"When some unpleasant truth starts bothering me, I'll have a complete mental breakdown, lose all my physical energy, possibly fall asleep, and maybe get the flu ... it used to last weeks in a row, now I've generally toned it down to hours with help from friends."-- Anon INFJ (a type of introvert called "The Counselor")
This is a typical reaction of many introverts to stress. We are chronically stressed because we are trying to adjust to a world designed by and for others.
Today I was browsing one of my favorite sites, The New York Social Diary. Party. Party. Party. We see the same faces over and over again. Fun to look at but eventually this voice inside of me says, "That's exhausting! How can those people do that all the time?" Well, it's easy for them because they're extroverts.
What a different world we would design. Quiet walks in beautiful parks. Snuggling by the fire with a good book. Writing in our journal as blissful solitary travelers. My, what a different world!
In the meantime, we have to cope with Wal-Mart, drag-car racing, HR programs for teamwork, even the person next to us at work who yaks into the cell phone about the private details of their lives. Where can we find peace?
