Talking About Tourettes Syndrome

PLEASE READ IF YOU THINK I'M FAKING
A few people in my math class think I'm a fake and that really upset me. I don't yell in math because it's first period; right after I take my medication. And I do do a lot of motion tics, but I sit in the back and there don't care to look back at me. There are a few things I forgot to say. One thing is that tourette's is usually worse during puberty and that we can't control the things we do. This is me on a particularly bad day. Also, tourette's syndrome awareness month is May 15- June 15! Thanks for watching. (By the way, I got the definition of neurobiological wrong, oops!)

I dont have TS but when I was little I had eppilepsy and it diagnosed me with slight autism, so I know how difficult things can be. I bite and twitch my fingers without realizing it and I make weird faces without knowing it...I get made fun of at school all the time and it really does hurt me. and I have OCD about germs. To see that theres someone who understands and is brave and put a video up makes me happy. Theres alot of kids/teens who dont understand TS or OCD or ADHD and etc and I hope th

Oh, and I went through a stage where I made myself poke everyone that passed me.

I have OCD. I won't eat certain things if they are touching, I am the pickiest person ever, I am a perfectionist. I can be very obsessive over my compulsiveness.

I was diagnosed with it when I was 7. It was severe and it annoyed people in my class and my grades which had always been great started dropping. I took a medication for a year and then my ticks started dissapearing and my grades got better.
