Do you pace back and forth?

[Edwardo Piet]

I also jiggle my legs an awful lot when sitting. And I can't stop myself from doing it unless I sit on my legs and that hurts after a short while. I can't stop sitting on my legs either.

I sometimes bite my finger nails a lot and have occasionally done it enough to make my finger tips bleed :S

Pffhht... If they ain't bleeding, you ain't doing it right.

I pace back and forth when I'm bored, anxious or excited. I get restless very easily and it's also a side-effect of my medication.

I do it because I have too much energy to sit. I tend to pace the most when I'm deeper in thought. I tend to loose large tracks of time from this.

I pace up and down a lot to music too, I can't sit still when music is on, and since I can't dance, I pace.

Ditto - especially when the music is energetic - like techno or alternative rock.

I love music, but I'm getting sick of my pacing, it pisses me off.

I keep all my music on my Verizon Chocolate Phone, so I just put some earplugs on and pace all I want. It's also a great excuse to go outside for a walk. I need my exercise anyway.

Do you pace back and forth?

Any ideas how to stop doing it?

Yes and yes, but it mostly involves willpower.
I choose just to work with it.
