I've made phenomenal progress with my anxiety issues over the decades, but one thing has gotten worse, and I'm not sure what to call it. If I start a train of thought, and I suddenly remember something traumatic or embarrassing or unpleasant, I start to feel bad and I start to say things out loud. When I say the things, it seems to 'release pressure' so that it's easier for me to stop thinking about what upset me. It's usually something like 'no' or 'amen', although it cycles and it's been worse things like 'I hate myself' or 'I want to die'. It's annoying enough when I do it by myself, but I've started doing it with my husband or child around, and it worries me to know he's hearing me say these things. Is this actually a kind of tic? If not, what is it? Does anyone else do this?
