Trying to describe a full or partial body dystonic tic to someone is wild.
They're slower with a pulling/tugging sensation that lasts a long while leaving tension.
Like I'll slowly raise my shoulders and have to remind myself to relax, and it's hard to stop
Muscle cramps that never stop and circle my body in a wave. I need meds for that as it's AGONIZING.
Full body ones will make me ask stuff like "Is that an earthquake or is my nervous system shitting bricks?".
