Through understanding, accepting and respecting our differences, we function as a more productive society. Below are some of the more significant differences.
Crowds are loud, congested, and very stimulating sensorily. The threshold of stimulation for introverts is lower than extroverts. This overstimulating leaves them feeling drained and irritable. Taking meticulous note of their surroundings and reacting and to so many stimuli is a task or chore. Extroverts have a tendency to ‘feed’ off the situation, introverts don’t.
Small talk bores introverts. They can feel intimidated or quickly exhausted. They listen more than speak in crowds. It is not always that they are shy, rather they prioritize social interactions differently.
They can ‘feed’ off their social surroundings, but there has to be intellectually stimulating or emotionally invested content present.

Once the objective is achieved they fall back into a quiet demeanor. If anything, the objectiveness manner of ‘small talk’ is why they experience problems.
Introverts pay attention to much more of the happenings of their surroundings. This sensitivity means they have more ‘mental’ threads that their mind can ‘pull’ at.
Self-sufficient, self-driven and intellectually organized, introverts can be found on career paths that don’t force them to deal with the public. Writer, scientist, artists and behind-the-scenes technical specialists are a few of the paths introverts prefer.
When asked a question, they will consider the matter thoroughly before responding. Their neural pathways have longer paths for analysis and response. They also remember events more thoroughly, information observed is more readily placed in long term memory.
Extraverts get a dopamine rush from external resources, while introverts do not make that same exchange. Introverts get their ‘good feeling’ more from internal resources, though that is not to say they don’t get good feelings from the events around them.
Introverts hate phone calls for a handful of reasons. They don’t like when they are interrupted. The high sensitivity makes it difficult enough to focus without additional distractions.
