Default Do strangers openly pity you?

Apparently I look horrible when I'm not feeling well. Even though my illness has never even been severe enough to require hospitalization. Complete strangers are prompted to give me stuff. Examples: at a gift shop, another tourist gave my mother jewelry to give to me. Last night, even after reassuring the cashier at Subway I was alright, she put unpaid cookies in my bag.

Do you guys get this, too? I'm thinking of having symptoms at a car dealership
