Ambiverts are real???

@Gabriel Smith I’ll be socializing with the people I’m closest to and still be worrying about what to say :’) there’s probably only a single person to whom I just speak freely to

I’m not sure how your family is, and which of these will work for you, but here are a few things that may help :) 1. Try just talk to them, have a conversation and try voice how you feel, explain that you need your own space and alone time sometimes and need everyone to respect that 2. Try find somewhere in the house where you can be on your own, if you have your own room, then keep the door locked or enforce a “knock before you enter” rule if your family is the type to just barge in. 3. If you have a shared room with no personal space, perhaps a small room or area to go to when you need time on your own would be helpful, I used to share a room with my brother and I kid you not, I would go sit in the bathroom to read in silence, going outside is also another place where you can be on your own. 4. Maybe create a schedule, tell everyone that you will be busy at x time and don’t want to be disturbed, but make time for socializing too! If you’re never around then people will stop respecting your schedule (in my experience at least). 5. If being around people so much all the time bothers you or overwhelms you a lot, whenever you feel overwhelmed try to take a deep breath and calm down, what are you feeling? Why are you feeling this way? What about this is making you uncomfortable? What about this situation is positive? How can I communicate my needs to everyone else? Hopefully at least one of these helps! Again, I’m not sure about your situation, I’m just giving advice that has worked for me, and some that have worked for others, I hope anyone reading this has a nice day <3

@Anni Munsin Ek Not my post but I’m stealing these tips from you >:D (thank you <3)

@Abraham Diop I did roller skating a few years ago, but every-time I tried I found myself so scared of falling that it slowly became more of a “try not get injured” thing rather than a hobby! I still have the skates, once I manage to be consistent with my routines then I definitely want to try again with a different mindset!

@Anni Munsin Ek Ooo I adore taking care of plants! Baking is really fun too! I’m just an absolute hazard fire in the kitchen.. may I ask what macrame is?

@Olivia Elise Don’t spare me… send the whole list (if you can!) >:D
