A) I'd bite my nails and the surrounding skin till they were all bloody messes. I have recently stopped doing this because I was damaging my front teeth. I have chips and grooves in my front teeth from having done this for so long.
B) Cracking my knuckles and my neck. The neck cracking must appear odd to others. I would do it as an almost spasmodic response to anxiety. I would just all of a sudden snap my head side to side.
C) If my anxiety becomes to high, I will just all of a sudden get up and excuse myself, which usually meant going home, where I could feel more at ease. Sometimes, i won't even give a reason for leaving and just go.
