People who do not want to actively communicate with others

Not wanting to actively communicate with others may be a manifestation of personality traits or psychological states, usually related to factors such as introverted personality, social anxiety, depressive tendencies, traumatic experiences, or autism spectrum characteristics. Long term avoidance of socializing may affect the quality of interpersonal relationships, but moderate solitude is a necessary psychological regulation for some people.

1. Introverted personality

Introverted individuals restore psychological energy through solitude, and their brains are more sensitive to dopamine, leading to fatigue from excessive social interaction. This group of people tends to engage in deep communication rather than extensive socialization, manifested as selective silence rather than social barriers. Cultivating a small number of high-quality interpersonal relationships and setting social time limits can help balance psychological needs.

2. Social anxiety

Excessive concern about negative evaluations can lead to active avoidance of social scenes, often accompanied by physiological stress reactions. Gradual exposure training in cognitive-behavioral therapy can improve symptoms, and short-term use of anti anxiety drugs such as paroxetine and sertraline can alleviate symptoms, but it must be done under professional guidance.

3. Depressive tendencies

Decreased interest and motivation can significantly reduce social initiative, which may be accompanied by sleep disturbances and changes in appetite. Fluoxetine, venlafaxine and other drugs can regulate neurotransmitters, while also requiring social function training. Social withdrawal lasting for more than two weeks is recommended to undergo depression screening.

4. Traumatic experiences

The defense mechanism formed by interpersonal trauma can lead to active alienation, manifested as vigilance towards intimate relationships. Eye movement desensitization therapy and narrative therapy can deal with traumatic memories, and establishing safe social experiment scenarios can help rebuild trust.

5. Autism spectrum characteristics

Social motivation innate deficiencies are associated with neurodevelopmental differences, often accompanied by stereotyped behavior and sensory sensitivity. Social skills training needs to be accompanied by structured environmental support. Medications such as risperidone can improve accompanying emotional problems, but core symptoms require lifelong adaptive adjustment. Maintaining a regular schedule and moderate exercise can improve basic psychological state, and gradually setting social goals such as having a brief conversation once a week. Allow yourself to refuse socializing in non essential situations, but be wary of complete self isolation. If accompanied by sustained low mood or functional impairment, it is recommended to seek psychological assessment. The balance between solitude and socializing needs to be dynamically adjusted according to individual psychological needs, avoiding using social frequency as the sole criterion for mental health.
