I twirl my hair, cross and uncross my fingers, crack my knuckles. my doctor says for me it has nothing to do with any mental disorders, physical disorders, and nothing to do with my meds, just the way I am and its natural.

I also agree.
Why I've never mentioned a word about it to my daughter. It's just a natural thing for her.
Mannerisms which contribute to the individual and nothing to worry about. What makes them so special and unique.
