What if people wonder why I move my shoulder blades and blink a lot?

We all have our quirks. That is what makes us who we are - unique - and uniqueness is special. So be proud of your uniqueness because while you may wonder why you move your shoulder blades and blink a lot, people don't notice either of those at all. They are really focused on two things. Their own insecurities about themselves and the beauty that they see in the uniqueness of you that you never recognise.

People generally don't tend to notice what other people are doing as they are absorbed in their own activities. If they do ask you about it then try to give an answer that would be brief and comfortable for you.

A lot of times when I've worried about what people would think about me having odd compulsions or movements, I've had to remind myself that most people don't notice me nearly as much as I think they do! They are far more worried about whatever THEY are doing. So I remind myself of that, and I have an answer I'm comfortable with handy in case someone actually seems to find me odd. I'll just be as lighthearted as I can if I think someone noticed (like, "Oh, sorry I'm XXXX, I've been stressed lately and get a little twitchy!" or "Ugh, you ever just get so restless you can't be still?"). I don't think I've ever had anyone actually ASK me why I was wiggling around, but I felt better when I had an answer ready ahead of time!

I don't worry about this, for both. I just know what is my mindstate and what I have to do to make it better. When I meet people who make fun, I feel pity and now I joke about it. Others know and guide me :)

I've seen many people do that. For some, it's just a nervous habit they may have. Unless it has to do with some sort of medication you are on, that would cause ticks, it should be harmless. It MAY be an indication of a condition, but you should not make that assumption on your own (nor would I be qualified to make such a diagnosis, just throwing out some possible theories). If you are concerned about it, I'd definitely speak to your doctor about it. Good luck!

Then they must be very bored in their own lives, if they actually feel the need to bother you with stupid questions. You do you. Don't worry about anyone else, it's not their business.

People always wonder the most weirdest things so no reason worrying about it. Sometimes its good for you to just ignore it unless its said to your face.

More often than not people won't even notice your movement or blinking unless you mention it to them.

I don't think many people would think or ask that, and if so just let them know why you do it, and if you don't know why you do it, just simply say you don't know why but you do it anyway.
Can anxiety cause me to feel depressed?

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
