How to tell the difference between healthy and unhealthy social withdrawal
Can introverts with mental health conditions succeed in a world seemingly built for extroversion?
Introverts recharge their social battery through withdrawal. However, the introverted need to withdraw can very easily mask a pathological desire to withdraw because of things like anxiety, depression, and more.
Understanding the difference between needed solitude and pathological isolation can help you achieve your lifestyle goals.
I'm explaining both of these in hopes the nuance will help you as you continue navigating this extroverted world.
