I do the neck thing all the time, I’m afraid everyone around me at school thinks I’m crazy...
oh i have that I know How to stop it
1). Drawing
Becuase It Helps U focus Or Relax ur Body
2). Go To church And Pray
3). Go outside and Play
Same, except i know that I’m crazy and so does everyone else 😜
Ur not crazy I the beginning of torrents syndrome
Same I always get the neck tics and backs like moving and my shoulders like reach out sometimes
@@hiperel1848 100% no to the second one. Thanks
I have social anxiety and get tics in uncomfortable social settings. I literally thought I was the only one and thought I would never see or meet someone with a similar issue. I genuinely thank you for this video. I now know that I'm not crazy.
Classy Chris aw yay I’m so happy whenever I find out another person has anxiety induced tics too! Thank you for your comment 🙂 we’re not the only ones!
Me and you have the same thing. It is getting in the way of college
I just found out today what it was.. I had it forever & whenever my head would twitch or something I’d be even more embarrassed
Wow I though I was alone and weird as usual
So that's thing
@@sammykellum8967 same 😊
I have social anxiety and I do this a lot, but especially in public. It’s kind of embarrassing. Instead of small twitches, I’ll jerk my head sometimes. It gives me headaches lmao...
theres a such thing as anxiety tics
I do too. Really bad. It’s embarrassing
It's hard explaining to others that my social anxiety causes neck tics/tremors/shakiness, but I'm really grateful in finding that I'm not the only one who experience this. I've alienated more potential friends than I can count because of this embarrassing tic and wish it can go away on its own 😔😔
I have the same issue, especially if I do something embarrassing I get really bad for a while
OMG THIS IS JUST LIKE HOW MY STRESS TICS HAPPEN FINALLY I KNOW IM NOT THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES THIS
I’m really happy too. I’ve been having these tics for about 2 weeks now and I’ve been trying to find out why. This seems like the answer :) I’m just hoping they don’t get worse.
SphexyGaming your not alone bro!
saaammmeeeee
Watching other people’s tics makes me tic more 😭
I'm really having trouble finding content related to tics NOT related to Tourette's.
Really appreciate your content.
I have a VERY similar tic, except I have a wierd nod. Thank you.
Same but now I'm not sure I'll ever find love how could a woman love that?
@@bassyttv1198 My boyfriend has a tic. It’s really bad right now. It would never get in the way of my loving him. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. Please try not to think like that! 🙃
@@juneohara65 thank you maybe there is hope for me
I can hold in my tics, but when I do, it’s the worst feeling. Weirdest thing is nobody knows. Family, friends, colleagues, nobody knows. Craziest thing is I feel so relaxed when I see someone tic, in a weird way kinda makes me feel normal.
Hey, Someone close to me controls/holds tics too, and I never get the courage to ask, what is it or
like talk to me about it, let me help you go through this because I don't want them to feel bad about themselves.
I really love them and don't want to point them out but want to help.
Your help is appreciated! More power to you Man! Thanks
Your really pretty and I like your eye shadow.
Angela Smith aw thank you! That was such a lovely comment to read first thing in the morning 😊💕
*you're
Simp
@@Redennce5985 shut up
I dont have tourette's but I do all of that for no reason
go see a doctor, if it really is nothing it’s probably stress making you a little jittery
It’s a stress disorder
You have tourettes if you are doing those and for no reason 😂
Trust Valentino Nope probably stress disorder or ocd ticks !
@@Dahmer_Jeff Not necessarily. It could just be a Tic (Yes people can have tics without a disorder) or a Stress disorder or ocd tics
girl i FEEL this. when i have full time jobs i have like DAILY anxiety attacks that lead to throwing up, back spasms, numbness in my arms and more. and when im working from home on writing or just flat out unemployed they are so rare, so i feel you i hope you find some coping skills, always here if ya need to talk
Magical Molly wow, I’m so sorry Molly, that’s so much to deal with. I hope you can find a good gig that lets you work from home 💕
i just got a sudden stress tic where i shrug my shoulders and jerk my head to the right, and now i’m watching a lot of videos abt tics
same right shoulder for me..
