I notice that when I get nervous, anxious or bored, I'll repeatedly rub my arm for no apparent reason.

I do this usually unconsciously, and only notice when I draw my focus away from what I'm thinking about/doing.

I'm wondering if this is like a nervous tic, or a symptom of my OCD (Since I have been clinically diagnosed) I'm currently not in any sort of therapy (having a hard time finding therapists that accept my insurance) though the one time I did see a therapist, I was unconsciously stroking my arm, and the therapist noticed and asked me about it.

I also tend to pick at my skin. This is a different, more destructive behaviour, but I'm wondering if it's also connected.

thanks
