Why do I do this?

[Achathin]

It's hard to explain. When I watch videos on different behaviors, I act more like the behavior that the video is talking about.

Heres an example: I watch watching a video on ADHD symptoms. Oddly enough, I started acting out those symptoms semi-consciously.

I knew I was acting them out, but I really didn't know why. Nor did I stop.

I do this to so many subjects. If someone is talking about depression, I start acting sadder.

Do you know what I'm trying to say? It might sound complicated. Do you do it too?

No but if you Google the description you might come upon it. I guess some reading wouldn't hurt so you identify things and can work on prevention.
