Overall, Riley is an upbeat, honest, and goofy person when she is content. However, in adolescence, Riley becomes more sentimental, shy, and uncertain of herself as her other emotions begin to appear. By the time her family moves to San Francisco, she starts to be more troubled, irked, and lonely. Her emotions at this point try to help her get adjusted to the new life. Riley can second-guess herself, but she doesn't always repent her actions. Riley really misses Minnesota and is unable to cope with the transition. However, Riley is afraid to tell her parents her true feelings as they want her to accept the new home and because she has always been their 'happy girl'. As time goes on, however, Riley becomes emotionally vulnerable, entering a sort of numb state of mind and coming to the point where she tries to run away, almost losing herself in the process. But it is here that she realizes that she has almost given up on the things that matter most to her in life, and realizes the risk just in time. Returning home and admitting to her parents that she's greatly depressed, Riley learns to accept San Francisco when her parents comfort her over the personal loss, and Riley (with the guidance of her emotions) eventually adapts to her new home in San Francisco. With Riley's emotions now working all together and without one superseding the other, it would seem she had reached emotional stability. However, once she reaches puberty, she starts to feel her emotions more deeply, with any emotional stimulus, for more small it was, being multiplied. After learning her best friends wouldn't go to the same high school as her, Riley's behavior suffered a sudden change, with her usual upbeat and happy demeanor becoming anxious, as she tries desperately to make the hockey team of her future high school and be friends with a new crowd so she wouldn't be alone to the point of abandoning her old friends and feeling embarrassed whenever she tries to express her true feelings. Her desire to become friends with the popular girls caused her anxiety to become even worse, as she started to change everything about her to better blend in, even if that meant to do things she didn't like. After learning the coach deemed her not ready for the team, Riley started to project everything that could go wrong, leading her to have the idea to outdo Val, the best player, when she was a freshman. However, that caused Riley to feel like she was not good enough, leading her to act selfish during the final game and accidentally hurt one of her best friends. Eventually, Riley's anxiety culminated in a big anxiety attack. Only when she vented her worries to her old friends and they reassured her they would never stop being friends, Riley was able to finally find her joyful self and let go of her anxiety.* - Physical appearance: *In the first film, Riley is an 11-year-old preteen (later 12) with a slender figure.
