Description

I feel no shame in admitting that this happens to me. A lot. I am extremely prone to overthinking how I walk, especially when a stranger is walking behind me. I suddenly get worried about looking like an idiot, and the extra brain cells it takes to worry about this must divert my brain’s attention away from basic motor skills. If you’re ever walking behind me and I suddenly start listing in a particular direction, I have suddenly forgotten how to walk properly. And if you’e ever walking behind me and my footsteps suddenly become more measured, that’s me trying to counteract my ridiculous overthinking.

Anyone else guilty of doing this? Or is it just me and Winslow?

You need to perfect the art of spacing out and/or panicking while you walk
I have yet to trip while overreacting or thinking other things while walking.

I recall something from an old psychology textbook - "We modify our behavior not based on how we see ourselves, or how others see us, but how we THINK others see us."

Really is. Especially since I realize that I'm looking even more stupid.

Not this exactly, but my late mother used to tell me to stand up straight when walking. Due to being overly conscious of this, I'd end up walking like a stiff penguin.
