Apart from the simple fact
that introverts prefer to have plenty of time to themselves, and that being
denied this can be draining, there’s also evidence that, at a physiological
level, introverts response more strongly
to stimulation, such as loud noises, than extroverts do. This means
socialising is more likely to leave them exhausted and needing a rest
afterwards. On the introvert, Dear blog,
contributor Shawna Courter even argues that there’s such a thing as an “introvert hangover,” which she describes
as “an actual physical reaction to
[social] stimulation. Your ears might ring, your eyes start to blur, and you
feel like you’re going to hyperventilate.”*
