Actually Vocal is the rarest form of it there is. Most people have Motor
tics. As I do. With very small vocal ones. The force part, I can tell you
from experience, it's not a force, but then again it is. IT's like, you
feel compelled like you HAVE to do it to feel better.

You're not sitting there tyring to be a dick head but you can't help it.
Imagine the most stressfull you've EVER been. Times that by 7 and you're
almost close to how it feels everyday all day.

You ever hear of people who are worried and just stressed out who would
clean a lot? Like a person who cleans the kitchen 42 times or somethign
while waiting to see how their daughter is doing in the hospital.

Tada! You can now understand how stress makes you do weird things.

I have OCD as well as Tourrette's and ADD. All 3 are related. Meaning I
have a temprer, I mnight swear a lot, and my IQ is LARGE.

You know what really helps? God, Opiates, music, writing, and some
arrogance. You might seem like an asshole to others, but at least you'll
feel better.

Oh, and do NOT do Cocain. You think Tourrette's makes you look funny now
try that and you'll be locked away, weed however, actually calms it as
Opiates allow you to explore it.

Funny how it works, something that helps me could have me arrested.
