75% of those living with the Tourette’s say they feel compelled to hide it for fear of stigma and discrimination. Some explain this as “I am in pain, so you can relax”, do you relate? Do you feel a need to suppress? What do you think can improve things?

Involuntary tics cause constant pain, but over 50% of people living with the condition have to wait more than a year to see a specialist. And when they do, 60% of patients are diagnosed and discharged in the same appointment, with no ongoing care. We need better access to medical provisions for those with TS.

As far as medical conditions go, people often perceive it to be fairly mild, mostly because they don’t understand the symptoms - or the often devastating daily impact.

    Stay out of Belmont, New Hampshire, Belmont, New Hampshire first responders will try to take your life if you present with Tourette’s syndrome. They tried to take my life and have done nothing but lie about their actions, Belmont New Hampshire is not safe for anyone with a disability like Tourette’s syndrome, they will try and take your life , and then deny they ever touched you

    First responders in Belmont, New Hampshire are extremely dangerous, they will get violent with Tourette’s syndrome. Stay out of Belmont, New Hampshire if you have Tourette’s, it’s extremely unsafe there, the governor of New Hampshire will do nothing about the violence against Tourette’s syndrome from Belmont, New Hampshire first responders. In Belmont, New Hampshire, they’ll take your life if you have Tourette’s

    i was a patient of Dr Tammy Hedderly when i was under in child neurology. I had a lot of very advanced issues that were unexplainable and she worked with me for 8-9 years. She was great with me and after so much research I finally got my diagnosis of a progressive degenerative disease called spinocerabellar ataxia which affects the cells of the cerebellum. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't have gotten any answers. All other hospitals said that i was faking my problems and that it was psychological but after numerous MRI scans it actually showed that the cells in my cerebellum were dying off. how a child can fake having rotated legs for days and 6 hour seizures is possible i don't know but I'm thankful that i finally got proof that there was something wrong and that it wasn't psychological. i am now almost 25 and still going strong and I am now under the adult neurology department.

    Tammy Hedderly reported that she called patients that she believed had "fake" tics "Evies" after patient Evie Meg who suffers with PANDAS/BGE and subsequent seizures, motor tics, and vocal tics. This is incredibly unprofessional and shows a complete lack of empathy. It is sad to see someone who we are expected to entrust our vulnerable children to behave in this manner. Justice for Evie and all of the children Hedderly has dismissed and disregarded. Whether you think a patient is displaying symptoms that align with TS or not, to use another patients name to disgrace them is shameful practice.

    My son is 18. As a dad I couldn’t be any more proud of who he is.. He has done amazing in school. He is the definition of the word gentleman. His heart is purer that Lancelot. I believe he is the best of humanity. I’m not worried about his future. I know he will do great things in this world. I’m worried about him meeting a nice young lady. Like he will be graduating this year. He is starting to think about girls in a dating way. I can only offer advice. Now, I just need advice. Any help?

      Sorry for the late reply, but I just turned 19 so me and your son are around the same age.. I have tics (waiting for a TS diagnosis) so I get it. To be honest there isn’t much you can do, just constantly reassure him that his tics don’t define him… he is his own person and tics are just another part of life, he will find people who aren’t nice about it all but he will also find people who are so nice and couldn’t care less about his tics, they’ll love him for him and tics and all :)

    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 mother of God 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 forehead. 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. Justine against charms and all demons. This akathist can be ordered at any other Orthodox church if you are baptized Orthodox.

    I’m diagnosed with anxiety and other stuff (I don’t like to talk about) and when my anxiety gets bad I tic. At first I would panic because I only thought you tic’d if you had Tourette’s. I ended up going to the hospital because they didn’t stop so we thought it was a physical issue. When I found out that because of my anxiety, they could be anxiety tics I was so confused but it made sense. Since I’ve been suffering with anxiety my whole life, I’ve always had little tics that were hardly noticeable. I had tics almost everyday for like a month because I was always having really bad anxiety but slowly they went down after some time on anxiety medication. I still have tics everyday but their manageable, but because of my anxiety and stuff I have agoraphobia. But I’m lucky because my mum has always been by my side, spending nights in hospital and always understanding the little things I do. She’s honestly been a big help with dealing with my mental health issues, she’s my best friend and I honestly don’t know what id do without her….
