Like in candid photos and videos and stuff.

Are you usually humbled or pleasantly surprised?

Usually mortified. I try not to look at myself at all

I don't see myself as others see me in a physical way. I am my own worst critic and I will see the negatives in my pics etc

When others speak of my personality and my behaviours then yes I can see those both positive and not so positive.

Humbled. I had to review CCTV footage at work and saw myself and it was an eye opener.

In addition to appearance, I also realised I walk really weirdly so now I’m trying to change the way I walk which is harder than you think it would be!

Seeing people on videos and photos is quite different to seeing them in real life..I think it is anyway.

Sometimes, quietly impressed considering how unfit I am/have been.

Other times not so much.

I usually want to cry.

I rarely join in when others are taking photos as I hate how I look and I never seem to be able to relax in front of the camera.

It depends. Sometimes I look and think I look good. Sometimes I see my mother staring back at me

But I really hate hearing my voice on a recording. It sounds so different to how I think it should

I have absolutely no idea how others see me in pics so couldn't comment.

Being mix of weegie and Ayrshire it's my voice in videos that gives me the fear. Although I am told I don't sound as bad as I think.

What a coincidence, I've got some Skittles in my pocket.

To my eyes, everyone who has said they don't like it, look absolutely brilliant to me. We are our own harshest critics most of the time, I hate seeing myself in pictures.
