    A non-word that is often accidentally derived from the word compulsion (which is in turn authentically derived from the word compel, or compelled). This phenomenon might possibly be more common among fans of [Robert] [Jordans] [Wheel of Time] series.

      Well you see - it is very similar to the act of convulsing, but not. Convulsing is when one is [foaming at the mouth] like a rapid [beast of nature] whilst shaking uncontrollably and becoming partially blind. [COMPULSE], however, is the very simple act of moving ones body when you do not know what else to do. This very real word can occur while dancing, blacking out or an unconscious habit when one feels extremely awkward.
