I like how you talk about your extroversion and that when you don't get what you need you recognize that you experience the consequences of depression, lethargy, etc. Some folks don't recognize their needs at all because they don't listen to themselves enough to recognize "when A happens, eventually B is a consequence." I love that you assert so well how important our other needs are. Unrelated, I was also thinking during this post that I have found that my and my perceptions of other people's strengths and weaknesses are two sides of the same coin. While your extroversion is sometimes intense and a problem for you, it also is the source of so many of your many gifts. That's a fun thing I like to explore when I'm in a meditative mood.
Thanks, Emily. <3 Two sides of the same coin, for sure. I think you're absolutely right.