Ohh that explains my ADHD tics. I get so stressed from not moving that I.... I don’t even know what the hell I start doing. I fidget and my face moves oddly. I crack my neck. But I’m fine. And faces. Holy shit. People make fun of me cause they don’t understand.
Omg I think I have ADHD tics I mean I know I have ADHD I don’t do it at school bc i take meds but when it stops working I move my head around to crack my neck and once I kinda already done it I keep on trying and just hear creaking I just do it bc I feel uncomfortable I also blink a ton I think it’s just bc my eyes are dry idek
Sophia and Layla I. Love. You. Because I get it! 💜💜💜
OMG SAMEEE
Please don’t say holy then curse 🙏🙏
kamtoro sam I’m not religious
i’m actually writing this during a tic attack. i’m trying to find ways to stop it because it’s making my neck really cramped and the feeling before i twitch makes me feel like i wanna cry. it makes me pretty embarrassed when people point it out at school and very weird.
i have tics its really annoying in class when my stress tics kick in and i have other tics that come on like that and people look at me like im crazy and it makes me want to hide
Yeah, and it's so bad when they laugh at you
@@FreshBread699 or when they think you are acting it and they tell you to stop it hurts
Oh my God, I’m about to cry. I saw your other video then went straight to this one today, and I’m almost in tears because I’ve been experiencing this recently and apparently had this in the past too, and I got scared and felt alone and like no one understood exactly what I was going through. I have both Generalized Anxiety Disorder and mixed type ADHD, so I didn’t know what was going on. I didn’t know the cause and I was afraid I was faking it almost as a fear, though I couldn’t be and I loved how you described it last video as being like a sneeze because that’s exactly how it feels for me. But to hear your story and see other’s in the comments, it makes me so happy. And you’re right that it isn’t the worst and I love you attitude towards it. Thank you so much for these videos.
Blake Johnson I’m so glad you found comfort in knowing you’re not alone. Making these videos has helped me so much because so many people have commented and now I know I’m not crazy! I have generalized anxiety as well. I still don’t know too much about anxiety-induced tics but if I come across any more useful info I’ll definitely make another video to help spread the knowledge.
Erin Anastasia thank you, that would be amazing! I’ve just recently discovered I actually had the same thing happen to me many years ago (8 or so) and apparently I may have been ticking since then, and now maybe it’s resurfaced? But honestly, your videos have helped me so much, and I can show them to friends to help them understand and it’s just amazing. So thank you.
Also side note, since these videos I’ve been watching some poetry you’ve done. Love it!
Blake Johnson aw you’re so sweet! Thank you! 😊😊😊
A SNEEZE YES!! That's exactly what it feels like!!!
I also have tics. Sometimes I feel like I’m alone even when I know I’m not. Thank you for your videos to show awareness. My tics are the worst when I’m stressed also ❤️
I also am a sufferer of anxiety driven tics. It’s very worrisome to me and I am extremely self conscious about it. I have had vocal and motor tics off and on my whole life. You can over come. You seem like a very confident woman and this video really helped me feel like I’m not alone. Thank you.
I have I tik where I sniffle every like 25 seconds because it feels like I can't breathe but I'm not doing the sniffles I'm tiks are
I have the same thing!! I also twitch my nose and shrug my shoulders as if they aren't straight. My mom points it out about my shoulders and makes me feel ashamed about it but I feel the constant need to do it as if my back isn't straight
@@corneroflifeandvine yay I'm not alone and I have this thing where my right hand constant shakes and twitches and my legs twitch and shake to

“I’m here I’m tic ing ...”
Hey beautiful so cool of you to share your life with us and shed some light on this topic. Hoping things get better.
This is me!!! Thank you. I love that I’m not alone.
wow, I suddenly develop nervous tics during the most stressful week of my life and decided to look it up. My symptoms are exactly like yours!
