Always find myself moving, tapping fingers or feet, chewing pens and the like, even when I feel half dead. Anyone know any reason why?

if you live in cali... go see Doctor ... get diagnosed with ADD or ADHD ... get a "card" ... visit a "pharmacy"... take your meds problem solved.
Is this an all the time thing or a recent development you have noticed?

It's called being hyper and it never goes away  My leg bounces constantly if I'm sitting. Laying in bed I unconsciously wiggle my foot. It drove my ex nuts.
It burns calories, so my doctor says, so go with the flow. |

| | | | Cheers for the feedback. I've done for a couple of years or so. Or at least I started noticing. It does help playing bass. I am certainly more animated that any of the guitarists!

I've done it as long as I can remember, It doesn't really cause a problem, as soon as I notice im doing it I can stop, although I generally don't. It's therapeutic 
But I am also a constant fiddler, if I am sitting at a desk I will screw around with something, generally spinning a pen or something.

Or cop out like the other 75% of the population, label yourself, and go get a script from the suit wearing drug dealers. |

If you're near your 30's, or older, count your blessings!!!

| | | | I'm with JoeNerve on this one.
A lot of health problems can be fixed by a change in diet, it's usually the most obvious fix. But enough about that.
Just out curiosity are you talking about RLS (restless leg syndrome) or just a matter of high sugar intake? I have a family member with nerve issues that presents much like RLS but throughout her entire body.
A doctor would probably be able to diagnose your issue better than a guy on a bass player forum. Wow, even better, maybe you'll find a doctor on TB! So you can have someone to jam with and to cure what ails you.

If you become paranoid, it means you have herpes!
