I do a lot of strange feet things, like rubbing them together, and I do curl my toes.

I still do it from time to time. Dont recall doing it much when I was a kid though. I only do it when I am exited or very happy. Or today because I hurt my right ankle and it hurts to be lower down.

I always walk with my toes curled like I'm holding onto my shoes. I think I also sleep with my toes curled. I think my toes are curled right now. Yep, look at that. Wow.

I do this as well,very relaxing(but not for my boyfriend,oops)


I noticed the toewalking after learning about AS....it was weird to realise that I was doing it...but only barefoot on hard(non carpeted)floors...dont know why.I used to curl my toes a lot as a kid...not while walking but as a form of stimming when nervous or bored...The tips of the toes are really sensitive,like finger tips and it feels good to me to feel them against my shoes.

Did you know that people curl their toes during orgasm...it is supposed to be an involuntary response but if you exaggerate the movement it will make the feeling stronger....just a thought.

I seem to do that once in a while. Normally I don't notice these movements because they've always seemed so natural and I never gave them much thought. I also clench my fists involuntarily, sometimes, when my hands are in the pockets of my coat (sometimes grasping a bit of the fabric). I'll be walking down the street and notice all of a sudden that my fists are clenched tight and all sweaty from it.

I also notice that I tuck my thumbs into my fists.I do this mostly when I am stressed or going to sleep.Seems to comfort me to hold onto my own thumb.

I do weird feet things too, then my feet do weird things to me, like cramping, then I have to stand up
and pace around a bit to get rid of it. The worst cramping comes in the middle of the night. Aaaahhhhhh!! !! ! :!: :!: :!:

It may not solve the problem but you should try eatng a banana before bedtime,the potassium is supposed to help.It's worth a try,cheap and not bad for you.(I have foot cramping and restless legs many nights,especially from to much or to little excercise.)

What exactly is toe curling?
Is there a picture?
Perhaps an explanation would be better, though.

I do this every time I sit. Most of the time I don't even realize it until someone says something about it appearing uncomfortable to them. I'm not sure I can even sit without doing it. It would feel very unnatural to do so I think.

I do that when I sit, sort of. When I'm sitting down, my toe nails are on the floor and my feet are vertical.

when I'm walking barefoot I place my feet first and then the heel.

I think I remember hearing that before the shoe was invented that's (the feet first heel second thing) how people walked.

I curl my toes when I am sitting. I never gave it much thought. I just figured it was a me thing.
