I do this in my house. Pacing from kitchen to living room, my wife is thinking of putting me in a looney bin, she understands a little why I do it. I do it to soothe me from anxiety and it is a bit ocd for me as I have to reach a certain amount of steps, which then becomes a little annoying. I suppose it keeps me fit. And also in my back garden I do it.
I do this when I have to make or take a phone call. I literally walk around in circles in my kitchen.
Hey,
I've seen this quite a lot, so you're definitely not alone! My boyfriend does it often, especially whilst on the phone as a form of stimming.
I used to do it as part of my teaching approach, moving around a horseshoe of students, keeping them guessing whose turn it was next etc. i also used to pace around the room while the students were doing…
I move about the place when using my phone, too.
I must remember to destroy those kids after my breakfast has been eaten! :)
