Ross Hendrick is a British cartoonist known for his work in The Beano and Viz, but he's best recognized for Socially Awkward Misfit, a comic series that uses simple, expressive art to nail the everyday struggles of introverts with dry, relatable humor.
The series features Sam, an introverted character whose observations about anxiety, small talk, and overthinking have even been adapted into animated shorts shown at film festivals and on Hendrick’s YouTube channel.

I’ve actually panicked and grabbed something nearby instead of what I wanted because I was so uncomfortable.
Because it’s the only time I can get any peace and quiet. (After all the extroverts go to bed.)
You wouldn't think it from all of the memes and cartoons but it is possible to be an introvert without also suffering from anxiety, depression and awkwardness. I am not anxious or depressed, I am not socially awkward, I just hate being the centre of attention, I don't enjoy being around other people and I prefer my own company and that of my dogs.
You're probably an ambivert like me. I'm not shy or awkward and I don't have problems socializing or making friends. I just have a social battery which gets quickly drained by other people. For the most part I prefer to be alone and I thrive that way. I do have anxiety/depression, but that's genetic and is controlled by meds. Most people have no idea and would never guess it about me.
