I do it to help myself focus. I did it ever since I was a little kid. I’m often unaware I’m doing it unless someone shoots me a weird look or tells me to stop. When I took final exams in high school, it was disruptive enough that people several rows away from me felt the floor shake. When I took my full day graduate exams in college, I’d notice that my calves felt sore at the end of the day from the constant workout I was giving them. Probably linked to the same reason I chew gum a lot when I need to focus.
