Hey Pandas, Tell Me About Your Nervous Habits (Closed)

Everyone has nervous habits. Me, you, your neighbors, and even the prime minister. Share your nervous habits with us!

Not a visible trait, but when I'm anxious my mind starts overloading song lyrics into it. Sounds good till you're seated in an exam, and the only thing that comes to ur mind is "AND I'M SO SICK OF THEM COMING AT ME AGAIN, CUZ IF I WAS A MAN THEN I'D BE THE MAN, (I'D BE THE MAN, I'D BE THE MAN)" on repeat.

Hey, I do this too! It especially happens if I read whilst nervous. I was reading Catcher In the Rye after a nerve-racking experience and all I could think was "Do you have the time, to listen to me whine, about nothing and everything all at once," over and over. I got no reading done that day..

I am perfect for this.
1. Little “tics”. Such as moving my toes rapidly, making strange sounds, or even hitting myself with something. (Just when my anxiety it over board)
2. Darting my eyes in attempt to not make eye contact with someone but also having to move ig
3. And just other little things like biting my nails, messing around with jewelry, fidgets etc.

If I get super anxious, I start humming. It annoys people. Annoying people makes me more anxious. The humming gets louder..
Vicious cycle.

It depends on the level of anxiety and the day, but the most common ones are bouncing my leg, messing with jewelry if my wearing any, picking at my nail polish, tapping my fingers, and reacting to every little noise like it's a bomb (idk if anyone else does that but like if I'm anxious and someone drops a pen I will literally jump)

If I have a beverage, I will sip it nervously. It gives me something to do with my hands and gives me a moment to gather my thoughts before I have to respond. Not a big deal anymore, but when I was younger, before I realized I did it, it could be dangerous when alcohol was involved!

Yeah when I’m nervous I sip sip sip. It’s worse when I have a straw for some reason

I feel the gaslighting part. I know it all too well

I think I might be unique here: banging my canine teeth together. It must be the right side teeth and it's only canine on canine action, no other tooth bumping will do.

Make your own doggy style jokes.

I think you meant leg, but the image of someone bouncing a keg when they're anxious is kinda hilarious.

I jerk my head a lot when I'm nervous. Also I bite down my jaw really hard which I don't realize I'm doing at the time, but it hurts later

I seem to be getting new ones every month, probably cause I tend to pick them up from fictional characters. Let's see how many I can list. Biting my nails, cracking my knuckles and neck, pinching and biting a little spot on my hand, biting my lip, pulling out my eyelashes, tugging on my hair, running a hand through my hair, playing with my hair in general.
