What's the difference between:
"I feel tense."
"I feel tensed." I am more familiar with this sentence.
They are both adjectives. It's confusing...

@1015e,
Native English speakers don't usually say they feel "tensed".

Yeah. Chill. Don't be tense.

@contrex,
thanks... "tense" is an adjective so no need to add "ed"...

@1015e,

Careful. What about "stressed"? Rested? Excercised?

Are they used to say "I'm bit nervous?" Or "I'm stressed?"

I merely meant they would not use the participle ending in -ed. They would just say "I feel tense"
