Introvert seeking social support

Hey all I have been using this app and basically doing this journey alone for a while. I have reached a point where I would really like some support, encouragement and friends that get it. I have numerous health issues and have taken my weight and health into my own hands for lack of a better phrase. I may not talk a great deal but I keep people in my thoughts and know that I am rooting for you every day! It would be great to having some people to chat with that understand the rollercoaster of getting fit, chronic illness, dealing with doctors, fighting the urges to binge and people to share in personal successes.

Hi there. You can add me I am also an introvert, so much so that my husband thinks I hate people. I just value time alone. I am little less introverted online and getting more outgoing on this site. I would be happy to chat and vent as needed.2

I could have written this post myself! I'm the same exact way.
Feel free to add me!0 -
Introvert here. I actively log my food and workouts (diary is public so you can snoop and see what I'm eating). I will like other people's posts. Not big on commenting but I am watching you (in a non creepy/ stalkerish - but the way introverts do kinda way0

I am not an introvert but you can add me if you like. Well done on reaching out0

Introvert here as well0

Hello, fellow introvert here. I also have more than my fair share of health issues so I understand how hard it is to stay motivated. I have binge eating disorder, bipolar, borderline personality, aspergers, pcos, IBS, chronic anxiety, dislocated my knee last year and that is still causing problems. It is so easy to just give up and munch but I am trying to claw my way to a better place.0

Hah! I feel like I could have written this.
I'm fairly introverted and will occasionally comment to cheer you on, or to offer advice if it's asked for and I feel I might have insight. Otherwise, I generally will like positive status updates and occasionally will browse others' diaries; I never really comment on those, though, unless there's something yummy that I need info on. Feel free to add me.0 -
You can add me. I'm in a similar boat trying to get my health back on track0

I'm am introvert. INTJ though I do stray to P depending upon the day. I am a 95 out of 100 on the introvert/extrovert scale though. Totally get the "introverts do kinda way". My wife CANNOT understand how an introvert can be happy at a Latin dance night, contenting himself to hang back, watch, and dance a handful of times. Us introverts are a lot like housecats that way.0

You can add me. I was doing this alone and finally reached out to make friends also. It really helps!0

Same here. I don't do much chatting but I log everything and would like to have friends who also struggle with multiple health issues, and yet are still really putting in the effort to make my life healthy.0

I'm an INFJ and I always hang back and dance a few really good dances. I suppose it helps that I'm a perfectionist, so I'd rather do a few dances really well and totally nail them, than go out and do everything and trip over my feet. My husband is an INTJ.0 -
