1. Small Body Movements

An anxious person tends to make small movements that are often unconscious, such as wiggling their feet, fiddling with their fingers, or twirling their hair.

3. Playing with Objects 

Anxious people can play with small objects such as pens, pens, or coins, or they can use fidget devices such as spinners or anti-stress rubber bands. 

4. Lack of Concentration

Restlessness often occurs when a person feels unfocused or anxious. They may start fidgeting when they are bored or stressed. 

5. Anxiety

People who fidget may experience higher levels of anxiety than other people, and fidgeting can be a way to relieve that anxiety. 

6. Talking Too Much

Some anxious people can also be fast talkers and talk too much because it's hard to keep themselves quiet. 

Fidgeting is not always a problem, and in some cases, it can help a person to stay focused or relieve anxiety.  However, if fidgeting interferes with a person's daily life or activities, it could be an issue that needs attention.
