An introvert’s guide to hibernating after being forced to attend that NYE party

Like Nick Miller left alone in a fancy restaurant not knowing which knife to kill himself with, introverts might have had a tough time at the NYE party they were forced to attend. If you are one of them, here's how you can recuperate!

Three days into 2024 and most of us are already done. Especially the introverts who were forced to go out and celebrate the year coming to an end. No matter the year, we introverts prefer to be alone and spend time by ourselves. It’s not because we don’t like spending time with our friends, we just LOVE to be alone if given an option. We know what we signed up for when we decided to be friends with extroverts who love to party but that should not be the reason for them to include us in plans that we would rather avoid! 

The energy it takes for us to not panic and try to be present in a crowd is a task that we would never be prepared to face. NYE parties are always a big deal among friends but despite it not being everyone’s cup of tea, people are made to attend one. As we deal with the idea of having to show up for yet another year, we decided to make a guide for introverts on how they can unwind after having to meet people while welcoming a new year.
