﻿Welcome to Psychology Refresh! Today, we’re going to go
over the Dark Side Of Introverts Make sure to watch each one and find out
if you have any of those traits!
If you’re an Introvert, you might have some dark side in you, and you might even
be not aware of it. If you think you are an Introvert, dive deeper into your personality,
learn what those dark traits are and determine how you can use them to
increase your soft skills and achieve personal growth. Here is the Dark Side Of Introverts.
Number 1 - Moodiness
Introverts are very aware of the times when they should behave appropriately, yet in all honesty,
their emotions frequently dictate how they act. Even though Introverts are a bundle of strong
emotions on the inside, they may appear calm on the surface. Even though they can usually tell
when something is hurting them, Introverts don't always want to talk about it. They have a tendency
to push others away and host pity parties. Of course, they wish we had someone to confide in,
but more often than not, they believe that even if they were to be open, most people wouldn't
understand. Introverts are sometimes just as unsure of their moods as other people are. They
need time to process their feelings and comprehend why they are feeling the way they are, just like
other other people do. If an Introvert does reveal themselves to you, they might even apologize for
sharing their emotions. To spare you the hassle, they frequently keep things to themselves.
Number 2 - Bottling up emotions
Almost all Introverts have a time in their life when they felt wronged by someone but,
for whatever reason, they chose to keep their feelings to themselves instead of speaking up.
It's no secret that Introverts prefer to be quiet; after all, confrontation can be frightening.
However, holding all of your melancholy thoughts to yourself without finding a way to let them
out is one of the worst things you can do. These emotions and sensations occasionally develop and
materialize as more powerful and chaotic forces. You can assist yourself to a calmer and happier
state of mind later on by writing, talking to a friend, crying, and being open with a therapist.
Number 3 - Unfair judgements
People who are emotionally outspoken and exuberant tend to irritate Introverts. They typically have
trouble trusting them and question whether they have hidden agendas. Instead of approaching
them with an open mind, they may enjoy bringing them down a peg or being condescending to them.
Introverts are more likely to distrust persons who display strong emotions or promote group
beliefs. Healthy Introverts recognize that diversity can be beneficial, but unhealthy
ones on the other hand can very quickly judge someone by the cover, not knowing them enough.

Number 4 - Procrastination
Introverts are often considered as lazy individuals. However, they are not necessarily
lazy, they are just big procrastinators. They are so intelligent and always get the task done
when they want to. However, they are most likely overthinking every move. Self-doubt
and fear of failure are common problems for every Introvert. They are mind wanderers who
can't help themselves. This may make individuals hesitant to begin a project and, as a result,
appear unproductive. They may not be the best at school because they have trouble concentrating,
but they excel in other areas of their lives. This may appear to be a negative
quality of Introverts, especially given their intelligence and analytical abilities.
Number 5 - Self-doubt
Introverts have a tendency to be harsh on themselves, which might sow doubt in their
own thoughts. They could begin to feel inadequate and worry that they will never succeed in anything
good. They may even experience significant distress as a result of this self-doubt,
which makes them feel unmotivated to complete tasks. Introverts are more likely to begin
analyzing every previous event and mistake, blaming themselves for when things went wrong.
They are more likely to notice the negative side of things rather than the positive,
and they have trouble remembering details. They'll examine the past specifics, dissecting each
scenario and examining how they failed or were unable to handle the circumstance as they should
have. This appears as a sense of self-doubt, prompting Introverts to criticize themselves
or others for whatever went wrong. Introverts who go out into the world with zeal might fall
into lethargy and despair when they realize their ideals aren't always shared or accepted by others,
and their amazing abilities can be wasted if they get too discouraged to keep going.
Number 6 - Distrust
Introverts tend to be suspicious and sceptical. They have a lot of trust issues,
which may be traced back to their over-analytical nature. Another reason they don't have many failed
relationships is because of this. This is due to their belief that they can never be wrong or
their repugnance of being wrong. What is the reason for this? The Introvert is a person
who spends a lot of time alone researching and looking for solutions to various difficulties.
And they will sometimes defend what they believe is correct, even if it is incorrect!
Although Introverts are open to learning, they frequently assume they already know everything
and they have a tendency to distrust anyone whose opinion is different from their own.
Number 7 – Overthinking Almost all introverts struggle
with overthinking. What begins as straightforward problem-solving ideas can quickly develop into a
full-blown existential crisis. Once Introverts have gotten themselves into this predicament,
it might be very difficult to escape. Existential crises frequently result from Introverts' demand
for a distinct goal or mission. They might find that there is no overarching purpose in their
current position, for instance, and wonder why they were ever put on this miserable planet in
the first place. Introverts must learn how to deal with these thought crises since they are
continuously seeking meaning and purpose, which can sap their enthusiasm and drive.
Number 8 – Bursts of anger Introverts convert rage to silence in the first
phase. When others irritate them, they will begin to treat them as if they don't exist. Introvert's
cold shoulder mentally destroys other people, making it worse than a vocal dispute. It will take
time for anyone to experience Introvert's second phase of rage. It is, however, rather aggressive.
Introverts retaliate with truculence and physical force when someone they dislike maintains a
hostile attitude and insensitivity. When an Introvert hits their breaking point, they can even
use a physical form of aggression. Furthermore, they can emotionally tear apart their opponents
because they will confront the awful truths about the entire person, not just their arguments
Number 9 – Cutting off people
You've probably heard of the legendary door slam. This is when an Introvert removes someone from
their life because they have harmed them. This isn't always as impulsive as you would believe.
The final line is that the Introverts door slam is for their own protection. When they slam the
door on someone, their sensitive and emotional side comes out. They completely stop speaking
with them and Introverts are able to shut down completely from people and isolate them. It
demonstrates utter disregard for the other and has a significant emotional impact on the other
person. Although Introverts may see themselves as low-maintenance, self-isolation can be viewed
in many different ways by the other person and could lead to complete friendship loss. We all
know that Introverts enjoy their alone time and their deep inner thoughts, but it's a good idea
to occasionally check in with your friends to make sure you haven't forgotten about them.
