Uncontrollable behavior
Earlier it was all good but now I feel very weird when anybody is around. I am not able to control my facial expressions even if I try to which makes people think I am very annoyed with them. I am not able to stay normal as I usually do when I am alone. It doesn't happen when I talk to people whom I do not know. I am always very awkward with people I know. Since my own behavior is not under my control, it makes me frustrated most of the times. My relationships with people are worsening as they think I am not happy with them which is not the case. Whenever I try to act normal in front of people with extra efforts, I become even more awkward and thinking about it makes me even more uncomfortable. Earlier this used to happen for a few minutes but now the problem has worsened and I feel awkward all day long if anyone is present around me. I am not able to stop it. I fail everytime I try to fake normal facial  expressions. When I am alone, I am normal. All this is getting worse with time.

Hello practo user I can understand the concerns you have regarding your overall health. There is an indication of an underlying stressful situation which could be contributing to these issues as well. You can try and practice deep breathing and meditation which will help clear the mind of negative thoughts. Go for regular exercise to keep your mind and body healthy . Try and maintain a diary in which you can note down your thoughts and feelings on a regular basis . It is advisable that you seek help from a clinical psychologist for better understanding of your case and formulation of a treatment plan through regular psychotherapy sessions.  You can also reach out to me through the practo app for any further help or guidance.
