popularizing this personality theory, would most likely agree.
Carl Jung believed that there are no pure extroverts or introverts and that these classifications were intended as points of reference and nothing more. But as it often happens, these names didn’t take long to turn into catchwords, leading to some people overfocusing on them and starting to model their realities accordingly, all the while falling into confirmation bias.
We all have different tendencies that could fit one or the other side, and the research confirms that multiple other factors contribute to determining how we behave in certain situations. So, if we look at these classifications, it puts all of us somewhere in between.
According to Elizabeth Harris of Truity, the people in that middle place are known as ambiverts. They are usually seen as comfortable in social situations but also just as happy to spend time on their own, not minding either hanging out with friends and in crows or participating in some quieter and solitary activities.
But while you might’ve heard of the term ambivert, there is another lesser-known cousin called omnivert. People who are closer to this category are just as well considered to be in the middle. However, their personalities are usually completely situational, depending on where they are, who they’re with, and what they’re doing. They tend to hop from being strongly on one side of the social personality type to the other and being in a new setting can be quite unpredictable.
However, in the end, none of it really matters all that much, as all of these categories are essentially just labels. While they might help us understand our tendencies, they’re more like a tool in the process and not something that defines us.
Humans are constantly changing creatures, and something that fits us one day might not fit the other, so there’s no point in trying to put yourself into a box, especially one that someone else created. But at the same time, it’s always nice to find a place with like-minded individuals, and while none of us might be pure introverts, Introvert Memes can still make us laugh regardless.

How come we never see memes about how extroverts feel? I'm guessing they don't need to make memes or cartoons in order to cope. I would ask what it's like, but I'm also guessing this readership is mostly introverts.
I very much doubt there are more than a few pure extroverts. Pretty much everyone has times when a night alone with a good book, or a movie and a disgusting amount of ice cream will be just what they need.
Load More Replies... It's incredibly s****y of you to equate being an introvert with mental illness. Multiple studies have shown that introverts are often extremely healthy, happy, and contented people. You're just perpetrating the idea there's something wrong with introverts, that we're all crazy, people-hating loners. I suspect most introverts would identify with the Charles Bukowski line "I don't hate people, I just seem to feel better when they're not around". C'mon BP, don't be such f***ing ignorant a**holes.
