  • Ellen Meyers, M.S., M.Ed., Tourette Association Education Committee member, discusses an interactive exercise which has been proven to sensitize individuals to the difficulties students face on a daily basis. A 4 minute clip from the Emmy winning “I Have Tourette's but Tourette's Doesn't Have Me” in which students discuss their experience living with TS symptoms provides first-hand knowledge of how symptoms impact their lives.
    This clip was taken from the DVD "Tourette Syndrome in the Classroom, School and Community" which is available through the Tourette Association. Funding for this DVD, “Tourette Syndrome in the Classroom, School and Community” was made possible by the cooperative agreement award number 1U38DD000727-01 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the presentation was generously supported by the Quantum Foundation, Palm Beach County, FL.

    I have OCD, ADHD, and Tourette syndrome and trust me I couldn't explain how hard it is just to read a text. I wish I could just read a book without having to be in constant fighting against my own Natural Instincts.

      @@theo_is_hiddled8880 I so wish this wasn't the case for you! If you ever need to talk there are great support groups on Facebook! You can search Tourette Syndrome support and they will pop up. If you feel like you have Tourettes the best thing to do in my opinion would be to go to the doctor if that's an option for you. I also have quite a few videos uploaded on here they might help. ♥️🙏🏼

    Fantastic video and exercise to do with teachers! Sometimes it is very hard for others to understand what it feels like to have TS and how much it can interfere with everyday activities. This activity can begin to give others just a little bit of insight as to what it could feel like to those who have TS. It is a daily struggle for most. Thank you!

    Entering(submersion 3 times with a certain prayer and crossing yourself)in water springs of orthodox saints(which are near or in monasteries)give very much power and sureness to people with depression, panic attacks, Tourette sindrom, schizofrenia and other soul illnesses before getting to the eucharisty that heals all soul illnesses. There are some springs of mother of God Maria that also heal all soul illnesses. Spring at the Monastery of st. Paraskevi at Tempi in Greece is one of many springs of saints in Greece and in Balkans. If you have chronic fatigue it is from masturbating, watching pornography, hate etc. 99% of all illnesses are from soul. Soul illnesses can be enherited or from sins. If you can not go to the church because of the illness you can call the priest to your home to give you eucharisty if you are baptised orthodox. If you can not go to a spring of orthodox saint you can buy sainted water and pour it on your self or sainted oil and apply a little on your fronthead.
    If you have diseases, bad luck, impotence, you can only have a discussion with the same person, etc. it can be from witch spellings. In the Zlătari church in Bucharest, every Wednesday at 17.00 it is read the akathist to St. Cyprian and st. Justin against charms and all demons. This akathist can be ordered at any other Orthodox church if you are baptized Orthodox.You must write your name and give it to the person receives the sheets, it is usually at the entrance to the church.
