I know anxiety sufferers get things like twitches and quick jerks, which I do have. But lately I have had these weird jerks that seem uncontrolled (or maybe its subconscious?) and repetitive.

Is there a difference between a quick jerk and repetitive jerks? The repetitive part is what freaks me out.

Today I was eating lunch at a restaurant, I looked up at the TV but my head decided to jerk up and down a couple of times. It could have been a subconscious thing, but I didn't feel in control.

Last night at work I was cutting some food (im a chef) and it felt like my hand/arm got stuck in the one spot and was cutting at nothing for a second.

Same thing the other day when I tried to unlock the door at work, I kept missing the key hole while trying to put the key in, I kept hitting the key pad without actually putting it in. I had to stop for a few seconds, take deep breathe, then slowly put key in the key hole.
