what about when a counter strike server says "100 tic" what does that mean I don't believe that has anything to do with this.
Is anyone actively involved with this page? There is a lot of information here which just doesn't apply to tic disorders in general, Tourette's in particular, so I can't figure out what condition some of it was written for? I unlinked the Tourette syndrome entry from this article, as the information here does not describe Tourette's. I wrote a lengthy section on tics in the Tourette syndrome article, but it really belongs here. In fact, shouldn't this be an entry on tic disorders, encompassing transient and chronic tics as well ? Looking for input from others, but really think this article should have a major overhaul, using the information describing tics from the Tourette's page. Sandy 01:07, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
Tourettism refers to the presence of Tourette-like symptoms in the absence of Tourette syndrome, as the result of other diseases or conditions, known as "secondary causes".
Why is klazomania described in this, and in its own article as "compulsive shouting," and also as a tic? It can't be both "compulsive" and a tic! I know that's it's etymology, but nowadays we make a very clear and principled distinction. 205.212.73.217 12:50, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
Can anyone explain the difference between the "notes" and the "reference" sections? WhatamIdoing ( talk) 03:47, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
There is some confusion in media portrayals of tics. For example, in comedies, a person with muscle tics may haplessly raise their hand at an obviously inappropriate time and suffer the consequences. This is implausible: tics are semi-voluntary actions to alleviate the feeling of an unwanted, premonitory urge. One would not thrust his or her arm in the air as in Alien hand syndrome. (Hmmm? I have involuntary movement in my left arm... is there a citation for this theory?)
I would like to see information on tics that develop in adulthood, as my own tics didn't start until I was 30. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.1.22.78 ( talk) 11:26, June 4, 2008
This section consists of only one sentence, although the sentence does contain a wikilink. Should it perhaps be changed to "See Media portrayal of tics?" As it stands now it's totally inadequate. DQweny ( talk) 07:48, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
What are the cause of tics? I have tics myself. My diagnosis is Asperger syndrome with tics. I have the impression that anxiety, stress, nevrosis, but also positive excitment might cause an increased amount of tic. Tics are often related to a feeling of physical and psycholocial discomfort in my case. For instance tight cloths might lead to mee making tics. Any comments on that? -- Oddeivind ( talk) 13:15, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
I don't think all tics with OCD are compulsions. I get tics, twitches, spasms, etc. which my doctor says is due to my OCD. I can't control any of them, by which I mean I don't have a conscious decision to do so, like when I watch my hands. It's like a sneeze or a gag reflex. Totally uncontrollable and involuntary. 98.217.230.157 ( talk) 01:13, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

I'm not an expert, but I thought that the all too common "tic" of leg bouncing might be related to this article, but there is no mention of it. The Internet seems to indicate that it is a separate issue. Could someone who knows edit the article and say either that leg bouncing is or isn't a tic, and if it isn't refer to an article that does talk about it? Thanks Kellycoinguy ( talk) 22:43, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Re
The most common cause is Tourette syndrome
introduced in this edit by Whispyhistory and cited to this source:
On 3, I realize the cited source says this, but we aren't obligated to include content when it is questionable. Tic disorders not meeting diagnostic criteria for TS are orders of magnitude more common than TS, and they (obviously) include tics. Jankovic is a well-recognized overall Parkinson's and differential diagnosis movement disorders specialist, rather than specifically a TS specialist. Perhaps he meant the most commonly recognized or some such; who knows. But he published a rather gross and spectacular misstatement about TS in an NEJM article years ago (I am iPad editing from car now, but can return with that source later if someone wants it), that was the subject of letters to the editor pointing out the error, which is why I tend to cite him in his area of expertise ( tourettism, differential diagnoses and other movement disorders like Parkinson's) and seek other sources on TS per se.
I have never encountered this statement before, and considering the epidemiology of tic disorders relative to TS, it simply makes no sense. Any objections to removing it? Colin or Ajpolino, any ideas? SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 19:19, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
Other tic disorders are more common than TS... Provisional (formerly, transient) tic disorder is the most common; prevalence rates indicate occurrence in up to 20% of school-age children. Ajpolino ( talk) 19:58, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
