I get what you mean Ella. I have a smaller church (I think), and we tried a soft opening last Sunday. A lot of people showed up. It was weird. No one was wearing masks or anything, but people toned done the hugging and high fiving we all do and I didn't have to work the coffee bar. They didn't do snacks either (we usually have a butt ton of snacks everyone digs in on). Pray for safety, I'll pray too.
Also, Happy Pentecost!
Happy Pentecost to you as well!
I got to go to church!!!
So I think me having tics might explain why I just. Frickin twitch all the time. (Also a common side affect of ADHD so more evidence.) So that's nice to maybe pin down. Mir, you know what's up in that department. Do you have like your arm just shoots up and clenches? I feel like I could stop it, but it's really sudden and I don't see the point. Normally it happens when I'm stressing though. The more violent ones. Whatever that means.
could be a tic shrug
kinda hard to say
shrugs That one isn't the only thing, but it's the one that probably happens the most.
some of y'all are fake as fuck and that's a fact
that is all
Dom- so you said you could stop it, is it almost like a sneeze? You could hold it in, but it's more satisfying to let out? Or is it more like an involuntary muscle twitch, where you could watch the tic happen and feel completely disconnected?

Spill the tea
no
Mir you can't just say that then not explain

I guess so. It's like, a millisecond before it happens my brain is like IReallyWantToDoAThing and then it happens. And I think I could stop it, because I feel the signal before it happens. It's like I will it to happen instead of it being automatic. Except I don't really mean to.
I wish you'd call me out, Mir. It would be interesting.

Ah, I get it. Tics, especially when it's the clenching of muscles, can almost always be contributed to high levels of anxiety. With all that panic surging through the body, it has to be released somehow. If you can, find ways to fully relax your mind and muscles. Maybe during prayer? Exersize also helps release some tension.
Tics aren't inherently harmful, but if you start having compulsions to harm yourself (slapping yourself, hitting your head on things) then it's time to take it more seriously.

yEAH WELL FUCK YOU

Ah, true I didn't think of that. I revise my statement: Tics can cause pain and if you start having compulsions to harm yourself, then it's time to take it more seriously.
I guess I was only thinking of tics like finger twitching, spasmatic leg movements, tongue clicking, stuff like that. But yeah, there's a plethora of other tics that cause pain by themselves.
ooh! call me out too!!!
i'm fake as hell :DDD

It was too vague to have any meaning.
