Do you look anxious?

I think no. I've been told I'm serious and too quiet.

Same here, Hellhound. I've been told that I'm very serious and very quiet. I actually once had a girl straight out ask me if I was stuck up and that's why I didn't talk to anyone, which isn't the case at all. I hope I don't appear stuck up to other people because I really am a nice person, even though I don't always initiate contact with others.

When I try not to look anxious, I don't think I look anxious. I do remember one time we had a lock down in school and the teacher told me I looked the least worried and was the calmest one there. I really wasn't anxious about the gun in our school, but was still quite uncomfortable about all the people around to talk to.

I think I look more uncaring, or indifferent, about things. I smile, but I don't look sincerely phased by things. Some people take this as depression, others take it as mellowness.

Oh yes. For one I always have my eyes open like superr wide, so I think I just look really scared all the time. I know I look anxious too though. I'm always twitching, and moving, or making some kind of weird movement. I also always get the "What's wrong?" or "are you okay?". I mean I don't really care, it's whatever. I just can't look comfortable when I don't feel comfortable.

I get told that I look "shy" sometimes. But it's much more than just being shy. 🙁
