I am 15 and have been flapping my hands on my head while making a weird face uncontrolably for my whole life. I do it when excited. In public and in private sometimes people tease me but I don't care. I flap my hands about 100+ times a day I dont even know when I do it. I also rock back and forth a few times a day. I rock for a long time (like hours on end while I'm playing video games or watching tv). People have told me I walk weird or to fast and I get teased a lot weather it is at church or at a get together I am always the odd ball. Does anyone else feel the same way?

I got teased and bullied all the time as a kid and teenager. Life was hell back then. :-( I don't often get teased now, but then I am decades older, I live alone, due to health problems I don't get out much, so I don't have to deal much with people any more. My life is much less stressful since I started living alone several years ago. Living with relatives who bullied me because they thought that it would somehow make me normal was rough.

I don't have any real advice on how to deal with teasers and bullyers. I guess you should just try to avoid them, because nasty people seem to like being nasty, so you can't make them stop. Sorry, but that's the best I can do.

I would never want to be a teenager again.
