Tourettism

for people who are struggling with the disorder. TS is diagnosed after a year by doctors to confirm that the condition is rightfully claimed. https://www.ninds.nih.gov/Disorders/Patient-Caregiver-Education/Fact-Sheets/Tourette-Syndrome-Fact-Sheet Although, medication is given to help ease tics people still deal with other problems coming from TS. Depression is picked up quickly from victims and bullying becomes an everyday thing for some people. The best way to help victims of tourette's is to comfort them as much as comfort everyone else because that's who they are. If you see bullying you should speak to someone concerning the problem. If we stand against bullying we could save a life or make a day easier for someone struggling with tourettism. https://www.tourette.org/about-tourette/overview/living-tourette-syndrome/bullying-issues/ Tourettes is no stranger to some of the biggest names in television like David Beckham, Tim Howard, Marc Summers and Jim Eisenrich. They teach you not to let anything keep you away from your goal as they get on television and perform every week as if nothing's wrong. Inspiring icons such as Howie Mandel gets mainstreamed over millions of people but the public doesn’t realize that he also deals with tourette's syndrome. TS can not be stopped but it can be overlooked as a bump on the road on the way to success. http://www.schoolbehavior.com/disorders/tourettes-syndrome/famous-people-with-tourettes-syndrome-or-obsessive-compulsive-disorder/ …

Tourette's syndrome is a problem with the nervous system that causes people to make sudden movements or sounds, called tics, that they can't control. For example, someone with Tourette's might blink or clear their throat over and over again. Some people may blurt out words they don't intend to say. Treatments can control tics, but some people don’t need any unless their symptoms really bother them. Your nervous system is involved in everything your body does, from regulating your breathing to…

I have interviewed an exceptional individual diagnosed with Tourette syndrome. He is a family friend named Chris, who is now a freshman in college at Wentworth Institute of Technology.

There are two kinds of tics associated with Tourette syndrome. Tics that involved movement are called motor tics, whereas tics that involve sound…

Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder classified by repetitive, involuntary movements, and vocalizations known as tics (Kutscher, 2005). Physical tics are usually movements of the face, arms, limbs, or trunk and are frequent, repetitive, and rapid. Vocal tics include humming, grunting, or saying actual words, usually in an explosive manner (Walkup, 2007).