Id not really paid attention to me kind of barking, until i saw this video and started thinking about it. Recently i started clenching my teeth so hard; sometimes i feel like my teeth are going break then i make like a barking noise or some sort of weird noise when im stressed and focused or just stressed but mainly when im stressed and focused on doing something. It really hurts my teeth because i clench them so hard and i hurt my vocal cords because i try not to make the bark too loud. The times i had realized what i was doing i tried chewing gum and i usually end up chewing every stick of gum in the pack and i can rarely ever get gum so its really hard to stay doing that thank you Erin Anastasia for this video as well as the first video because without these videos i wouldve never fully realized i did that
I have mine when I’m nervous but I also get set off from watching other people tic
omg, this video is changing for me. I dont feel so alone anymore and know other people are going though this. Thank you so much. bless you
I’ve dealt with anxiety for over 10 about 7 years now and only just started having these “tics” as of summer of last year when I started a really stressful job. It started only at night but then it started affecting my ability to even drive. Now that I have a less stressful job they don’t happen as often but it’s still almost daily. Just feels good seeing that someone else is going through it and actually seeing similar tics to what’s been happening to me
Any solutions?
I loved the way you chose to film your latest poem! It was beautiful and impactful. Writing, burying myself in editing work (100+ pages a day 10 hour days sometimes), and video games are my coping mechanisms for "dealing" my depression and anxiety.
Kerri B thank you! And oh snap. That’s hard. Cause it’s like hooray I’m being so productive but also, maybe I should slow down and address my mental state? I get that way with cleaning. I’ll deep clean my entire kitchen for three hours straight on days my anxiety is peaking.
@@ErinAnastasia A lot of my anxiety stems from not feeling productive enough. I can thank my mom's ex boyfriend for that. He used to yell, "Why don't you get off your ass and do something? You kids are so lazy" at me when I was watching TV a few minutes after getting home from school nearly every day for a few months til Mom finally got fed up with how lazy he was and kicked him out after finding out he was growing weed in our old barn (he was on a combo of weed and painkillers, otherwise he was super nice). I was 16. I'm 24 now and I still get choked up just thinking about it.
Kerri B wow what a loser. I’m sorry 🙁
@@ErinAnastasia it helps to remind myself on the days I feel like I wasn't productive enough, "Hey, no, you did so much! Look at all the pages you edited!" It also helps to scroll through everything I did at the end of the day. Of course, sometimes that backfires and causes me to do more, but it's better than just sitting in that feeling and doing nothing. 🙂
Thank you so much for posting I have this EXACT same neck tic. Usually when I am working on the computer or when I’m on the couch relaxing after a long day. It happens more when I am thinking about something I wish I’d done differently. Thank you!
Literally 90% of my tics are caused by me re-living social situations hah. I'm glad to find someone who can relate! =)
watching and listening to you has eased my stress and relaxed me to the point that my tics ceased thank you
Oh wow that’s so wonderful to hear! I’m glad I could give you a little mental break 🙂💕
Thank you for making a video about this. I have struggled with overwhelming tics for about 15 years. It is incredibly frustrating 😭 by the way you are gorgeous and from the outside looking in I would never think any less of you. ❤️
That’s so sweet of you thank you! And I’m sorry to hear that you’ve struggled that long with them 💕 much love
Love the attitude towards it. Erin for the win
Thank you for this video, be yourself, I have motor tics, my eyes blink and my eyebrows raise.
Keep being you!
I love your standpoint. Love yourself regardless of everything.
The way I did the rapid head movement tic seconds before she played the clip :')
Glad i found this video, this year i noticed my foot tapping and anxious hyper movements i had got worse and the tics started, at first i felt it was just a bad habit that i could stop but then the tics got worse when i started uni and it triggered my tics like crazy, it was embarrassing and i felt like i was being seen as crazy. But seeing other people also have them makes me feel relieved
This will sound weird but i love videos like this because it makes me feel less alone, I have tics too and I'm constantly making excuses when people asks me why I have them
I’ve had this problem for 30 years and it seems to be getting worse. Well the stress is bad now too. I can normally hide it but not so much anymore.
