Best Answer
Getting up out of my chair or even bed to go physically confirm the presence on my dresser of my wallet, keys, and pocketknife. I do it a dozen times a day routinely, more when I am anxious. Due to my thinking about it in answering this, I will go check on them as soon as I finish typing this ...

Biting my nails, and a jumpy right knee. Annoys others more than it annoys me.

I pick at my nails with my other nails, sometimes ill bite them. If im sitting down sometimes my feet will start doing 'bass pedal' motions I believe out of restlessness. I don't like to be in one spot for too long, maybe its the ADD.

fidgeting, biting fingernails, picking at the corners between the finger and nail, causing them to bleed, chewing on pens, and shaking (when really nervous)

I have a terrible nervous habit - my whole family does it - I bite the side of my mouth. It is all torn up and it hurts so bad but I can't stop - I am trying really hard but its not easy - sometimes I find myself doing it without even realizing it. Sometimes my boyfriend will give me his mouthguard from hockey to wear (after it has been sterilized, of course) so I can stop long enough for it to heal.

when I go to bet at night my left leg starts to have a nervous twitch (light kicking actions) and it is very annoying.

Picking my fingernails
Playing with my hair.
Looking away from a girl who looks into my eyes.
Oh sorry you asked for a habit, as in one.

I have several. I gesture madly. I bite my lower lip. I 'rock' my ankle while sitting. I wring my hands together.
Twirl my hair around my finger. Smoke.

i hypergroom when i get nervous... i see that my nails are uneven so i bite them to get them all the same length... then i'll happen to rub my eye and see that a few eyelashes came out on my finger and so i'll spend a few minutes pulling out "loose eyelashes" (kind of like pinching them between my fingers and pulling a little bit to get the ones that are about to fall out anyway)... then ill notice i have tiny blonde hairs between my eyebrows (which only i can see apparently b/c i've asked hundreds of people, including strangers) so i'll pluck them out with tweezers... then if i happen to have just eaten i'll pick my teeth constantly even though i can obviously see there's nothing stuck between them... the list goes on and on
