But when you’re scrolling through these pics from Introverts Are Us from the comfort of your home, you can be reminded of the fact that there are plenty of introverts out there.

If you’ve been made fun of for needing to stay home and recharge after a social weekend or called boring by your extrovert friends who never seem to get tired, don’t worry fellow introverts. This is a safe space. And according to All About Introverts, there are some key benefits to having a social battery that needs to be recharged on its own.

First of all, many introverts thrive in academic settings. They likely enjoy spending time alone reading or writing, which can make studying and doing homework much easier. They also might have more time to accomplish these tasks, if they prioritize having alone time at home over spending every waking moment with their friends.  

Introverts are also often great listeners. Not that they don’t like to share their own stories, but they tend to be comfortable sitting and listening when friends open up, without needing to constantly interject and share their own experiences. On a similar note, introverts are prone to thinking carefully before they speak.

Sometimes we have a habit of overthinking, but for the most part, we are intentional with what we say and we consider the ramifications ahead of time. This does not mean we’re all afraid of speaking up by any means, but we do tend to choose our words wisely and thoughtfully, without blurting out the first thoughts that come to our minds. 

For a previous Bored Panda article featuring memes for introverts, we reached out to Yadirichi Oyibo, founder of Diary Of An Introvert, to hear her thoughts on what it means to be an introvert. 

“Being an introvert isn't just a fancy psychological term I tend to use; it's my way of life,” Yadirichi shared. “It's where my creativity blooms, and it gives my life a sense of purpose. Introversion lets me do some deep soul-searching and connect with people on a genuine level. And guess what? It's not just for introverts; it's something the whole world uses.”

“Imagine a world where nobody takes a moment to think about things,” the writer continued. “We'd all be like zombies. But, introspection helps us stay true to ourselves while contributing to society. So, for me, being an introvert isn't just a personality trait; it's the quiet glue holding the world together.”

Yadirichi also shared that she loves that being an introvert makes her unique. “No two introverts are the same. We might look similar on the outside, but our inner worlds are like uncharted territories,” she explained. “Being an introvert freed me from the pressure to fit in. Sure, I tried to be like everyone else during my childhood, but over time, I've come to love my quirks. Now, I wear my introverted nature with pride, knowing I've got something special to offer. Plus, nobody expects me to be anything other than myself, and that's pretty awesome.”

But as with everything, there are some downsides to being an introvert as well. “For one, I can get so comfy with my own company that I forget the importance of building relationships. Let's be real; we all need people in our lives,” Yadirichi previously told Bored Panda. “More so, being an introvert sometimes makes me cling to my comfort zone like it's my lifeline. While comfort zones are great for brewing ideas, there's a whole world out there where we can share our talents and make a difference.”

Yadirichi also wanted to dispel the misconception that all introverts are shy, timid, arrogant, or just plain incapable. “The ‘incapable’ myth gets under my skin the most because introverts aren't any less capable due to our quieter nature,” she noted. “We've got skills aplenty, but we might express them in more subtle ways. We'd rather avoid the spotlight and let our actions speak for us. But trust me, that doesn't mean we can't rock the boat when needed. In fact, the low expectations can work to our advantage. When people least expect, we spark intrigue, further allowing us to make a positive impact.”

Yadirichi also had some wise words for all of her fellow introverts: “You've got some serious potential. Your inner world is like a treasure chest of creativity; don't ever doubt it. Embrace your uniqueness and never sell yourself short,” she told Bored Panda.
