I mean, come on...people have the urge to just blurt out obscene, socially unacceptable words?? Why those words?? That's a clear mentally unstable asshole who does that. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1068431right? If you've got it, then it's not a bunch of hooey. I know people who do have it, and it's no laughing matter. You probably should do some personal research on it first, before making a generalised and ignorant thread. We are but eternal spiritual beings living a temporary human experience. |

Quoting: Cynical Realistright? Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder that most often is first diagnosed in childhood, but it may be recognized at any age. Its passed on geneticaly. I have worked with children with this disorder. I can tell you they are not faking. I have also worked with many adults with the disorder whom are not faking. I also have known a few people who have made a living off of faking it (usually cousins or parents amazingly trying to get some attention and money from the gov). I also suggest doing some personal research to try and clear some of the ignorance from your train of thought. It may not change your mind, but you will be able to criticize with a bit more clarity. |
Cynical Realist Senior Forum Moderator User ID: 1067117 United Kingdom 08/15/2010 08:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Tourette's is a neurological disorder within the spectrum of autism , OCD, and Asperger's. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1059464Nope.... Tourettes is a spectrum disorder, but are not related to ocd or asperger`s. However people who suffer from tourettes can often have ADHD also.

wisdomknight User ID: 1060312 United States 08/15/2010 08:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Its not just swearing (actually thats a very rare form of it). Its mostly ticks and movements (that can be very dangerous to oneself)....not to mention exhausting. Picture being a puppet on string and having someone forcing you to move yourself around to the point of exhaustion from day until night. Even things like constant twisting of the neck, leading to sever neck and back injury/pain. As well as constant banging of the hands/knuckles, elbows to a point where one can have permanet nerve damage. Not so funny like in TVland huh?

Fortunately, the majority but not all of TS sufferers have a remittance of symptoms by adulthood, however, that does not mean they return to a normal developmental trajectory.

In short, having TS or any disorder fucking blows for the individual and their family. Ive suffered with it for 35 years and counting and its just as bad now than ever. Ive been a husband and hard working father of four children and at only 39 years old I have the chronic pains of an 80 year old. I guess I wasnt one of the lucky "majority".
