Sometimes I think I am coming off too nice or needy or desperate and think, I need to tone it down a bit, but then I worry I am coming off too cold or distant. It's a constant struggle.
I noticed the other day at an interview (have been job interviewing) that I nod constantly "yes" and I noticed it made me seem way too eager.

I do tend to that quite a bit, analyze how I am talking, my body language and when I feel i've screwed it up (too eager, too angry, too cold) I get flustered and really start messing up. I have a long running dialogue with myself that increases my anxiety through the roof.
You are definitely not the only one
