How do you walk?

that's the thing man, I don't think I walk weird, I mean I'm just fucking walking but I don't really know. I just psych myself out when I think about it.

I had the same issue about three years ago.
My inabilty to stop walking strange resulted in me spending about a year of therapy. Its actually a type of mental disorder. It's caused by anxiety and body dysmorphia resulting in an uncommon form of hypochondria. Whatever you do, don't think about how you are walking otherwise it will worsen and next thing you know your life will become an irl Ministry of Funny Walks.
Dude, sometimes I just walk like a fucking freak
I think it's because I have a stuff upper body, like I don't know how to relax my torso
I'm also a lanklet so I have weirdly long arms
Anyway, sometimes I think I walk like Steven Seagal runs

Don't think about breathing, either. DEFINITELY don't do that.

I have a mild case of cerebral palsy. I know this feel. If someone just notices it I don't let it upset me. If someone makes fun of me for it I just make a mental note that they're a simple minded piece of shit and I don't associate with them.
My friend made fun of me in school for bouncing when I walk. Then eight years later I'm on this site and people are talking about the autism bounce. Figures
Anyway I'm pretty sure I phased it out
Who else walks on their toes from time to time? or did so growing up?
I've hid it from everyone except family so far, and noone has ever mentioned it other than "oh you grew up doing that"
Record yourself walking and compare. (But somehow you can't know you're being recorded,otherwise you'll try to walk a certain way?)

My friend had some of issues with his feet medically and he has to walk with his toes perminently and his lower legs are strong as fuck.

Reminder that no matter how you walk, you can achieve great things.

Some spergs kind of dip their body downward when they walk. Are you sure you're not doing that?
