The holiday season has finally come to an end, and it’s now time to return to our regularly scheduled programming. If you’re a social butterfly, you might be sad that all of the Christmas potlucks and New Year's parties won’t be back for 11 months. But if you’re an introvert, you might be thrilled to get back to recharging on your own as much as you like.
For all of you pandas out there who become exhausted by social settings, we took a trip to the Introvert Planet Instagram page and gathered some memes that you might find painfully relatable. Keep reading to also find a conversation with the founder of Flourishing Introverts, Joanna Rawbone, and be sure to upvote the memes that make you feel seen (without having to actually see anyone at all)!

Because I'm bored. I'm thinking about all those things I'd rather do instead of being here.
Ok but has anyone ever had good rose petals? They’re so good. Slightly sweet, tender, and very light.
More like 'an extrovert found them, liked them and dragged them silently, internally kicking and screaming to do social things'.
Shyness is an excruciatingly stress inducing problem, it is not « self centered » I think the majority of shy people would rather not be « shy » but find it difficult to overcome the feelings. Arrogant assumptions just make it worse Mark (it/urgh)
I thought this was some kind of messed up fungus until I realised it was five meerkats.
Just been through this, 5 minutes before midnight on New Year's Eve in the middle of a dubstep set surrounded by 10 k people. Can't do anything about it. I held on for another 15 minutes tho and then hightailed outta there like there's no tomorrow. Will take til next New year's before I'm ready for another round.
I feel that's a badly phrased question. What do you want to know about me? We could be talking about my job and hobbies or my childhood trauma.
Except it usually looks good when the hairdresser has finished, then you go outside, it moves and is suddenly a hell of a mess
Mark are you being deliberately provocative? Rather tedious and not amusing.
You're not always obliged to respond to non-urgent texts right away. Sometimes you're just busy or you just can't deal with it right now.
I will never in my life understand the use of small talk. Such a waste.
Possibly ? But there are far worse to be had. You should know Mark.
I think y'all have "introvert" and "social anxiety" mixed up.
Harry Potter summed up introverts in this one scene perfectly
Just because I want to be at home doesn't mean I don't want to smell great. I wear perfume so I can smell nice for me, not for others to smell me.
Seen this format before, just noticed the lizard. Crested geckos are cute.
To be really attractive, your mom might want to consider shaving her beard.
Can y’all stop hating on extroverts? Like yeah sure it can be easier to have social interaction but it’s not like we don’t have other problems. I get told all the time to “be quiet” or “stop being so hyper” and it sucks. And the “extroverts” that tell introverts to be less introverted aren’t extroverts, they’re a******s.
I'm sorry you feel attacked by this article, but I really don't think anyone is hating on extroverts. Of course we al have our problems, I think introverts tend to feel lonely or misunderstood more, especially in this classic BP mix of introversy, anxiety and depression. Extroverts keep the world busy and talking, so be yourself!
