I think fidgeting just reflects what's going on inside. I fidget mainly with my hands, but if I make an effort to stop them, the effort means either I forget what I am saying, or the figet will come out somewhere else, like in my toes. Have you ever held the end of a cats tail while they are flicking it around? The flick just travels further up the tail - like it has to come out somewhere (I adore my cat by the way and never do this in a cruel rough way, just when we are having a play).

Sometimes I do try and stop, by sitting on my hands. other times I am glad I am wearing a scarf with tassles so that I can twist them around.

If T mentions it either I do try and stop, or I just take note as well and carry on fidgeting - depends how I am feeling.
