Billie Eilish Tourette's Syndrome | HOW Does She CONTROL The Tics?!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 лип 2024
- Billie Eilish has been killing it recently with a Vogue magazine cover and new world tours. In her magazine article, she mentioned about how she was abused when she was younger. This hugely impacted her psychologically. This is very interesting considering that we know she has Tourette’s Syndrome. In this video, I go through what Tourette’s Syndrome is, the type of Tics Billie gets and how she controls them.
It takes her a load of planning to keep it under control especially while she’s stressed. That being said, major props to her for keeping up with the tour and active lifestyle while managing her condition. She certainly is an example to many people out there who are finding it difficult to get by with the condition. For anyone watching this video with Tourette’s Syndrome, I wish you health and happiness.
The links to the Essential oil blends that she mentions in the video are below.

If you found this video interesting then check out my House MD Reaction to Three Stories (Top Voted Ep) here: ua-cam.com/video/arCHLU3KdeM/v-deo.html
My older brother passed away from being an alcoholic because my parents always bashed him and yelled at him for having vocal and physical Tourette’s. I tried my very best to get him help but my mom even said “I don’t think it’s that bad he can control it.” And he didn’t think he had Tourette’s but he had severely hurt himself because of how he didn’t understand his tics. Even after his passing I still catch myself watching education videos about Tourette’s and how to help him. I am so happy that you made this video and put it in a way that so many people can understand by relating it to a celebrity.
Oh no. I’m so sorry to hear that. He was definitely failed by your parents. I wished he received helped. Hopefully he has peace now.
Wow, that is absolutely heartbreaking. 😢 I am so sorry for you and your brother. ❤️
So sorry to hear it . You're doing a good thing in his legacy
I'm so sorry
Fuck your parents, that would we so hurtful for him, I have Tourette’s too, I can imagine how much it feels to be abused by your parents because of a mental disorder.
One of the things I love the most about Billie bing famous and having tourettes: she does not have a cursing tic. Why you might think it's important? Cause that's what most people think of when you mention it. You start talking about tourettes and people instantly go "isn't that when people curse a lot?"
No it's not. In fact, only about 1 in 10 people with tourettes having cursing tics. So really, most people with tourettes don't curse. This includes Billie. Since she's so famous it can help people undersrand the condition a bit more.
Very interesting point! Thanks for that contribution. There is a lot of stigma and misunderstanding about so many health conditions and I want to try and help unwrap that!
@@DrSermedMezher No problem. I myself do have Coprolalia (that's what the cursing tic is called). As much as it's part of my condition it just saddens me that that specific part is what tourettes get associated with since it's of course the most obvious and dramatic kinda tic, while a simple blinking tic can be jusr as annoying. Tourettes isn't just one thing. It's a spectrum
I agree! My Tourette’s tics are almost identical to hers and it’s always so hard to explain to people that not all Tourette’s victims have the swearing/hitting tics. It can be so minor as blinking, or a head/neck tic like she experiences.
Billie Eilish is a real hero of mine. She is fearless and talks quite candidly about her efforts to allow herself to keep control of her life and not let
this malady define her. I hope she continues to express herself so magnificently and she inspires some who are overcoming great hurdles to not
despair. I hope her fans are enriched and not her producers or handlers. I hope she can take pride in how much her candor encourages us.
Remember, not too long ago, nobody would have talked about this? She's not alone and because of her, we're not alone either.
Hi Lewis,
Beautifully written and well said. Thank you for sharing that with us. We're certainly in a lucky time when we can see great people standing up for many who have previously not had a voice.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this video.
Thank you for taking the time to comment, it means a lot!
Dr Sermed, honestly thank you for making this video and spreading love and information for people who really need it.
That’s very kind of you, thank you for commenting and welcome to the channel!