I do the neck twitch constantly but I don't have diagnosed tourettes syndrome? It's also the only thing I do
Update: i still got it. I've gained a few vocal tics "wow!!" "Heehee" and "woohh!" They kinda suck. The neck twitching thing is now also two times quickly following eachother horizontally with my eyes closed. I also smile sometimes. And lift my shoulders up but i also do that with the neck one. And I clap and slam the desk.
A thing I've noticed I have them mainly when it's cold. Like a shiver. I don't think it's tourettes
Could be a stress tic.
Also one tic is not really a thing to worry about :) (thats what my doc said. 1 tic is fine 2 or more go see a doc)
@@TwitchyMoth | thank u ♡
@@TwitchyMoth i have about 6 tics, havent been to the doctor tho (dont want to either, i hate him) but could it be possible that I have tourettes? I also have random tics like the neck one or just slamming my keyboard and when people make a weird sound i feel like i just HAVE to say it again or multiple times. My mom says I'm just exaggerating...
@@TwitchyMoth They hurt sometimes and make me really tired and i just want to get rid of them
@@yara9747 The diagnosis criteria involved having them befor age 18, having vocal and Motor ones and having them longer then a year with no bigger break then three months.
I'm not a doctor and there has to be Tests done so it can be sure that nothing else causes it
December 2020
i'm not alone :)
I'm so sorry you get tics, My neck/body tics started on valentines day in 2018 possibly because of the parkland shooting and how much seeing that event on T.V. scared me. Lots of people give me mean looks and stares because of them, I feel really insecure when that happens. seeing you video made me feel better because now I know others go through the same and similar tics that I do thanks for uploading.
I have a tic with my head and now I have a non stop head ache.
I seem to have this problem too. Seems to come when I am under pressure
Thank you for making this video! I have been having these neck jerks constantly for about 6 years! I have extreme anxiety! It gets so bad! They make me so angry and I just want to scream! I’ve been searching for remedies but I don’t actually know what To call it!
One thing that helped me was yoga and getting a neck massage
Made me feel more loose
Hey, what asanas you practiced? Your help is appreciated

I’m so happy to see ppl that live with these damn tics I’ve had since my early childhood all my life it’s so annoying just can’t ever get used to it 🤦🏻♂️
I hope it doesn’t get as bad as mine. Looks like yours are how mine started. Thank you so so so much for sharing. It’s nice to see others out there like me.
yep, I got the same thing going on.
started at home. now its spweing in my work place..
so, subconsciously I try to hide it, but it progressing
I always shake my head right and left fast, grunt hard and smile hard, and now they are getting worse
I would also like to say I love your attitude on this subject.
Thank you. Now I don’t feel like a freak
I’ve been dealing with this for 8 years and I actually started crying when I saw this video because I always thought I was the only one who had this. It’s always been one of my main problems when it came to anxiety and stress and I even get them when I grab something or give someone something If that makes sense.
I also get this when I eat as well
nicole delatorre I’m so glad I could let you know you’re not alone! And I think I know what you mean. I don’t experience that as well, but I can imagine how the stress of small interactions like that can trigger them.
Watching ur neck tics triggered mine 😂 but Omg so glad u made this video cause I was confused on why my tics would go away for so long then came back randomly
I have tics but I couldn’t name a specific date where they started. I first really noticed them in March 2019, but the vocal tics are new.
It was a relief to see her
THANK YOU FOR POSTING THESE VIDEOS ABOUT YOUR STRESS TICS. I've been looking for information on this for years now. Mine started out small, I thought I was just popping my neck, and became more like neck jerks, and continued to get more and more intense. My problem now is that they are so rough, I whip my neck so hard or attempt to "get the itch" and can't reach it causing more stress and more tension, my neck, shoulders, jaw, and head are consistently in pain, but I can't stop. I got prescribed anti anxiety meds, migraine meds, NOTHING will help me. I feel like I'm going to snap my neck, but I can't stop it.
