Need some help on defining problem!

Hey everyone, I figured this was the best place to go. I am 20 years old and I believe I may have some sort of health/medical problem that I am unaware of. I have never really talked about it to anyone. My parents and my brother knows because of when I was younger and my friends have noticed little things to, but I am too embarassed to actually talk about it and I guess I never really realized that I may have something. Anyways, here it goes - I have this thing where I get excited and make certain faces without realizing it and I use to shake my hands a lot. When I was younger and I would see something on TV that I got excited about I would maybe even jump up and down a little with my left hand tighten into my right. This is where it gets really embarassing, I use to take something like a magazine, big book, anything I guess I could use to take my aggression or exciteness out on, and I would get on the floor on my knees with the magazine/book, listen to music and shake the book in the floor. When I listen to the music I would imagine the person singing in my mind like I was the one in the concert or something. I use to act out scenes from shows and stuff (I love TV/Music) in my head and talk aloud while I also would do the floor thing. I did it when I was young, so I never thought nothing about it, but it embarassed me when my dad or mom would walk in and see me doin it. The last time I did that I believe was maybe a year ago when I was alone, but I still regularly get excited and shake my hands and my friends even notice me making faces occasionally and tell me I dont even notice Im doin it. I can think something and get excited about it and sometimes I notice, but I guess its second nature for me and I really look stupid. Does anyone have any idea on what it may be? Besides all that, I am a pretty normal guy I guess, lol. This is all sort of embarassing so I hope I can actually find some answers and any suggestions or help from you all would mean a lot. Thanks so much!

Re: Need some help on defining problem!

Sounds like a mild case of Tourettes to me.