Acupuncture really helped with my tics, not just to surpress them but actually go to the root of the problem. They were really bad, now no one would know. Also just letting them out for hours at a time sometimes, without judging myself or the tics, just letting it out. In private of course
Such a good video, very comfortable to watch, your voice is so soothing, and you are respectful, refreshing to see. i don't have tourette's i just became very interested in this topic so thanks for this video!
Hi Varvara,
That’s very kind of you to say and I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Hope to see you around the channel more often and welcome to the community!
Thank you for highlighting why holistic treatments are often not seen as “effective” due to the motives of the pharmaceutical industry. I appreciate the position that puts you in as a doctor and it’s amazing that you shared that in this video. I’ve never heard a doctor say that before. 🙏🏽
Hi Lucie,
Thank you for the comment and compliment. I think my background in medical research gives me a slightly different take on evidence and how it's compiled. Being a doctor isn't just about recommending medications but understanding the whole person and finding the best thing for them, whatever it may be. Sometimes that isn't medication - I hope that helps you gain some insight into my rationale and looking forward to seeing you around the channel more.
Sermed
PS - Your content is excellent, loving the positivity and congratulations on the silver play button! Hoping to get there one day.
Tourettes in the Bible:
"...I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit; 18And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not. 19He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me. 20And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. 21And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. 22And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. 23Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. 24And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. 25When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. 26And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead. 27But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. 28And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out? 29And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting."-Mark 9:17-29
Translation:
A father brought to Jesus his teenage son who has had these symptoms below since he was a child. He:
-throws himself into the fire
-hurts himself
-becomes weaker (pineth away)
-froths from the mouth (epilepsy)
-clenches teeth
-thrown down to the ground (teareth him)
-thrown in the water to drown
Jesus taught the disciples to cast out demons in His (Jesus's) name, but the disciples could not cast the demon out of this boy. That's why Jesus said "how long am I going to be with you?", (because Jesus was going to be nailed on the cross soon), the disciples need to know how to cast demons out before Jesus leaves the world. So Jesus casts the demon out. The demon was strong and was latching onto the boy so much that the boy went into convulsions and finally laid still and appeared like he was dead, but Jesus lifted him up by the hand and he was fine. Then the disciples asked why they couldn't cast the demon out and that's when Jesus tells them that this kind of demon can only come out of a person through praying and fasting (not eating).
Doctors aren't miracle workers, but Jesus is, because Jesus is the Son of God. When Jesus heals people, it's complete, never partial, and certainly never with strings attached. Whomsoever the Son sets free, is free indeed.

I am crying this is so amazing and inspiring. She is amazing wow
10:27 About that, for me the thing that stops the tics is just something that calms me down. It can be anything that basically distracts me. I think it’s something individual for every person. As you said earlier, the tics are caused by anger/stress so it’s logical to get distracted from these tics and calm down from the anger, and then they kind of fade away. I personally just play music/ yt or anything that makes a sound, so I can focus on the lyrics/ what someone’s talking and ‘forget’ that I’m having those. That’s why I don’t think the things that ‘stop the tics’ can be defined any further than ‘something that calms and distracts you’. Tho It’s really just my experience. If you want to ask any questions I will be happy to answer.
Thank you, I notice that my tics go away while playing the guitar...one time I took a video of me playing and you can see me ticking pretty bad but then when I started playing and then for the rest of the video I didn't tic....
Hey! So I have Tourette’s well I think I may I haven’t got diagnosed but I just subbed thank you for informing me!
Glad I could help and will be great to have you around! Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions
I saw a documentary on this poor woman, she had had such violent and frequent ticks all her life, that she went for the surgery. Between the surgery and medication she was actually able to get her ticks down enough to where she was able to get her own home when she was in her 30s
Great video
Thank you Alex! Looking forward to seeing you around here again :)
Having tics taught me how to suppress sneezes and coughs and I have this medicine for it now xiprexa I think
I take a medication that causes my tics but it works so well for what’s is prescribed for I just deal with mine which can be stressful at times but definitely a convo starter lol
I am Speechless there is medicine that can help 😮😯😯😯
Serious? I’m going to call my doctor on Monday for this. It might help me, thank you! I had no idea
@@xjustapersonX I typed in the wrong one it was a shot called invega that's what's been helping me but your doctor may say no
@@xjustapersonX just remember it might work differently for you than it does for me. So I'm sorry if it gets worse
In elementary, I had all sort of weird movements. Motor & vocal. It went away after years. It just went away. I got really busy in life.
