I have an analytic view of myself. I observe myself from the most objective perspective possible and then analyze what I have observed. This is how I understand most human behavior; through careful observation and reasoning.
Recently, I have discovered that I have a tendency to pace when I'm upset, anxious, or not feeling well. Now, when I notice myself pacing, I try and make myself stop. It's a waste of energy and it won't solve any of my problems.
I honestly don't know if this is healthy or not. I know that this is a rather common form of unintentional coping. It's kind of a staple in movies and TV shows. Characters pacing when they're distressed. I find it amusing that I also engage in behavior. Am I mirroring behaviors I'm seeing on television, or do a lot of humans actually do this to cope?
