Perfect recipe for panic attacks and also her green eyes would probably be too red to hide. Also I don’t think she smokes before public appearances or at least not anymore.

She's so incredibly uncomfortable so she's trying to hide it. I'm more and more convinced she has some kind of anxiety disorder. She should try kundalini yoga... She used to annoy me but now I see she's more like me than I thought. The “been here done that” attitude is only a facade. She’s so incredibly uncomfortable so she’s trying to hide it.

Her awkwardness and alleged emoness is exactly like me (a social anxiety sufferer). I've had people ask me before, "What's wrong with you?" or "What's your problem?" when really I'm trying so hard to be normal, be friendly, be casual. It's just not easy for some people, and I think it is very easy for social anxiety/phobia to be misconstrued. On top of that, she could be taking classes or therapy - those things help, but it doesn't cure it, nor does it make the phobia vanish quickly. I have been in therapy for my anxiety for years, plus I have tried medication and anxiety classes, and I still struggle with anxiety every day. I look just like Stewart when I go out in public places and deal with people. On the outside, I look like I don't want to be there, or don't want to be talking to people. But on the inside, I'm struggling with my thoughts and fears, and want so badly to be comfortable in whatever situation I'm in, and want to be there even as a part of me wants to run away.

Now I think they are for real but she likes girls too. I also think she is very anxious, like maybe she has panic attacks and/or severe GAD, but because she is so bright and intriguing, the adults in her life didn't get her any help when she was a teenager. I also think she has a mind that is quick and needs a lot of stimuli in order for her to be calmer. This is not a compliment to her; that kind of thing is innate. She is responsible for learning to wrangle her own mind. On the other hand, the kid is 21 and grew up a child actor in a family of grips in Hollywood. I think she will make more sense to people later, but I have trouble caring about whether or not she does make sense. It's refreshing to see someone who stays focused and shows real talent, while still being themselves, without going the way of Natasha Lyonne for example.

Shyness and anxiety are very different states of mind, and a part of me wonders if Kristen hides behind her shyness to cover up her real anxiety. I sound like a K-Stew apologist! ;) But I guess I'd rather be one than dislike her whilst she's still under such intense scrutiny and unable to cope. Then again, she can try to act like she's OK and up for it, as other readers have said. She's an actress! That's her job. And handling the media is a part of that job. Kaiser's right: nothing wrong with getting some help if you need it. Shyness or anxiety in actors may be common but it's not incurable, and professional help may be less fun than pot, but it's really in her best interest to change this growing perception of her being entitled and emo.

KStew cannot act, is masculine and does not look natural in makeup. I wonder who was responsible for selecting kristen for the twilight series. I cannot watch it with her in it.

They pulled her out of school. I think she didn't learn proper coping skills and her parents sheltered her.