So glad to hear about your recovery, thanks for sharing that hear! It is surprisingly common how many people's childhood tics naturally fade with time but for some they are not so fortunate.
Great video! I also have TS and this has given me some insight. Earned a sub :)
Thank you for your comment! Lovely to hear that it helped you and looking forward to seeing you around here again :)
me to honestly my tics have been so bad latley i skipped school liars week due to a migraine my tics gave me
My daughter has TS. She used essential oils a lot when she was little. It really helped her. Meds haven’t worked and the side effects are pretty gnarly. One thing I wish you had talked more about was the disinhibition that comes along with TS. It’s a disorder of neurological disinhibition and doesn’t just involve tics. Behavior, thoughts, and even emotions pop and roll like tics. OCD and ADHD are very common for people with TS. Instead of throwing a bunch of diagnoses at kids, I wish they would use a “type” or “level” system for TS like they have for ADHD and Autism. Some kids just have the vocal and motor tics, others have tics plus anxiety and OCD symptoms, others have tics, anxiety/OCD and ADHD symptoms. It would simplify the diagnostic process, reflect the reality that TS is a spectrum and steer people away from the assumption that normal interventions will be effective.
I have Tourette’s. Mine is not nearly as intense as billies. Unless you were around me for a good length of time, you wouldn’t know I had it if I didn’t tell you. But for me, suppressing feels like holding my breath. I need to breath, and the longer I hold it the deeper the breath I will take when I finally breathe. My tics are just like that. Sometimes when I hold them back, when I do tic, I may have a small tic attack especially when I was younger. I’ve gotten really good as suppressing them with age and I’ve even somewhat grown out of them. They aren’t completely gone, but not nearly as much as when I was a child. When I was a kid, my tic was a throat noise. Now it’s a nose wrinkle. Rarely sometimes I’ll need to make an “arrrrrr” sound.
One thing I find harmful for me is watching all these tic tokers or you tubers with intense Tourette’s because I find myself mimicking their Tourette’s sometimes just in that moment. I feel like if I watched a lot of it my Tourette’s could get worse. Which makes me believe that those Tourette’s camps people send their kids to is a horrible idea. Honestly The less I think about it, the better it is.
If I smoke weed, it has to be indica, sativa will give me anxiety and make my tics worse. Cbd does not give me anxiety and is relaxing, but not very potent so it only helps a little bit. But I also haven’t tried any high quality cbd.
I also have ADD and depression. My doc told me their are some connections with Tourette’s and ADD. So when I was a kid I was on Zoloft and Ritalin and eventually switched to Zoloft and adderall in my teens. They really did help and I wish I could get back on them. But after suffering from addiction in my mid-late 20s, I can’t get a doc to prescribe me any medication. I’m sober almost 2 years. After addiction it’s hard to get back into the swing of normal life especially with add and depression. Most days I can’t remember simple things like brushing my teeth or eating. I’ll go all day without eating till I get tunnel vision and nearly pass out. I can’t stay on a schedule. Mental health is the shits.
I rarely smoke weed but when I do it makes my tics so much worse
When i was younger i was diagnosed with tourette's. I recognise the pattern of developing and disappearing/hiding/controlling of the tics you're talking about. Also, if i recall correctly i was offered to go to some kind of support group for people with tourette but on the other hand they said that a big downside to that is that people will start copying each other's tics. I laughed when i read that you do the nose wrinkle. I had that one too. Still do sometimes. And now that i read about it i feel the urge growing.
