If you got cured completely of your tourettes would you still be the same person?

Does your tourettes impact the your personality?

[TrystanSeven]

When you have your ticks, does it start up as a tension in your throat or muscles? I tend to get that quite often, and had trouble with ticks when I was younger but I've seemed to have gotten over them lately, wondering if I should worry about them randomly coming back stronger.

I like your theory about why people with Tourettes use curse words. It makes perfect sense! Thanks for posting vids Guy!

You might have already answered this(still going through your videos), but how do you go to sleep? Have you tried any sort of meditation or deep sleeping to help offset the tourettes?

[wtf1337sauce]

I'm thinking the swear words could act as a stronger relief to the ticks, as in when you tick, it's something you're trying to let out. The swear words provide a stronger tick without raising your voice or saying more during the tick. English swears are meant to sound hard and short, having powerful consonants in them to add emphasis. It would be interesting to see if someone speaking in another language who has tourettes would choose swears or powerful yet simple words in their ticks.

Guy, in one of your videos you mentioned that you tend to link any conversation to another...as in the paranormal. Do you think that an alternative way of treatment, hypnosis for example, would benefit you? (along the paranormal aspect) Have you ever participated in a PLR?

[DeInnerlijkeMens]

You already answered why you swear. But might it not have started when the tics overwhelmed you unexpectedly and that from than onwards you created the habit to say to the tics: fuck off?...

in ''ask Guy anything 2'', did you notice that the strings of beads on the wall behind you make you look like you have devil horns?

I should have watched this video before I asked you the question about the use of curse on another one of your videos. I like your answer. PS Please still consider doing Little Lion Man by Mumford and Sons for Karaoke.
