Hello comrades! If there is one huge flaw to me, it's that I'm very pessimistic (my family would probably say overly so!). I have what is called Generalized Anxiety Disorder, so I'm constantly worrying over almost everything. I am worried that I'll do poorly on my exams, I'm worried that I won't be able to perform satisfactorily at work and get fired, I'm worried that environmental disaster will ruin the Earth, I'm worried that there'll always be slaves around the world working endless hours to just barely survive. So, I am definitely not on the side of optimism!

Also speaking about whether or not I'm an extrovert or introvert, I definitely lean towards the latter. I like spending time on my own, either watching videos, studying, reading, playing video games, listening to music, etc. I am not very good in social situations, and I frequently get anxious when I am going to someone's house or there are people coming over to my house. As a result, I don't have friends and the maint interactions that I have are with my immediate family.

So, what about you guys? Which are you?

3/4 full.

I put introvert and pessimist, but I'm not really that pessimistic, more down the middle.

I've spent most of my life as one heck of an introvert and probably still am, but nearly all anxieties regarding "extrovert" activities are largely gone... Last year I had a few rather serious health issues involving surgery and an undiagnosed nervous system issue that had me seriously contemplating mortality and the like, so now that I've recovered I just find that I enjoy typical "extrovert" activities now.

I think most of us have a little of both though. I really don't like to declare myself "optimistic" or "pessimistic", as I really try to determine what is most likely via objective reasoning and just go with that while not stressing the possible negative outcome. I suppose that has me leaning more "optimistic", but I'd prefer "objectively apathetic" haha

neither takes to much energy.. and indian tea helps with that so look into it.

Hmm. One of my cats is an introvert, while the other one is an extrovert. That description didn't really help!

I'd consider myself an introvert, but I've learned to be an extrovert when I deem it useful (i.e networking).

As for optimism/pesimism; all I can say is that I'm definitely not a pessimist. I suppose that automatically makes me lean towards optimism, but I'm not so sure about that either.

I'm more of a "expect the best and prepare for the worst" kind of guy.

Maybe not too much of an optimist, but I just don't care enough to be pessimistic.

People who say things like that are usually self obsessed narsissistic YouTube vloggers.

Probably more optimistic than pessimistic, though I also act jaded sometimes. Depends on the situation.

I definitely admit that I'm severely introverted, even though I've grown enough to hide it when I need to. I manage a small team at work, which kinda forced me to get better about it. Still, I'm definitely most at ease when I'm completely alone, and honestly enjoy quiet periods where I have nothing to do.

That being said, just because I'm aware of it, doesn't mean I'm proud of it. It's definitely a personality flaw that I want to improve on as much as possible.