Omg
Omg same same
I have similar tics but I only do faces and cramp my neck it really hurt and makes me feel so insecure, I use to tic alot when I was younger, had just a few unnoticeable tics growing up and now the got so much worse. I‘m really worried how they will develop when I‘m older because I don’t know how to cooperate. But seeing you master them as well makes me so much more optimistic.
Omg!! I do also like a weird squeaky bark! It happens while I jerk my head to the side suddenly.
Thank you, your video helps me to understand what exactly it is
When I was young, probably between the ages of 10 and 15, I used to have a tic with my eyes. I used to blink really hard and long, or wink in the same way. Watching back some old family videos and it's really obvious to see now, years later. They went away more or less completely into my early adult years, although can make return visits, but these are very rare and usually last hours at the most and then I won't have them again for months and months. Most recently and for the past couple of weeks, I've had a bit of a head jerk tic. I notice that it only really comes on at home, I don't notice it at work. Whether that's because I'm thinking about it at home and that's fuelling the fire..whereas at work I don't have the time to really think about it. These tics for me are completely controllable. They aren't involuntary at all. If I stop thinking about it, take my mind completely off it and just force myself to focus on something else, they do subside. If I start to think about it...like I am doing now (in full head jerk and blink mode urge writing this comment), they are naturally a lot worse. I think the biggest fear for a lot of people is tourettes...or the symptoms we all think of when we hear the word tourettes. Like...it starts with head jerks and blinking...and it ends with walking down the street telling everyone to f*** off twenty times a day. It's naturally scary. But I think a lot of it is stress/anxiety induced.
I got this involuntary head motion for now like for 4 months after I dealt with my panic attacks. I didn't know wt it caused or why it happens. And today I decided to get to know abt wt happens to me and found this video. Now I hv a ansr. I'm so thankful to this woman.
If you're reading this, u keep going everybody and good luck🤗
When my mom passed away last year, within the same hour i recieved the news, i began getting tics. I got scared, and i thought i was crazy. And i could cobtrol it. As the days went on, it got worse and worse. My twin brother and older sister told me to stop or to just "hold my head still" but I couldn't do it. I told myself that it would go away with time. But then i would get another attack and it made me frustrated because it was still happening. Then a teacher at my school told me that he has it too, and his eyes just twitch, he's had it for years and it never really goes away, but you learn to live with it. That wqs the best advice i had recieved. Soo it disappeared, and I hadn't thought about it. It was crazy, almost like my body had forgotten how to tic. But then one day i got really stressed, and it happened again. It got so bad I had to go to the ER and they had to sedate me. My neck twitches far to the side and i clench my teeth and squint my eyes. When it gets really bad, I've caught myself yelling curse words, like three times. It makes me so uncomfortable and embarassed because I know that people arw seeing it and thinking about it but they just dont say anything. Depending on ny stress and anxiety levels, they can be set off by sudden loud sounds, crowded rooms, or even the thought of my mom. Evn temperature changes, suches walking into an air conditioned room. Even when my tics became basically non-existent, I would still always get them when I got "chills", you know? Without fail, everytime. Even now. Even now I hate myself for it, like why can't I get a grip of myself, like what kind of loser can't even control his own body. They come and go, sometimes out of no where. Its been a year and three months, so I have to get used to it eventually, right? At least it's nice to know I'm not the only one.
You’re definitely not the only one. For a while I would get upset with myself too, I would think that I could control it, and that I was just seeking attention. But you’re valid and what you’re experiencing is out of your control. Sorry you’re dealing with this too. Take care 💕
@@ErinAnastasia DO you take any medication to help treat this?
I haven’t been diagnosed with Tourettes but I have anxiety and sometimes have tics where I have to hum at a certain high pitch or have to blink a certain amount of times. It goes on and off I go months without and then start again
You're awesome. I love this video
I have stress tics too, and they get really bad when I have deadlines, even if I have enough time to finish the work. I blink mainly on one eye and it looks scary. I also had a few years without tics, but I lived with different tics pretty much most of my life. 😔 I sought help, but it didn't work in the long run.
