Wow, so can relate to so much of your post, sugahorse! Am definitely an introvert though --except when hypomanic, then won't shut the heck up! And not so much on the strong thing... more serious but usually joking (does that make sense? Lol.) person at work, even though being a rather silly person in "real" life. As much as possible outside of depression anyway. And the spending time in your head sentence? Yup. Total sense. Waffle? Doesn't sound like waffle to me! But if you think it is waffle, waffle away! Hope things smooth out for you soon, sweetie!
