Does anyone feel their contacts sometimes worsen your tics (eye tics specifically)? I’m trying to find a brand of contacts that doesn’t make my tics worse. Any tips?

      I've had that before, my experience is usually that I'm ticking a part of my body because I'm thinking about it obsessively almost, so if I'm anxious about contacts my eyes will twitch, if my socks are uncomfortable my toes will have tics etc. It might help for you to find really thin contacts that you can't feel so much, or to do some grounding calming things so that you can not be focused on how your eyes feel when you're wearing them

      I try to just listen to music or walk away from the conversation if I can