I have some ticks to!
I am twelwe and my whole life i have had a tick that was snapping my fingers.
But now i have my neck doing what you where doing at the start, blunking wierd, shaking and my hands hitting eachother
I am 53 and I have had nervous tics as long as I can remember….super frustrating. I do mine at home, but they definitely get worse if I am in a large crowd, like watching a basketball game. Some examples are: adjusting my bra, messing with my hair (like pulling my pigtail tighter over and over again when it doesn’t need it), fiddling with my glasses, adjusting my clothes (depending what I have on that day), the list goes on and on! 🙄 I used to type in my head when I watched TV. I would just pick a random sentence they were saying and typed that over and over. Sometimes using my feet to “ air type” with. I have tics that will come and go like the seasons, but other tics are a daily thing…. those never go away. Over the years, I have learned to hide them well from others. I came from a VERY abusive childhood. Am guessing that’s where mine originated?!!
I started having really bad tic spells and they scare me along with vocal tics. Would be nice to talk with people that are dealing with the same thing. Thanks for your video now i dont feel so alone
Oh my god, i do this neck thing all the time and i roll my eyes while blinking when im stressed/panicking/... but i didnt know that they were ticks!
This was a great video, thank you 👌🏾💯
whenever i am not getting enough sleep or having a lot of stress/anxiety my head will literally quickly jerk to the opposite side and it’s uncontrollable and repetitive and it’ll cause me headaches bc my head jerks SO HARD. like i’ll be looking forward and then i’ll feel an itch and my head will turn to the right rllt hard and quick making my head hurt. i have diagnosed generalized anxiety disorder ocd and depression but i don’t have tourette’s i’m confused
Very Interesting video. I've been trying to find out ....since a life time, what can be the cause of my tics 😅.
Buy aye, i got tics too. Some are habitual, others got in just few days. Was scared this morning because of the new tic which is super similar to head jerking ....might even say it's head jerking (been very stressed tho). Very nice video btw ^^ i like it
I have the same thing with the head movements though I try to keep them as minimal as possible but it only creates more tension
thanks for this video I feel less alone now as I have recently started to suffer from this same tic.s and I struggle so much with meetings., so thanks andI think it is stress.
I clench my neck when going to sleep until it cramps. I also have vocal tics making high pitched sounds. So incredibly frustrating and embarrassing. I constantly feel super hyper and exhausted at the same time. Hard to explain to people since I’m a 45 year old male who is otherwise attractive and in really good shape. My wife gets irritated and thinks I’m doing it purposely and tells me to stop. Wish I could find someone who is more like me or understands.
I move my neck all the time as well. I like to crack my neck to but I still move my head after I already cracked it. It’s annoying and I’m subconscious about it at school
I have motor tic disorder and got diagnosed on my first doctor's appointment after I explained what I have and how they feel. It helped that I had a tic attack the day before because I was able to explain what that felt like too. I highly recommend going to see a doctor about it... If you haven't already.
exact same head tic and eye blink. worst day i've had 1000-2000 now about 100 on good day 500 average. Knowtice eye blink is always happening during test taking or during solid modeling=(designing stuff in computer.) I'm mechanical engineer and take lots of tests 109 classes to graduate, completed 106 and in my last term. Hopefully I can hold it together to finish, also have bipolar, adhd and ocd. My life is hard, but getting through it and I know i'm mentally stronger than 99% of people out their having to deal with it all everyday. Plus I guess im kinda smart, get good job offers all the time for lots of $$$.

don't give up
even if family says they hate you and are done with you. They don't really mean it. Time is a healer for them, not for me. Time and avoidance is short term relief, inspire others to be mentally strong don't force it and try your hardest to only be nice to friends and family no matter how disrespectful they are.
you get more with honey than you do with vinegar-DAD-probably stole it from someone

don't hide the worst stuff that has happened to you, but don't force yourself to tell people. Wait for them to ask, especially if really bad things have happened to you.
