Hmm... let me think.
He definitely notices it. He doesn't look at me weird or anything. I usually stand up more when I'm having anxiety or agitated. I don't stand there and talk to him, I sit back down and then talk.
Sometimes he tells me things like "You seem agitated/anxious today, what's wrong?" or some variation thereof.
The thing with me is that I just DO THINGS; I don't really care about the other person's possible reaction. I'm not worried about being liked/disliked. I think you should do what feels comfortable. That's why I do it... I like to feel comfortable. Excess energy HAS to go somewhere, or you will become more anxious or depressed. My T agrees.
Hence, my T tells me to exercise a lot (and I usually do but have fallen out of the habit). I'm only now getting back on that horse.
