1. Ask yourself why do you have to be an extrovert. Several advantages come to mind: More connections, more confidence, better relationships, no stage fear, better small-talk, better dating life etc.
2. Understanding why you don't like being social/going outside. Write about it. Start from the first moment. Is it because of your parents? Did your siblings make fun of you for expressing your emotions/feelings? Is it your classmates in kindergarten/primary/secondary.. etc.
3. Now that you understand the cause, have hobbies that make you an extrovert. Covid examples: Online group lessons, hiking, walking in the park. Post/Pre-covid examples: Social dancing lessons, Meetup.com (weird crowd sometimes but hang in there), group lesson in any topic you're interested in, toastmasters, team sports. Think of something you always wanted to do.
Here's how I'm coping:
1. Reactivated my introvert side with
a) Reading more books
b) Learning to play music
c) Online singing lessons
d) Exercising at home: i) Strength ii) Following through Supple Leopard (book)
2. Going outside once a day for a walk. No exceptions.3. Chill at the emptiest park on the weekend.
4. Going on a hike during on some weekends.
5. Small talk and saying Hi to random people on the street.
6. Cleaning the house
