Videos that make fun of Tourette's Syndrome...Are ok?
Someone e-mailed me saying that they didn't have friends because they had Tourette's. My answer to that might be a bit harsh, but try to be open to...
I have a slightly different POV. For me, Tourette's DOES include random, loud extremely embarassing swearing. I hit myself, I jerk so much I can barely walk at times. And idiots at school love to laugh when they think I can't hear. But they're just that, idiots. I do not exactly appreciate p...

Actually, my tics persist to be severe. Not all the time like it was, but still, almost every day, I have periods during which walking, sometimes even writing or sitting, is difficult or painful due to the jerking movements, which happen from every several minutes to every few seconds.

@Corina13017
As to why THAT word...there is no reason. People with my disorder do not choose the words we end up saying in tics; it just happens. Most people don't have swearing or socially derogatory tics, but I do. I've been blessed, though, with great friends who don't mind, who understand...

@tishafish I've learned ways to calm my body down, learned its quirks, and use those to my advantage: when I'm playing music or absorbed in something, it slows down, sometimes a lot. I can also do deep breathing/meditation/hypnosis to almost completely stop my tics. They also tend to be a lot b...

For anyone who saw it, someone posted some pretty ignorant things here. i removed the comments, and for the record, Tourette does NOT AFFECT INTELEGENCE.
Yeah, believe it or not, I cannot help the things my body does, and, as an update, I am very happy to say that I am attending regular school,...

TheeBonis, don't give up. There are treatments, that can make enormous changes to one's functionality. Also, keep in mind that all cases of TD are not permanent.

This is so much like my pug/beagle hybrid puppy! Although you should hear her when she's mad...then she grumbles even more than Hunter is....it's so weird, in a cute way.

@sweYoda2
For your information, there are many people with Tourette syndrome who go on to have stable jobs.
Take Brad Cohen for instance, a guy who to this day, barks and twitches at the drop of a hat. Everybody thought he was nuts when he went to college to be a teacher.
Look at him now. He...

It's awesome that you found a medication that seems to be helping.
I took it on and off for my Tourette's, when I was in a sort of tic episode to calm down...and then it just put me to sleep, but had to stop it when I started to have dyskinesia...not fun...

I have tics to hit, kick, bite and scratch myself and bang my head.
And I also have coprolalia, though I use a special mouthpiece, a "Sylencer" to muffle it, called a court stenographer's mask.

Tourettes after all ;(
This is an update on my movement disorder. I realize now that it is Tourette syndrome.
Sorry if you find I rambled on too much.
Whenever I focus on something, (other than my tics, lol) my tics decrease significantly. Which is pretty merciful, as I'm usually engaged in something, be it cartoons or Dr Who or reading about neurosurgery (I got kind of obsessed with Deep Brain Stimulation for a while, it being about the onl...
