Found this in a video talking about how you're not introverted you may be inferior it's an intresting thing to think about and it's similar to the black pill mindset a big chunk of introverts may actually have this problem of being inferior



The reason you might be "introverted" is because you are inferior. This is because when you socialize/try to socialize it may lead to negative conclusions with embarrassment, being made fun of, the interaction being awkward and many other factors this can be because you can't communicate with people well because you're not confident in yourself and have anxiety issues etc. If the "introverted" you were a chad you wouldn't be introverted because you would be more confident and socialising would lead to positive results making you do it more,
Most 'introverts" might not be introverts and just be inferior in factors like height, self esteem and attractiveness




This can also be because you have like 10 diffrent ways to get high dopamine levels that require 0 effort instead of getting dopamine through methods like socialising, doomscrolling , watching porn and just using ur phone in general is highly addicting and such an easy way to get dopamine,being addicted to these things can directly correlate to why you might not hang out with your friends or family members and quitting these addictive things are very hard to do.If you were growing up using a phone there's a high chance you got addicted and used it for high dopamine instead of trying to play with your friends leading to less social relationships growing up





Obviously there's still a chance you might just be an actual introvert these are other reasons u may not be socialising instead of being an introvert
 
Hello! Therapist here! One of the foundational researchers on human development, Erik Erikson (real name, I promise), identified different stages of life with different conflicting challenges.

Ages 5-13 is where we have this internal battle of industry versus inferiority. If you think about your negative thoughts you had about yourself in elementary school, many times they were likely in this category. "Am I good student?", "I'll never be as good at basketball as Johnny", etc. There were also core defining positive thoughts at this age, "I'm the best at science in my class", or even more group related ones of "(your gender) is faster than (other gender)".

Ages 13-21 we get identity versus role confusion. This is the era where we're trying to figure out who we are. Personality has long since formed at this point (usually by age 6), but identity is still very much changing. It's where we see the concept of the goth phase and the high school clique, but also we find online or cultural communities we connect with. Church youth groups, discords on a specific topic, or creating a persona as the one person in the school who is the expert on all of the lore of Dragon Ball Z.

When we have a lot of inferiority taking over that 5-13 developmental year, that inferiority can color and direct where a lot of our identity goes once we shift into adolescence and early adulthood. If we take this belief of inferiority and it becomes part of our identity (which is often more common than people realize), it can make interactions with others be directly related to this. Good alternative paradigm to bring to the discussion here zen @zen '

Why're u roleplaying as a therapist isn't erik erikson a German therapist that died. Also good analysis on the topic i personally think a lot of black pillers got exposed to this stuff at the age of 13-16 leading to them having online communities u mentioned being the black pill community leading to them believing they are inferior in looks or other metrics such as height and they may tell themselves they're an introvert or accept it that's the reason which is bad I'm okay with them changing themselves but you should never abandon ur social life in ur teens to change yourself, socialising and having hangouts with your friends in ur teen years are very important and one of the most enjoyable and core memories I have. Improving yourself through bp is fine don't sacrifice your social life for it most people in the blackpill community are average/slightly below average and that's not enough to justify that your looks are the reason you're not getting friends sure chad may have it easier to get friends and get into hangouts but just because chad has it easier doesn't mean you should sacrifice your social life in your teen years to look better do both.

OH! I understand the miscommunication. When I said, "Erik Erikson (real name I promise)", I was making a joke about his name. I wasn't trying to imply I was Erik Erikson, simply referencing that his name is very whimsical
