Sometimes my personality flips the moment i step outside my apartment?

It doesn't happen all the time, maybe half the times. and the result is pretty exaggerated. the moment I step outside my door, I'm a different person. I'm confident, secure, responsible, talkative and have a good head on my shoulders

if I'm at home, usually wasting away on the PC, I'm quiet, antisocial, pessimistic, procrastinating and live inside my head

Is It Normal?

  • It's persona that you are referring to, not personality. How you act different around different people and environments. I would guess you are an introvert as you prefer to spend more time alone.

    • Ha. I actually did originally write persona but then changed it because it's not thag common of a word. I'm not sure how or why you would say I'm an introvert when I assigned positive attributes to me being outside... but you are right for the most part

      Because I feel inherently I am an introvert but then again I have phases of introversion and extroversion. The past 3 days I have displayed extroverted traits, several weeks before these three days I was incredibly introverted. It fluctuates for no apparent reason

  • We behave differently in public compared to how we behave in private. It's normal human behaviour.

  • Just be glad you're the opposite of me. Confident at home but a total wreck with no confidence and low self-esteem when I go outside.

  • I don't know why it happens but it happens to me too. I guess it's normal.

  • It's because your mind is no longer sheltered from the mind-control rays when you've left the safety of your house!!!!

    • You can't be both an extrovert and introvert. These are personalities, unless you have a mental disorder, they can only be changed over time.
      It's persona that this is referring to. How you act different around different people and environments. I would guess this guy is an introvert as he prefers to spend more time alone.

      • is there a reason you feel the need to tell other people how they feel, or want to label them?

        • I'm not telling anyone to feel anything. I said I was guessing that he was an introvert, and what I said before that is true...

    • I run up the stairs like a dog at home, but I stopped doing that in public because of all the staring and screaming it caused.
