                        I used to walk on my tiptoes as a child.  Apparently it was just habit in my case.  I can remember my mother telling me to "get off my toes" an walk properly.  She would have to tell me over and over.  I just remember that I liked to do it.  I hope that is the case for you and not something more serious.
