So I’ve been relentlessly scat singing. It started in the car any time the radio was off (sometimes for half an hour or more without stopping. Just freestyle jazz noodling, only stopping to breathe). At this point it should be noted that I’m not proficient in scat singing, and had no interest in it prior to a couple of years ago.
Recently, however, it’s started happening at any time. My family is noticeably irritated by it, but it just sort of comes out. It’s getting pretty frequent. I’m seriously considering joining a band as a jazz singer, because while I’m not good at it now, i get a lot of practice and could be really good in a couple of months.
Ive been diagnosed with ADHD and my country of residence still uses the icd10 for diagnosis so I wouldn’t be diagnosed with anything else anyway. Could this be a complex tic ? Could I have undiagnosed tourettes?
Thoughts?

Thank you for the pedantry, but both tourette syndrome, tourette’s syndrom, TS, and Tourette’s are used. I forget apostrophes habitually because I’m dyslexic.
