I stole these from a livejournal community I read. Sometimes I'm anxious in a conscious way, sometimes in a more unconscious, unintentional way, but it's almost always there, unless I'm physically exhausted (which is a good argument for getting more exercise, of course.) I noticed recently that I sleep curled up in fetal position with my shoulders hunched up toward my ears. I'm not sure when it all started, but I became conscious of it when I was 17.
Work has been interesting because I've had to push through my phone anxiety repetitively. I can't say I'm getting any better at making phone calls, or any less anxious about it, but at least I do it and accomplish what I need to accomplish.
