When I am around my friends I punch them at complete random and they ask me why I do it. I tell them I dont know why. To me it feels like a reflex or instinct. Does any1 know why this happens?

I'm not mad when it happens. Some of the time its after a dis or a joke. But sometimes it isnt

Hmmm... I have heard of something liek this before but I forgot what its called. The cases I have seen are far more serious than yours. It like these people did certain actions as pure reflex as though they are compelled to do so. I think Oprah once interviewed a teacher who had that sickness. He started making chicken sounds in the middle of conversation and he just cant control it. Otherwise, he is normal in every sense. Not sure whether you have the same sickness but maybe you might wanna get yourself checked. It doesnt sound like yours is a bad case but it is no doubt puzzling. Im really interested in the outcome, update us will ya? :)
Edit: Oh yes! Thats what I was referring to! Thanks mamabear1! Its Tourettes Syndrome.

Yes you have a problem, unless you are angry at your friends you shouldn't be throwing punches at them. If it feels like a reflex that you can't control, see a doctor. Have them check you out for Tourettes Syndrome.

if you are serious, you may actually have some sort of disorder...there are a million disorders out there sounds like a nervous habbit if you ask me. if you asked this question because you thought it was funny, you have little to no sense of humor and need to back away from the computer

i had a problem slapping people when i was 7th 8th and 9th grade. i eventually grow out of it but now that you r aware of what you r doing then try to stop yourself but you do it. and good luck it is not easy but you need to do it.

If this is a serious question then I advise you to seek professional help.
