This article resonated deeply with me; as an introvert I am drained by too much fellow human encounters. I prefer the company of a few friends and even then need a break of solitude.
I think that the hardest thing for me was only understanding that about myself later in life. That was why I was so struck by the statement “In short, I need to connect with others in order to experience myself and my own existence to the fullest extent possible.” Absolutely brilliant!!! And a precise description of what it often feels like.