Thanks for this video. My 14 year old boy has just been diagnosed with Tourettes. I'm going to try the essential oils in addition to the therapy being set up.
Thank you for your comment and glad you found the video useful!
I hope they work for you and that the video showed that you can thrive with Tourette’s :)

@@DrSermedMezher My daughter is 13 and has Tourette syndrome. The prescription prescribed by the doctor did not help, and at my own peril and risk, I began to give her one pipette of oil with 10% CBD. After the first dose, vocal tics and grimaces disappeared. I just couldn't believe it, but it's a fact.
I notice it comes and goes with Billie.
It is not uncommon for people to automatically suppress in certain situations. This can include social situations, performances, anything requiring focus etc. I have tics induced by a drug. There's a condition called Tardive Tourettism, it's indistinguishable from Tourettes and my tics behave this way. I'm sure the oils are soothing and may lower the stress triggering tics. Lavender may especially help stress though it likely doesn't directly impact tics. Do what works for you.
It’s just change of mindset I’ve started having tic’s myself there hasn’t been an official diagnosis yet but for the time that I’ve had these tic’s and people laugh me I laugh with em laugh at yourself and your flaws and you’ll be good to go yah it’s a serious problem serious shit shouldn’t be taken seriously that just causes anger and chaos
1:41 You're probably wrong there. The basic mechanism of Tourette's is a permeativity of the Basal Ganglia, where impulses cannot be regulated the ordinary way. I control it with a meditative "concentration." I suspect most Tourette's people can control it pretty well, and that they are unaware that they have Tourette's. I understood it first in my late 50:ies. Secondly: I'm a programming teacher. I usually don't tic in public. I use to explain to people that I have Tourette's only if it is necessary, such as if they have ADHD or are Autists, (or treat with such people) and need to know that they aren't alone and it is possible to develop strategies to overwin their situation. I'm kind of a Tourette's person, but that's only a minor part of what I am. So of course Billie Eilish isn't very open with it: she isn't Tourette's, she is herself.
For some reason when I watch tourret videos i kind of get "tics" randomly until the video ends. I'm not even controlling them to happen but they happen anyways.
Yes because it's a nervous mimicking behavior. 90 percent of these tick tok tourettes girls are just mimicking and getting validation for it until it becomes habitual. 100 percent billie ellish fits in this category.
you hit the nail right on the head when you compared it to an itch. i wouldnt say nose itch and a sneeze to relieve it, but its just like an itch the builds, and builds, and builds... but i disagree with you when you said it was involuntary. tourettes ticks are %100 voluntary, its just kinda like torturing yourself to not scratch that itch
Certain smells have triggered my tics to become worse in the past. For example, cigarette smoke, air fresheners, or someone's strong nasty perfume/cologne
I've also noticed this as well...I think it can be anything you associate with stress...like if you don't like certain smells then it stresses you out and then you tic. I'm an adult in my 30's and my tics never went away. My parent's still won't admit anything is wrong with me but have told me when I was little kid the doctors put me in a room alone to observe me and said " oh he blinks different and moves his nose a lot but will grow out of it" when I tell them I have tourette syndrome they just stay quiet. I've always been hyper sensitive to other people ticking too. One time, one of my friends told me that everybody thought I was a very serious and intense dude, but really I was just trying to control it and hide it the whole time I was with them...none of them stayed my friends and now that I'm older I just except that nobody sticks around for long when you have this type of condition.
Hi Dr, my daughter has tc earlier vocally tics now it started to her hands and legs. Please advice me.
Please see a clinician! I won't be able to treat you without doing a proper assessment. Best of luck!
I suffer from tics and I'm also on MMJ patient I have found that combining essential oils as well as taking 50 mg of Benadryl or any type of muscle relaxer as well as either doing an inhalation or doing an edible usually gives me about almost close to 4 to 5 hours of 98% of my normalcy. Before completely having another tic or having a complete attack. And as for your question ask for me as an individual MMJ does help but not by itself it definitely requires you to take it in different ways I have to inhale it, take it orally and I still combine it with Benadryl and I also take multivitamins to help like magnesium.
