Needy/Extroverted/Introverted/Whatever

I am normally an introvert. I don't usually need people around me a lot of the time. However, lately I have been feeling what I think is extroversion but feels like neediness. I want attention, I want people around me and I want to talk and talk but I am so scared of being seen as needy. Is it needy to want to go out? To no longer just want to sit at home playing with my cats and reading books?

Also, I have been posting a lot lately. That also feels needy but I think it might just be that I have a lot to say lately because my head is so full of thoughts right now. I love that I can feel myself becoming more the way I want to be but it is stirring up a lot of things inside me too.
