it was funny, we had her birthday party sunday at a bowling alley and she had about 10-12 of her friends with her, my wife, father and I were sitting a little bit apart from their group and my wife said, are we sure she is introverted? Then I started noticing she was coming over and hanging out with use every 10-15 minutes instead of her friends, I don't think I would have noticed it before we had the talk the other night, I don't know, maybe I'm reading to much into it

I am a total introvert. It was very difficult when I was a child because it was so extreme. Fortunately my parents accepted it about me and allowed me to just be who I was, and my skills as an artist grew out of it. Introverts have a lot going on inside and dominant culture needs to back off and let us be.

this might be worse than I thought, she had a panic attack last night at work and we ended up in the ER. They gave her some Ativan which I am not that happy about, but she is 18 now

I am a total introvert. I have been my whole life. My parents were great in that they always encouraged me to just be who I am. 

The thing to maybe remind her of, is that even the extroverts her age have the same anxieties. They just cover it up with their extrovertness!

I dont think you can solve the puzzle that is teenagers, let alone teenage girls.

Kinda like trying to solve a Rubick's cube while wearing oven mitts and a blindfold.

I'm pretty much an introvert.  Have never been great at making friends, etc.  My father is the same way, and it's resulted in us basically not having a relationship.  When we were dating, my wife just didn't understand when after a party, family gathering, etc. I told her I needed time to "decompress".

I think my son is an introvert as well.  At recess at school, he's content to read a book.  He doesn't have many friends, etc.  He's a super book worm.  And it's hard to make people (my wife, etc.) understand that too much of ANYTHING (even books) is a bad thing.