I use essential oils for my daughter, but it is a mix of oils that helps her a lot, I used rollers so she can have it on her purse , and mixed extra Virgil oil but u can use sweet almond as well , and the oils that I used are vetiver 2 drops , cedar wood 2 drops , lavender 2 drops , lemon 2 drops , frankincense 5 drops …. And it works really good . U can also applied the oils on ur wrist so u can smell it easily.
@@yanetharambula3633This is the combination of oils we use for my daughter.
Am a guy with tourettes i don't get tics when am doing my work am an animator so while am animating all my tics go away so when iam having a bad tics i just start animating I know it's weird but that helps me
As you get older you learn to suppress them but they come out when alone when she has alone time
Which oils is it? Lavender??? Which others? My daughter who is 6 is suffering with ts 😞
The ones people mainly cite as working the best are lavender blends like this one: amzn.to/3Z5Er3L
Let me know your experiences with it once you purchase!
I know I have some form of tics they only really get triggered if I see someone do it hear someone talk about or I’m really nervous or upset sad etc really rare to have other then that for me
My 11 year old son was diagnosed with TS 2 years ago. It wasn't until this month that his verbal and physical tics overwhelmed him emotionally. I was desperate and began doing heavy research on alternatives. I found an alternative that in non-invasive and I'm surprised more people don't spread the word of this. It doesn't eliminate TS but it controls majority of the urges while administered. It's a mouth guard that relieves the pressure to the central nervous system that regulate movement. I've found a few doctors that record the before and after and shared them on youtube. I did have to do a bit of digging for this but as you mentioned, if the pharmaceutical companies aren't pouring money into research, what's the cost benefit. Horrible contribution to society and humanity. It's a similar concept to TMJ. My son has his appointment in a few days for his fitting with a local doctor. I HIGHLY urge anyone to keep hope up that there is alternatives that don't require surgery. Here's a like to the video: ua-cam.com/video/PXGd-v4TAO8/v-deo.html
It's weird that when I smoked cannabis my ticks slowed down but now I don't touch it they came back tenfold so I'm thinking about getting back into it
Tourettes and tics are linked with anxiety as well. Essential oils may help her to relax therefore calming the tics. I use a lavender heat pack. It really is just dependant on the person. Sadly the petition to get tourettes researched more got to 50,000 not 100,000 signatures in uk meaning it's not going to get looked into for sometime. Leaving children and adults helpless with the disorder as nobody has any guidance.
Lol essential oils are literally known to cause allergy induced TS.
I tic when I drive and when I first come home at the end of a day. They go away for a while and then come back. The more stress the more tics. I don’t have Tourette’s.
What if you combine the two ideas essential oils and cannabis, what pacifically is not allowed in the UK is it a THC levels in cannabis or is it CBD levels in cannabis or both?
Wow I never knew
Strange that he describes the tics as impulses that I am being compelled to perform these motions because for me they are completely involuntary and I would describe them as my body having a mind of its own I am literally fighting my body to get it to do what I want it to do. Eventually I have to give up and let the attacks run there course. Hopefully by then I’m somewhere private where I’m not being bombarded with questions since I’m unable to respond during an attack.
As a former church choir singer (and a Tourette's person), I must emphasize: when you sing, you *_never_* tic or stutter. When you run or do something athletic, you *_never_* tic! I mostly tic when I hear about Tourette's, hear about someone having Tourette's or when I'm stressed or annoyed. I have a coprolalia tic when I'm alone once or twice a week.
Have you ever watched Lewis Capaldi? His tics become so overwhelming that he has had to stop concerts mid-song. My daughter used to sing and she never ticked when singing, but some do.
