All of this is accurate. I really like Myth #10 . People think that we can/should "fix" ourselves, that we might not be "weirdos" if we succeed. But our brains work differently. Some of us can focus our intellect on mimicry of Extroverts to an extent that we are camouflaged among them, and they might temporarily see us as "one of them" or as "coming out of our shells", but internally during this exercise, we are hiding our stress and wishing we could just have a nice quiet place to read, rest, and recharge.
