To learn more about “It’s Okay To Be An Introvert,” we reached out to the woman who runs the page, Shireen Boone. Shireen was kind enough to have a chat withBored Pandaand reveal what inspired her to create this account.“I started my page simply because I felt alone in who I was and wanted to find like-minded people,” she shared. “My best friend told me I was an introvert, so I became curious and looked into it. My partner at the time mocked my (unknown) introversion. So the title of the page was really an affirmation for myself. But it became it for many others.”

“I used to allow messages, page follower questions, and submissions, but after my original page was stolen, I shut all of that down,” she added. “It really hurt because I did love to connect with people in my own way.”

“One of my admins started a new page of the same name, and fortunately, many of my long-term followers came across the new page,” Shireen continued. “And though it’s now not as big or as lively as the original page, I quite like the vibe it has and the gentle and respectful nature of those who have been so loyal to me for so long.”

Some of the benefits you might experience when finally getting some much needed alone time are improved personal exploration, increased creativity and more energy for future social interactions, Verywell Mind notes. When you’re alone, there’s no one distracting you or keeping you from finally finishing that painting or reading that book you’ve been meaning to get around to for weeks.This can also be a great time to harness your creativity. In fact,one studyeven found that those of us who make a point to spend time alone tend to be extremely creative. When your brain isn’t constantly being fed stimuli, and you’re not forced to engage with others, you have the opportunity to slow down, relax and let your creative juices flow.

Contrary to what you might assume, living alone can also provide individuals withmoreenergy to socialize. Many of us experienced this during the height of the pandemic. Once we were forced to stay home and the option to hang out with friends was taken away, many of us craved those social interactions. It’s just important for us to be able to choose when we want to be around others, as it is certainly possible to have too much or too little social time.

Even if you consider yourself an extrovert, it’s healthy to be alone with your thoughts from time to time. And if you’re not sure how to know when you should take a step back from socializing, Verywell Mind noted a few factors to consider. First, if you’re feeling short-tempered or irritable, this might be a sign that you should be alone for a bit. Losing interest in socializing or feeling overstimulated can be signals to spend some time alone too. And if you’re having trouble concentrating or getting anxious about being around others, don’t hesitate to cancel your plans and opt for a night in instead.

As healthy as it is to spend some time alone, it can be a slippery slope for those of us who are more inclined to stay home and turn into hermits. According toGreater Good Magazinefrom Berkeley University, it’s recommended to get one to three hours of social interaction per day. Apparently, most of us usually get far less, socializing for about 34 minutes per day on average, so don’t be afraid to reach out to your friends and invite them over for a coffee or out on a hike. Then you can head home and enjoy your solitude for the rest of the evening.
