Psychotherapy and Mental Health questions

ADD, Tourettes or both?

Dr. I am 64 Years old, and currently taking Prozac prescribed by the VA for depression. (I did not know I was depressed) For many years I have have whistled, hummed, and make a hissing sound almost continually. It is driving all around me nuts, including me. I can\'t read normally. I start a paragraph, then skip around the article then have to begin reading the same article again. This happens several times in one article, a book is out of the question now. I jiggle my feet when sitting. I also don\'t like socalizing much anymore. I really would anything to stop the humming, whistling, ect. Any help at all will be deeply appreciated...
