Your movements, if repetetive, would seem like dyskenesia. If you are having more infrequent spasms, its more likely to be dystonia. Your mouth movements hint of Tardive Dyskenesia which is often permanent. Treatment strategies include discontinuation of the SSRI; dosage reduction; or the addition of a benzodiazepine, beta-blocker, or anticholinergic agent(artane, cogentin).
Nefazadone is a poor choice for panic disorder as it inhibits the reuptake of norepenephrine significantly. More norepenephrine=greater panic symptoms.
SSRIs are best for panic disorder. I would recommend Viibryd, which has the added benefite of 5ht1a agonism which helps with anxiety.
