Are You An Introvert? Or Just Anxious?

You leave the party, the barbecue, the work mixer. You're exhausted. You've been telling yourself for years that's just how introverts work. Maybe. Or maybe what you've been calling introversion has been doing a different kind of work in your life: holding the underlying anxiety in place by labeling it as personality.

In this episode, Dr. Aziz makes a careful distinction. Real introversion exists. But most of what people call being introverted is something else: anxiety wearing the costume of introversion. He walks through the patterns that actually drain you in social settings, and shares a story about going from being drained after three hours of therapy sessions to leading 10-12 hour workshops feeling fully energized.

This episode covers:

• What real introversion is, and what most people are mistaking for it
• The five patterns that drain you in social situations while you're calling it introversion
• How Dr. Aziz went from drained after three therapy hours to energized after full workshop days
• The principle: you can be an introvert and love being around people, as long as you're fully self-expressed
