I have the same problem.. I stutter hardcore and I have those wild tics too 😂 My friends give me hell about it.. They joke and laugh behind my back and in my face. I laugh too because the tics really get the best of me at times. I have problems ordering food at fast food places, I avoid talking to women on the phone lol i just text until I'm comfortable. I'm quick to tell people if you call me... I'm not answering lol I tell them that (They already know how my mouth is set up) I'm a 34 year old black male.. 6 foot. I'm a Certified State Security Officer in 2 states... Never let your tics or stuttering make you depressed. It hasn't stopped me one bit. I had to learn to embrace my tics and stuttering... I use to be angry about my tics most definitely. I still hate them till this day but you know what.. I found my inner peace with them. Every time I have a crazy tic episode I play it off by say Nooooooooooo My System is Glitching 😂 it drives people wild and they laugh with me. Tics are cool. Stuttering is cool too.. because its me. It adds to my personality.. I'm smarter than most my friends. I play sports Video games I RAP What helps me is thinking about what I'm saying... inhale, Exhale, inhale again then speak I also developed a slower form of talking. I make people wait for my words. If they can't wait fuck them lmao shoot me a text
