This shows up in my communication style.
I can truly enjoy being in a large crowd at live music or a cultural event, but I require a significant amount of alone time.

Sometimes you feel so overwhelmed that it's impossible to just unplug and relax at the end of the day.
To be honest, sometimes it feels like your life is being held together by an intricate, delicate web of apps and charts and schedules.