Please remember mentally ill people are the ones who change the world the most, for good and bad-JH19
words cannot explain the capabilities that SOME mentally ill people have. Closet words to describe it= (unique, extremely talented and sometimes super weird)-JH19
Most importantly don't be afraid to get help, therapy for me is helping a lot, still have a long ways to go though.
I have the same thing when i’m nervous or uncomfortable i get like body jerks so i try to keep rocking my foot to keep my brain busy to not be nervous but it ends up happening anyways so i have to put my head down or hide my face then it stops when in at home its not there even on school break but it returns when i’m near any family member im not comfortable with i have to keep myself busy Like rocking my foot or moving around in order to not have a body jerk or whatever it is infront of my family so they don’t think there’s something wrong with me i tryed to study this problem of mines so i can finally tell my parents but i just never know what it is no matter how hard i search its just other symptoms that are worser to control than mines and aren’t similar and I can’t relate to those i just think maybe it can’t be help if i cant describe it or tell what it is
I have that neck tic thing. It looks like your doing the same movent that i do. Thats all i have though. I cant exactly tell in what mental circumstances it happens, but i think its when im even slightly nervous. Like i dont even feel super nervous but just a little and it happens.
I mainly get the head jerks when I have to sit or stand in a room with people I don’t feel comfortable with. I’ll tense up really bad & then my head will start to jerk. Sometimes limbs to. Playing it off like as if you heard a ghost or acting like you have an itch or just got bit by something isn’t fun.
I do most of those but the barking thing, I do clench my jaw and honestly I’m so not exited for school to start again, I’m going to a new school and I know I’m gunna be so nervous
I always have new tics one goes away another one comes in and now i do something and i just freeze my body on half a second it's awful
I have epilespy, and I was on meds, but I decided to go off them a few weeks ago and my mother called the epilepsy nurse and told her that I REALLY wanted to go off the meds. I hated them for many reasons. Around February (2019) I started noticing tics, and on the phone my mother mentioned weird twitches and sounds I was making, and even though she had never seen one of my twitches she told me they were myoclonic seizures, which I do not agree with at all. They happen constantly everyday, but myclonic seizures typically happen within a few hours of waking up, and involve both arms from what I research. I punch and hit myself, throw things, make sounds, whistle and sooo many more random things.
People think I'm attention seeking because when I tell them I was told they were seizures, they think I'm faking it because I couldn't be having a seizure all day could I? I don't know what to do tbh.
I know this was 2yrs ago but I’m gonna reply. I’m diagnosed with both tonic clonic(grand mal) and myoclonic seizures since I was about 11. You can have myoclonic seizures throughout the day. It isn’t just the arms or both arms it can be neck, leg, arms any part of the body in any order or variation basically. I used to throw my cereal in the mornings so I would sit with I towel over me. I don’t think verbal sounds are part of myoclonic seizures though so I would have to agree with you that it is more likely you are experiencing some form of tics or tic disorder. I always said myoclonic seizures resemble Tourette’s b/c they really do. I had over 20 in one class period when they were at their worst. Mine were primarily brought in by stress. My seizures are now controlled but I have noticed recently some twitches that don’t feel like myoclonic seizures
I should explain more I guess. To me when I had a myoclonic one I would have almost like a shiver down the spine and it felt like someone stuck a defibrillator to my chest and often times my breath got caught. These ones are repetitive and I don’t feel almost shocked. I can to some extent control them as well sometimes with the myoclonic seizures I had zero control. This is my best explanation even if you never see it or already have it figured out. But I have also hit myself when have a myoclonic seizure not fun so I relate hard. I hope you figured everything out
I hope you will get better dear ❤️❤️❤️
ik i did not just get the neck tik watching this- mid way watching this video my neck said “aha watch this” and did half a twitch and then a full one if that makes since
yo.. YOOOO.. r u me? we have the same tics!!! iv had those since i was a kid and was never educated about what it was until years later. i feel somewhat glad to know that im not alone and others know and share the same experience i had growing up (not celebrating your pain but you know what i mean).
