Tics and Twitches

We all have moments when we feel our muscles are "doing their own thing":  feeling weak in the knees, or having a random spasm or twitch somewhere in our body.  Things get more serious when these twitches are frequent and uncontrollable.  Hallmarks of a tic are that it can be temporarily suppressed, but then "erupts" in an uncontrollable twitch.  Sometimes they are even verbal, such as in Tourette's syndrome.  Thankfully, treatments are available.
