Well my situation is a bit hard to describe so I'll do my best. Ever since I was very young I would get the uncontrollable urge to tense muscles in my body. To a bystander it would look kinda strange; I often open my jaw real wide to stretch the muscle or tense the muscles in my hip causing my body to move in strange ways. There are many more examples of little things I do to satisfy this urge. Lately I've noticed I've been doing them more frequently and others have noticed as well. Im beginning to develop pain in my hips and jaw from doing these things but i cant seem to stop even with the pain. Im not sure how to talk to my doctor about this because im not sure if the source of my problem is physical or mental. Has anyone ever heard of something similar?
Do I have a medical condition? Or could this be OCD?
