Ask me if you have any questions about tourettes syndrome or tics.

Hi, I'm 14 and I was diagnosed with tourrettes 3 years ago. Feel free to ask me any question you might have about tourettes or just tics in general!

How do you cope at school?

I'm quite lucky to be homeschooled, so i don't really have that issue. I only struggle with my studies if I have a headache (which thankfully doesn't happen too often) or if my neck hurts from my head jerking tic (then i struggle to concentrate a bit).

The strength varies on my situation. If i'm nervous or really concentrated on something they get worse, but if I'm relaxed then they aren't as bad. I can make the less strong but it's uncomfortable and I sometimes get a headache so I don't really try stopping it.
