I think it depends on the situation, but I consider myself an introvert. When I go to public places with a crowd, I feel anxious and confused. Listening to music always helps me. This is my lifesaver. I like music; I enjoy listening to it, and when I do, I feel calm and relaxed, which helps reduce my stress and anxiety.
