A person use to be introverted, had a car accident, became extroverted, but wants to go back to being...?

Question

introverted, in your opinion - Is this possible ?

If so, how do you think the person can go back to being introverted ?
Not shy, or fearful, as how most perceive introverted people are, but much more quiet, a deep thinker, objectively observing and listening, but still semi-friendly.

Any deep insight ? input ?

Answer 1

Oh. The terminology was confusing. I wouldn't describe that as going back to being an introvert. I would simply describe that as becoming more introspective, etc.

The answer? Take the time to do it! Practicing until it becomes habit.

Answer 2

Just going to throw this one out there. I think that if the person 'became' extroverted after the accident that the inclination was already there prior to the accident. This really is an interesting question due to the fact that a traumatic experience usually leads one to 'become' more introverted than extroverted.
I guess the bottom line that I am trying to get to is that it sounds like the person already had it in them, they just need to try to reconnect with that aspect of their personality.

Answer 3

Couldn't you have the best of both worlds?
Friendly and open, but also thinking carefully?

I'm curious about what qualities of extroverted you see as undesirable.

Perhaps this is something that you could talk over with a psychologist or other competent counselor.

Answer 4

Its like standing outside of a house and looking in at all of the fun that is going on. You go inside the house and socialize, but you would rather be outside alone looking in?

Keep the door opened so that you can go back and forth as you please.
