What To Do If Get Numbness In Lips And Twitching In Face If Am Upset?

Lately when I even get remotely upset, mad or in front of people my lips get numb and I have twitching in my face. At first I thought it was anxiety, but it also happens when no one is around. If I get a little upset, I get this big rush where my lips feel numb and so does my cheeks.
