SCIENCE BEHIND
INTROVERSION
One major difference between the brains of
introverts and extroverts is the way they respond to
the neurotransmitter dopamine.
Dopamine is a chemical released in the brain that
provides the motivation to seek rewards.
When dopamine floods the brain, both introverts
and extroverts become more talkative and alert to
their surroundings.
But dopamine is more active in the brains of
extroverts than in the brains of introverts.
Introverts use a different neurotransmitter called
acetylcholine.
Acetylcholine makes us feel good when we turn
inwards.

CONCLUSION
To conclude, introverts are normal people who
just need more private space and time for
thoughts and analysing. They can communicate
with others, but feel better at home in their shell
with people they know and feel safe with.
