Any other introverts 'peopled out?'

[TitsalinaBumSquash]

I have sat down this morning and cried. I want some time alone!
I want to tiny and clean my house,
I want to sleep uninterrupted in the quiet (we have no bedroom, DH snores and DD wakes up at dawns crack to come down to the living room where we sleep!)
I want the dog to fuck off and stop whining to come in then promptly go back out!
I want to just no have to see/speak/be near anyone. Even my husband and kids who I love very much. I am DONE with other living things being around me and I want to crawl into a space of nothingness for a while. 😢

Yes desperate for some p&q on my own. Got a bit this afternoon but out of all 5 of us we have 4 introverts who get it and need their own alone time too - and one extrovert who doesn't (desperate for an audience, yak yak yak, stupid jokes, burps, farts, invades our personal space which increases through the day) Every year I am amazed she survives, all credit to the rest of us... We just ignore, eye roll at each other and plug in headphones

YES. Thankfully my OH understands and we have a peaceful few days now until we go back to work on the 6th. He knows that he can go out or do anything social he wants, but I'll be at home getting back in the regular routines and getting lots of fresh air/gym/dog walks/getting the house up straight etc.

I'm missing being around people. My husband left in April. Spent a couple of hours with him on Christmas Day while he was seeing the children. The rest of the time has been spent on my own while the children are watching films etc in their rooms.

Very different to my routine where I'm very busy and the phone is going constantly and I don't have time for the doubts and sadness to creep in

I’m an extrovert and I’m peopled out op!

Yanbu!

Yep another ASDer here! I am literally counting down the days until normality resumes which for us is Monday 6th. I can’t wait. I struggle hugely with changes to routines and my house is like shit creek and i also have diagnosed OCD and am struggling with everything.

The build up was so busy, the shopping, the presents, cooking etc. I don’t know how any of you have coped having overnight visitors, I can just about cope with a few hours and I still can’t wait until they leave although I make people most welcome I promise.

This thread has helped me realise I’m not a miserable mare, it’s so hard when everyone else is seemingly having a ball. I’ve loved Christmas but am made up it’s over for another year.

Count me in with this.

The dog is fine but everyone else can fuck right off!

I get very quickly peopled-out after a couple of hours. Always have done. I don't make excuses/feel any guilt - we're 'allowed' to be alone/quiet if we want to be (when we DO have a choice - some situations make it impossible)

This is absolutely me.

Love the kids immensely BUT will feel better when they are back at school and I can work from home and breathe!

One has ASD and he needs to decompress indoors with a computer after being social. In many ways it I see exactly the same in myself.

People are exhausting.

So glad I found this thread!
