Addicted: You may be fixated on the stretching of your wrists. For example when someone starts to crack their knuckles, the increasingly feel the need to crack them. Perhaps you could come up with an interesting intervention to keep yourself from stretching your wrists such as wearing a brace or new bracelets. Something to remind you that stretch of your wrist is not necessary, Perhaps the urge Will subside
