MBTI

I get depressed when I stay home by myself too much.

 

For a long time I thought there was something wrong with me. I wasn’t making the connection between being at home and depression. After all, who doesn’t want to work from home and have all of that time to yourself?

Then I took a course to become a certified practitioner for the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI) and I finally got it.

Aha! That’s why I get depressed sometimes when I’m working at home.

 

I’m an extravert.
