Yawning under pressure?

Post Reply New Topic

Do you ever yawn excessively, not out of tiredness or boredom, but out of nervousness, sensory overload, or something else? This happens from time to time, and I have to try really hard to conceal it. But then its hard to keep my eyes focused and to lift my mouth into a happy or even neutral expression. I'm afraid that its going to get so bad that tears are going to roll down my eyes. Something to do with breathing patterns, I guess. But anyways, the only excuse for that under my belt is "yeah I'm tired but I'm still trying to focus" so it isn't causing me too much trouble.

Yes - I yawn excessively when nervous or stressed.

When I'm in the middle of singing I yawn. I really try not to, but I do.

Yes I do yawn allot when feeling stressed-out.

No, but when I'm uncomfortable, sometimes I fake a yawn. I don't know why. It's my way of pretending to be so relaxed I can actually yawn...LOL.

Birttany, some guy is spamming almost every topic. More information is in the wrongplanet.net forum. I recommend ignoring them for now.

In regards to the original question.. I have never started yawning under pressure. It's just not what I do.