I have tourettes but not too dangerous level so am happy I can keep this a secret from everybody . I take atleast half an hour to 1hr as me time so I can let out tics when i have to be in a meetings or in office setting it will last for couple hours I let out my tics but my tics are not crazy so I can easily cover that up . Then when I feel this tics are getting out of hand I go to washroom let out my tics and join the grp
Thank you for sharing what is a very interesting story! Sorry you have to keep it hidden but I’m glad that you’re coping with it well :)
@@DrSermedMezher yes most of the time I do some times my frnds think am crazy because tics some time come out of no where without indication I'll become a laughing stock for a few minutes. Some times when I get a erge to tic so bad I start to hum some random song and do the tic when am around my friends or colleagues and I cover that by saying this dance move will be better in that so or some thing jibirish divert there focus from tic to weird antics of mine 😂😂. But sometimes I feel I wanna be normal but am thankful for God because my tics are mostly eyes twitching, head bobbing, head and chin jerking,face expression changes and I have this weird verbal tic that requires me to count till 3 , I go like 1 - 2 I can't say 3 but until I say 3 I can't breath it's weird to even explain it lol that tic is very annoying for me I can't say 3 and I'll be running out of breath . Stupid tics
@@This_Guy- That is so interesting to hear how you try to mask the tics, very smart to be honest! Also interesting about the counting tics and the breathing. It's so useful for me and the other people here to hear your experiences
@@DrSermedMezher am glad i could be useful 😁
Cbd oil works for my walking dealing with MS.
That's very interesting, thank you for sharing!
Maybe the smell distracts not just the mind but the brain during? That's really interesting
Tourette is linked with ADHD, Social Anxiety, OCD, and even more
I Have Tourette
I have tics, but I don’t have tourettes, but i jerk my neck when i feel like a tingle like a tickle sort of spreading through my body, so i feel like i have to jerk to make the tingle go away.

@@tatianarespected5939 yeah, my ADHD and anxiety helped me get my diagnosis of Tourette’s

Hi Sir,
Is this essential oil similar to CBD oil?
Great question,
The similarity that they share is that they are both oils and people claim that both have helped with their tics. The ingredients that are in them are different, though.
CBD oils are usually either ingested or dropped under the tongue to absorb but essential oils tend to be used for their pleasant smells.
I hope that helps!
@@DrSermedMezher Thanks you sir!
@@Syazmin93 My pleasure! Let me know if you have any other questions or suggestions
I can hold it as well but why?
not the essential oils

Me too my friend.
Through heavy drinking, usually.
I take abilify for mine
Tics are involuntary.
Surely it's because they help her relax. If essential oils don't have that effect for you it is unlikely to help.
Hi Fionna,
That could be the reason for sure - I guess it's tough to know how it works without any research coming through on it.
The way I see it though is if it doesn't harm you and it has even a small chance of helping then why not try it?
i surpress mine all the time
Hi Jacky,
In some cases I certainly understand why that would be. Do you have a small flurry of tics close together after suppressing for a while?
Thank you for sharing and great to have you on the channel
So id her Tourettes tics are real ? Not acting ?
It certainly seems that way! Did you think she was acting? If so, why?
Why would she be faking? She's had it since she was a child and she's not the type of person who would fake something like this

Could you elaborate? Thanks for your comment!
Essential oils not being mentioned in the medical field is one thing, but could Billie profit off of this i wonder? 🧐…🤷♂️
NO! She's not doing marketing about a product 😂 she is just talking about her life and herself bc interviewers asked her that… and overall if in the future she will decide she will do something about it WHO CARES?! if she will do something g about to help people through her experience to raise awareness in the world (bc too many people are ignorant about this) and help other people with the same problem by exploiting her fame to do something important what would be the problem? but people like you are always so toxic even in real life ? 🤦🏻♀️
She is talking about herself… now she can't say anything because she might “profit” and even if she was??! you know that all the money she has she doesn't use… ? do you know this artist?! she has a dream car that she was given from her team when she was 16 which has been wrecked for years and she hasn't bought a new one .. she buys charity clothes, she invests most of her money to help others and the world .. her family same thing they are always dressed the same and often in unsigned things .. the dress signed are often given away by brands to her .. they did so much for environment, animals Etc .. they don’t give a f*ck about money.. enough people. WHO CARES!
