For a while I was wondering if I was subconsciously making tic like movements in public without there really being a tic.
After thinking about it for a while I have concluded that it's not accidentally faking, I am ticking more when I notice someone's eyes on me as it's uncomfortable and makes me anxious.
Also responding to them has become so natural that I barely notice them most of the time, and isn't as shocking.
I tic more when I feel #anxious.
