When Your Introversion and Social Anxiety Aren't the Same Thing

di Celeste Rowan (Autore)

epubli, 2026

Many introverts believe their struggle in social situations is simply part of their temperament—that needing alone time and feeling anxious around others are the same thing. But introversion is about energy management, while social anxiety is about threat perception. This book explores the space where these two experiences overlap and where they diverge, helping readers understand what comes from their natural wiring and what comes from learned fear. It examines why introverts might develop social anxiety more readily, how nervous system sensitivity plays a role, and what happens when we confuse genuine preference for solitude with avoidance born from fear. The book reframes social anxiety not as a personality flaw but as a protective response—one that made sense at some point but may no longer serve you. Rather than pushing readers toward extroversion or promising to eliminate anxiety, it offers insight into working with both your introversion and your nervous system. It explores questions like: What if you could want connection without forcing yourself to be someone you're not? What if solitude could be restorative instead of isolating? What if your caution in social spaces actually reflects intelligence, not inadequacy? For introverts who wonder if they're "broken" or "too sensitive," this book offers validation, clarity, and a more compassionate way to understand themselves.
