As a sensitive introvert, I often feel slightly hindered by my lack of ability to hang for long periods of time in the fast paced, productivity based, always ON, highly stimulating, world.

I move into the deep thinker's flow state when I read, do research and learn new things. My inner critic [...]

I don't know if I could make it as a 'normal' person.
