What is my problem?

by louiseox, Jul 14, 2009 11:40AM
Ever since i was little, i've constantly had uncontrollable urges to squeeze my fists, rub my hands or grit my teeth whenever i am excited or happy about something,also, apparently i 'make a face' when i do it. Most of the time i don't relise i am doing and am not sure wether it is a habit, or a problem, again, i have done it for as long as i can remember and continue to do it today, there was a point when my child minder noticed me rubbing my hands alot and got me out of doing it for a short period however i still do it and at some points it occurs more often and am worried it will get worse.

We live in a society that loves to label, you may get many responses , some may think you have this or that, but you know what, DOES IT INTERFER WITH YOUR LIFE? REALLY? If the answer is yes tell us how, is this (continued) anxiety for you?

If the answer is NO, then like you said you have been doing this for as long as you can remember, this is you!
