You're Not An Introvert; You're Just Mentally Deranged

This is definitely me when I

[manuba_]

Ok time to stop labeling myself as an introvert and let a Buzzfeed quiz tell me if I am one instead

[furfoxsake]

You're right though, Jreg. I'm not an introvert. I'm autistic.

"you're not an introvert, you just SUCK as a person. you SUCK"
that's more like it! finally, someone gets me

[derpymule]

I considered myself an introvert for about 10 years. Turns out, I’m actually pretty extroverted, it was just hidden under layers of severe social anxiety and repressed trauma.

[thirdrateturtle]

Of course I'm mentally deranged, I'm watching Jreg

I love this because it is proof of how terribly misused the word "introvert" is.

I don't know why people confuse introversion with being extremely shy or having anxiety. I'm an introvert and although I am quiet, I have no problems with speaking up and I have social interactions without feeling anxious.

The reason r/extroverts doesn’t exist because people who have frequent trips outside and human interaction don’t use reddit

The funny thing is that he is actually right about what he says in this video. Introvert doesn't mean socially anxious and low confidence. Those are actual issues that both extro/introverts can have, only that introverts have a tendency of not dealing with these issues because they're more comfortable alone anyways. I do understand the part about being anxious to go to parties though, since that's an uncomfortable and draining enviornment for an introvert, but actual social anxiety isn't synonymous with introversion.

Nice one jreg, you showed your entire audience who's boss

[yol]

Jreg's beard is starting to make him look like his great-grandfather.

R/introvert has degraded into "im not like the other girls" ripping down others.

Complaining about having friends who love them and ask them to talk more then once a month.

And calling the lady at work a narcissist because she asked how their day was.

Im still recovering myself, but learning to stop calling peoples "NPC" for doing human stuff i personally don't find stimulating is apparently very hard. Wish me luck.

"You're not an introvert; you're just mentally deranged."

Me: That sounds even better.

[Bigfoot_With_Internet_Access]

I don't have much interaction in the wilderness because humans just run away from me in terror

[UhtredOfBamburgh]

As a deeply disturbed and mentally deranged person, I do take offense to being called an "introvert" sir.

[gilbertovalenzuela]

Is insane how things in life can change your ways to see things, i have always been an introvert but when i first saw this i thought he was just being a jerk, but then i realize a while how avoiding social stuff was actually making me more sad and more misanthropist, and i decide to finally take the risk and then everything in my life turned into colors, i have friends i care, my social skills got better, is insane how this vid actually helped me to wake up and see that being an introvert is not about staying inside all day in a house hating all social activities

[TW-shun]

I once saw a person who justified actually “puking whenever they see their own selfies” because they’re introverted. People using introversion as a personality trait to cover things like crippling self esteem issues is absolutely something that needs to be addressed.

[dakunssd]

self diagnosis is dangerous, kids. Don't do it. Especially don't start telling yourself how much you suck and you're deranged. That's just gonna drag you down further. If you feel you have a problem, get help.

[bassman]

I’m an ambivert. I’m “unique”. Your labels can’t hold me. That’s why I need a 3rd label to show how different and unique I am

[Myname-cbru]

I don't go to parties because I'm not invited to them.
