That makes alot of sense ECHOES. I did have a very hard time sitting still in a desk. I was the kid who constantly "rocked". I mean, I even rocked in chairs that were not rockers! I busted the springs in two couches from doing that. I realize now that my obsessive rocking was probably due to anxiety. I would rock so hard that I banged my head against the back of the chair/couch.

Back in the early 1970's, we were taught to sit up straight, with feet on the floor in front of us. That was terribly hard for me. I am sure that I got in trouble alot for not being able to sit still. When I came home, I rocked for an hour or so. I can still remember doing that until I collapsed in exhaustion.

Hearing from each of you is helping me work this out. I am beginning to see that my emotions do not necessarily indicate that trauma happened. But maybe it was the "change' that happened at that time.
