    Fellow introvert here! I'm new, and this is the first time I've engaged in any kind of online group. But I'm all about support so feel free to add me too!
    Thanks for posting!

    I'm a recovering introvert who is on the same journey. I've got a lot of reasons to say "I can't do this" but it hasn't stopped me yet. I'd be happy to give encouragement and motivation if you still need friends. It's so hard to try and do this alone!

    Recovering from what? Is there something wrong with us? :smile:

    And finally, I really want this shirt! Admit it, you do too...

    I like the cut of your jib, but that shirt is way too attention-seeking. Can I get it in simple black print on heather grey? Heh

    With the print in very small letters? :smile: It IS kinda colourful... but (perhaps surprisingly, as an introvert) my favourite colour is red so I wear "attention-seeking" tops often. I just hate getting any actual attention for it! :wink: Why can't we be allowed to be colourful without having people notice us?

    Seems like I had written a good many of the preceding posts myself. I am absolutely an introvert even though some that know me think otherwise. At best acting like an 'extrovert' is camouflage or a shield. I do not do a lot of comments but like others keep a helpful eye on my friends and a 'like' or 'well done buddy' is my usual response.

    Can add me too, we can all use all the support we can get. Complete introvert here and somewhat of a recluse, I work from home and tend to only come out of my office for family functions and to go to the grocery store. Trying very hard to overcome that.

    Sorry, nothing wrong with being an introvert. It's my sarcastic sense of humor. Guess I've learned to mimic an extrovert at work....then I go home and curl up into a ball. lol

    I've been unemployed for a few months, so now I only go out when I really need to... I might soon have to put gas in my car for the first time since November. I even exercise indoors rather than going outside for a walk. Apparently I should be "networking" to find a job, but can you imagine? I don't want to! I'd rather stay home and quietly browse job-search websites and the newspapers...

    I want in on this! I need motivation on here. I'm hoping that seeing "friends" on here succeed, it will help to keep me motivated.
