Compulsive twitches

2017-10-16 22:09:19
I've been having sudden twitches (raising eyebrows, stretching jaw and feet) and persistent compulsive throat clearing/sniffing for over a year, with it interchanging between different sounds/movements. Anything stressful especially brings it on however it is constant, what do I do?
