The tic started when I wasn't on any med and it was horrible. It was going wild crazy bigtime. People were laughing at me at times. I got rejected for jobs. I went on disability because of the tic and PTSD and depression. I got on meds and stayed away from people. The tic is often triggered by being around people a lot, I don't know why. It comes out of the blue sometimes even when I am not around a lot of people. It's like the dam thing is telling me "I'm still here to torment you". I feel so bad when it happens. I don't tell people I have it because I don't think they would understand. I assume they think something is wrong with me, though. I take low dosages of meds right now because I get really bad side effects from higher dosages. Like prozac, I only take 40 mg. My doc wanted me to take 60 but it made me have to urinate all the time. Thanks for taking the time to listen.
Right now since I am hardly ever around people for the past 20 years the tic happens occasionally.
