Communication - feelings
As humans, we communicate our feelings in many ways. We give other people
“messages” about the way we are feeling without having to actually “say” how we are
feeling.
If you are feeling anxious, you may constantly look around, try to hold someone’s hand,
start to sweat or feel the need to sit down.

nervous
