[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 366092, member: 2423"] Did the movements start soon after he started Concerta or after a dose increase? Stimulants like Concerta can exacerbate anxiety and underlying tics. It happened to my son, who has a tic disorder. My son's tics, however, come and go regardless of whether he's on a stimulant or not. They do tend to kick up when he's more anxious. He also used to chew his shirt collars, and that was not a tic, but a nervous habit. It stopped on its own. [/QUOTE]
