I believe I have mild Tourette's, although I've never been diagnosed. No health insurance, but I figure it doesn't really make a big difference to have it made "official" or not. My tics are really subtle, I think. The most common ones are jaw stretching, blinking and eye rolling, making an odd but quiet "hmm" sound, and toe curling.
My question is: do you find that talking or thinking about the tics makes them worse? Maybe I'm just noticing them more, but when I read about other people's tics, I feel a much stronger urge to do mine.
