Does Billie Joe Armstrong (of Green Day) have an anxiety disorder? I heard he had panic attacks more on stage when he was younger like in the 90's. I've seen performaces and he did twitch his head a lot, does the excitement of the concert tend to make his anxiety disorder worst, and he gets excited and panics? I've haven't seen him do it in recent concerts (Bullet In A Bible, live in the Super Dome-I was there) or was it just his singing style when he was into the music? I know the disorder lead him to write Basket Case, but is that what the twitching was back then? Did he not take meds and he does now? This question has been bugging me so I thought, hell might as well ask on Yahoo! Anwsers.

But Billie has been doing this forever, 16 years! He might of been twitchin cuz I popped out of no where and I think I scare the sh!t out of Tre and Billie. It's a long story, but I met them got hugs & an autograph. Yes I scared my favoritie singer/guitarist/frontman, oops. But he was nice, but looked SOOO oldm but he's porbably gunna be like macjagger or whatever and wear shiney close and keep then and when he's 60 he's gunna think he's 34, oh well. But he was awesome when I met him, The story is I got on the field when U2 and Green Day performaned and Iingered behind when they were done, and they got off the little stage and I popped like right infront of he and tre' it was funny, I startled him. He said something like "don't do that again or you'll send me to the hospital."
