I'm not sure if I have mild tourette's or if what I do is a type of stimming. I make these eye movements where I keep looking diagonally up. Also I make tutting noises and go t t t t and things like that. I don't know if it's related but I also do this thing where I clear my ears, like when you need to pop your ears. I have some control over it, I try hard to not do it in public but they aren't that obvious so it's easy to hide them. If I suppress them it's always worse when I let it happen. It's always worse when I'm stressed too. The eye movements are worse and happen hundreds of times a day. What do you think?

Sounds like a tic.