Ok so from what I've seen of your tic attacks, mine are far more worse (not to flex or anything). I have around 5 tics, 2 in the neck (like throwing my head back or to the side(the first one is new and is very repetitive)), 2 with my hands (snapping and hitting my own hands ending up like a clap or hitting my seat) and 1 in my shoulders (they just jerk like when you say "I don't care" but instead of going upwards they go inwards) (idk if I explained myself well, but oh shit, why would you care?)
So, I usually (and by usually I mean most of the time) have them in my school and since school tends to stress me out it worsens my tics.
Like, a good 80% of my class for me is my tics and my classmates make fun of me or ask me to just _relax_ as if it would be that easy.
Fact: I've been having tics for 1 year and a half or 2 years, I'm not sure, but they never were this bad and just this past few weeks have they've been *_intense_*
Fun fact: my fucking neck hurts and I think I'm gonna break it one of these days.
Fun fact#2: when I said they are an 80% of my class I wasn't kidding. In most of my classes, every 10 to 15 seconds I'm twitching like a goddamn cockroach on Baygon (insecticide)
Fun fact#3 : this past week (Wednesday to be precise) I went out with my crush (haha kill me) and magically, I didn't have that much tics. Like, one or two every... what? 10 minutes maybe?
So yay for me for not making the fool around my crush although it was a bit awkward
Ok so um, that was it, I just wanted to let you know although no one is going to read this ;)
I'm sorry for my grammar and misplacing commas and periods. My main language isn't English so, sorry?
i think i have it too when im sooooo stressed like when im so concentred on a video game that it happens but i tought it was normal so i just take a break when it happens and i convince myself that i did it its not my mind or my body who did it and it goes away and now it hapens so rarely
sometimes i act like a robot my head turns abnormaly just like a robot is it tic?
I have the same thing Its crazy because no one believed me but mine are bad like I twitch my head and normally kick some are worse then others and mine have been around for along time not as bad anymore but when they do come it's bad usually happens when my stressed
My husband grimaces, grunts, touches his ear
Omg im searching for last hour for this as I've stiff like this since covi , that twitch neck is bang on it like a little swing to the left of neck ,
Thanks for sharing this. I always had periods of ticing since i was a child but didn't know what it was. I recently researched what it could be and found it was a tic. I tic by blinking alot and its really embarrassing i also sometimes feel the urge to make a squeeky noise with my throat to relief the pressure. I also noticed i hold my breath when im ticking. I dont know what to do about it. My recent tic has lasted over 3 months now and its really stressing me out
I have stress tics too but mine happen even when I'm not stressed. And it sucks when your chilling then you just hit your shoulder really hard or ur neck just yeets and it hurts :/
I never had anything like this I keep clapping and smacking my face and head and my neck hurts sm I almost cried it’s so tiring I hope it goes away tomorrow
I found you because I was looking for similarities that I see in my husband. You are so beautiful. You remind me of my niece.. the humor and mannerisms.
oh my gosh! I get those neck tics too. But mine arent stress related.
I have pathological laughter and I make little humph noises and I don't know how to get it to stop.
I get them also . Thank you for this video. They are trying clonidine but it's not working yet. Idk if I can live this way or at least not be happy I mean
Firstly ur so pretty erin I am jospeph from.morocoo and i have the same tics i shake my head to lift and right and also.have some.eyes tics all that because of stress but the symptomes started since the childhood
I never heard about nerveus tics before.
Normally when i'm stressed I will get a panick attack. But 2 weeks now, when I'm stressed twisted me neck and slap my schoulder.
Last saterday I looked crazy because I couldn't stop anymore and I was in a shop, so I got more nervouse and my tics become crazy.
But it make sence now, the tics have replaced my panick attacs.
I have just starting like twitching my head, ive never done this before and it's really uncomftorble