No, she doesn’t profit from it
Isn't it harmful to stop it
To stop the tics? Not at all. People with Tourette's struggle to stop them, however, as they get a rising feeling like that we get when we want to sneeze. The longer they hold the tic for, the bigger the urge to perform the tic gets. Then as soon as its done, the feeling goes away temporarily
@@DrSermedMezher As someone who as TS it can be. Holding it back can cause the tic to get stronger so if it is your neck bending one it will happen more frequent and be more painful. This has caused me to be prescribed a neck brace.
@@DrSermedMezher wrong. I mean no offense but it's pretty dangerous to spread that kind of wrong information. Suppressing tics can lead to tic attacks. The longer you suppress the more violent the attacks can be. Speaking from experience..
@@kristinejensen3717 Hi Kristine,
Thanks for commenting and sharing your experience.
Tic suppression is actually a focus of many of the psycho therapies around Tourette’s and tic disorders which aim to help the tics reduce in frequency long term. Yes, it can increase the frequency short term but generally this doesn’t cause significant harm. Each case is unique of course and you would have to consult your doctor before making any changes to your condition.
For more information please see NHS website here: www.nhs.uk/conditions/tics/treatment/
@@DrSermedMezher How does it not cause more harm. Holding back makes us get tic attacks and even more frequent. If I hit myself and suppress, now I have a tic attack and beat the crap out of myself. I tense up so much my toes and fingers get locked and causes extreme pain.
You are talking like you know how it really feels. Maybe listen to the community and stop telling people to suppress. This video is a little miss leading and it bothers people who suffer with TS when people talk as if they really know how it is. Not yelling at you but please don't try to say it doesn't harm to suppress. Because it does and the problem is not knowing how to suppress but how society reacts to our condition.
You can't handle the tooth.
You're right, that is a cavity in my abilities
I mean no offense. I'm having issues these days. I've got issues with Tourettes and narcolepsy. I wish I was kidding. Mostly narcolepsy, but...
@@snakewhitcher4189 sorry to hear that. What has your doctor’s opinion been on this?
@@DrSermedMezher I've been avoiding medical attention for a few years. I fell on my head and broke some stuff a couple decades ago. I tend to say shit out loud that I would normally keep to myself the last 4 years.
Mind your own goddamned business. Just because the woman is famous doesn't give you the right to stick your nose into her affairs.
Thank you for sharing your beliefs so strongly, I appreciate anyone who can do that
It is Fake
Doesn’t seem fake to me.
She's been faking it since she was a kid then. Hers is a more extreme case that every once in a while looks more like seizures and last longer.
It’s not fake.
shes lying. thats how
What makes you say that?
@@DrSermedMezher its that generation of needing sympathy and making up lies for social media.
she's addressed her tourette's years ago before tics became "popular" online, the reason she even had to say anything in the first place being because people noticed it in interviews. highly doubt she's faking
@@mrbeast9098 She was diagnosed when she was 6 jears old(2007) ,6 jear olds dont fake it
@@avocado2567 not buying it
I have OCD, ASD and I also suspect that I have some mild Tourettes since it's a common comorbidity. I live in a "legal" state, but also have a marijuana medical card because it really helps with my ASD and OCD... Along with taking my medication. I don't like to take things like Xanax, so when my OCD is really bad, I just smoke a lot of weed lol.
Also, "smelling" things is one of my stims. I really love to smell things, so I think I can understand why it calms her down. It definitely calms me down and there have been studies done on things like lavender where it does scientifically cause people to relax. But for me, because it's a stim it does tend to soothe me.
