When I'm nervous I tend to reach up the back of my shirt and scratch my upper back and shoulder blades. I notice I do it when talking to some people and I have to refrain. Is it normal?

    I do this too! Although stopping when people are looking is a good idea. I've gotten some strange looks for this one.

    Maybe it's your way of relaxing. The back scratching is probably making you feel comfortable when you're nervous. I think it's normal.

    When I was younger, I used to take one of the curls of my hair and start playing with it. I hardly get nervous anymore. How boring.
