first time pulling the hermit reversed, is it always like isolation gone wrong?

so I've been doing this for like 4 months now and finally got the hermit reversed for the first time today

upright I get it - the whole taking space, going inward, seeking wisdom alone thing. makes sense to me as someone who needs alone time to recharge

but reversed?? every description I find says something different. some say its forced isolation/loneliness, some say its avoiding your own thoughts, some say its literally the opposite - like youre overdoing the alone time and need to come back out

is it always kind of a negative pull or does it depend a lot on the spread

honestly for me it was more the "avoiding your own thoughts" version. like I pulled it during a time I was doom scrolling instead of actually sitting with stuff I needed to think through

following this bc I always get confused on hermit reversed too. the "too much alone time" reading makes sense for me rn tbh, I've been kind of avoiding people

update: sat with it for a couple days and I think it was pointing at the avoidance thing for me too. been making an effort to actually reach out to people this week instead of just retreating and it's helped more than I expected
