I knew I wasn't alone with this. I developed tic movements after a second small concussion in football and have had another concussion since then. I have seen a team of neurologists who seem to think that the tics are only from stress and anxiety which I do not believe because before this all I had very little of.

I don't tic very much any more but I took ativan(lorezapam for about a week and a half) and withdrew really bad so I had to taper off, now I take topamax which has helped.

I have tic movements mainly in my head, where I twitch to the right, but also in my eyes, face, front of my neck, legs, pecs, arms, and feet.

I also noticed my tics got really bad when I tried to sleep and so I used to think of a song, tapped a beat with my fingers or feet or played guitar and the tics would stop. My neurologist said tics are distractable.

My head is so sensitive from my concussions that I don't take showers otherwise my tic movements flare up again. I've been taking baths.
