I don’t know if i’m an extrovert or introvert

Yes for introvert, No for extrovert.

So I’m an introvert who’s anxiety causes me to talk way more then what a introvert manages to do. But rather than it sounded monotone and emotionless I deal with social situations with what I can only describe as insanity mixed with enthusiasm. When I get talking my energy is at 100% and if it’s a savory topic such as a debate over politics or morals etc, I get a rush that I can only somewhat compare with sex. On the other hand internally I’m telling myself to be quite and put myself into solitude. And when I’m with my family or friends I tend to be the mellowest person in the room.

Am I just a mix of both or is there something beyond an introvert vs extrovert divide?

    You may be what is called an ambivert. That is the word for in between an introvert and an extrovert. It is an existing term and worthwhile looking up.

    most people are on a spectrum between and can widely fluctuate while in different moods, environments, and time. people always like to stamp themselves with one or the other, and while it is true many people lean heavily to one side or the other, most of us all feel introverted sometimes and extroverted other times. and its normal for even those who ARE mostly to one side of the spectrum to still also have times when they feel the other side pulling at them more. truth be told, a majority of us might have tendencies to one side, but it's really just part of being human to sometimes want to be social and to want to be alone other times.

    so in other words...that's a long winded way of saying ....don't worry about classifying yourself to one or the other.. just be yourself.

    I don't know but when I come across people like you described, I turn and walk away. I don't even bother saying anything because they wouldn't hear me anyway.
