  • People with Tourette's syndrome face a lot of assumptions about what it's like to live with their condition. For instance, there's a common belief that everyone with Tourette's swears, but this isn't the case.
    Here, a group of men and women chat about the questions and observations they encounter about their Tourette's - and are happy to clear up any misconceptions about it that might be out there.

    I had a friend with Tourette’s in high school and sometimes after yelling something like “DOUCHEBAG” or “POSER” everyone would just giggle and forget about it as usual, but then he would lean over and whisper “That wasn’t a tic”.
    I would lose my shit, cus it was usually directed at someone that annoyed everyone or was a jerk. I still really don’t know if he was kidding or not.

      For my tattoos, I just told my artist beforehand "I have tourettes, I will let you know if I need you to pause." It wound up being okay because during the tattooing, my focus was on the tattoo and the pain, so I wasn't ticking too much, and when I did I was able to let them out when he had to get more ink or change colors. It worked out pretty well.

      If you went to a furry convention there would be like a 40% chance of you being correct for some ungodly reason. (I have no clue why those furries don't think they'd be considered degenerates and gassed, but there's at the very least an EXTREMELY vocal minority of Nazifurs, to the extent that the community had to bother to coin the phrase Nazifur to describe them.)

    Also, I just want to say. Not all tics are visible. Some are small twitches or clenching certain muscles. Just because someone’s tics don’t involve them moving a lot, doesn’t mean they’re faking. Just thought that should be said.

      How would you go about going on a flight like that? I mean, I think the best option would be to inform personnel and crew members of your syndrome. But that doesn't really help the passengers around you. Are you allowed to fly with that kind of disorder? I probably wouldn't fly if I had that even if I could. Damn, now that I think about it, it severely limits your life. Even a job, one would have to work from home or something.

    The best way to describe what a tic feels like to a person without one is by asking them to try not to blink. The pressure build up is the same sensation i get if i try to hold it in.

  • @abby3373
    @abby3373 2 роки тому +7

    I knew a girl with tics she was in therapy because she refused to accept her own tics. She had more motion driven ones and swear words. Some of her included randomly swimming her arms out , head banging, sometimes for actions when she was stressed about something her legs would also kick out. She ended up there because she was a perfectionist meaning her not having ability to control her tics upset her greatly because no matter what she had to tic. So for someone like her she ended hurting herself by suppressing them to much and to often. I hope wherever she is that she accepts herself like we accepted her. She was so good at drawing portraits of people she made a snack time killing for portraits.

    My dad told me about his friend in high school with Tourette’s. His tick was craning his head to the side and making a little “ehhh” sound. It wasn’t always super bad, but it got worse when he was nervous. My dad said his biggest mistake was going ding dong ditching with him. They hid in the bushes, and the whole while making noises and revealing their location. But the guy is now a teacher, cool enough

    I wish they'd asked about stress and contentment - when I'm stressed my tics are way heavier and when I'm content I'm much more still. For me personally there is a direct correlation between ticcing and stress. There's a difference between relaxing and contentment! I've never and don't believe I'll ever not have my Tourette's, but like anything when you add stress or mental health problems into the mix the symptoms can be more severe. Would be nice to see someone talk about this, cause if I experience it, I can't be the only one.

I've always felt like people think I'm weird because of it but seeing how many people i can relate to in this video & in the comments makes my heart so warm!! Makes me feel a lot less alone & a lot more comfortable with having tics
