Sometimes moving and rocking or dancing helps calm and sublimate those types of urges. Ever heard of "No Lights No Lycra" or the "Five Rhthyms" or "Swing Patrol"? They are all dance events without alcohol and with varying levels of anonymity.
There are fancy names for some of our behaviours on the net, but at the moment, my urges are just back to nail biting. I have decided to wear my nails as a badge of honour. I am not going to invest more energy into concentrating on nice nails as I dont give a toss about nice nails, and if people are nasty about them, and sometimes they still are i give those people the flick. But there are levels . . .
Be kind to yourself.
