If you're one of the quiet kids, and you like it that way, then you're not alone. So, what even is an introvert, you ask? Most of you probably heard this word at least once before. My guess is that if you have heard the word introvert, you may have heard it used to describe someone in a negative way. You might know an introvert as someone who is quieter or not as outgoing, but there is a little more to it than that. People often mistake introversion as shyness, social anxiety, or a mental illness, but introversion is actually none of these things. It is simply a personality trait. You can be an introvert and still be a happy, confident person. A lot of well-known people were introverts, like Einstein, Abe Lincoln, Eleanor Roosevelt, Rosa Parks, and even Lady Gaga (Yes, I said Lady Gaga). This book focuses on what my experiences as an introvert have been so far, and the positives of being an introvert. It also gets into some psychology and mental health. Coming from a shy person, I also hope to talk about how to deal with shyness and build self confidence, even though being shy and introverted aren't exactly the same thing. So come join the party! *Ahem* Sorry. I meant to say, come join the small, quiet gathering.

This book is just a bunch of stories about my life with Social Anxiety. I hope it helps others relate and we can go through this together. Walking down the hallway, heart pounding, people staring. Suddenly everything freezes A breath, A shaky, broken breath It comes out of my lips and out into the frozen world Finally I see her, the one person I'm strong with The one person that I can let my guard down with. All the way on the other side of the hall. Times unfreezes and all eyes are on me. Staring Judging Whispering Laughing They tell me that nobody is looking But they don't understand They are what a freak! They all think when they see me I am a freak. Freak No I'm less then a freak. I'm useless. I hold back my million tears as I break into a run rushing past the staring eyes the whispering mouths I reach out and I grab the sweater of my best friend. She turns to look at me with a smile and in that moment I'm beautiful I'm smart I'm strong I'm worth it vix
