My mum has got FND after banging her head 8 years ago and she almost has tic like fit within her FND. She is fine most of the time other than when she is triggered by certain things like loud noises, temperatures and bad fatigue. Seeing you having something similar really helps me because I have really struggled as young child when she first was diagnosed (paramedics thought she had had a stroke and so was rushed into hospital where she was diagnosed with FND) and as a teenager seeing my mum in pain. Thank you so much for your work Nicole even if you never see this comment.

I'm 16 years old, I don't have Tourette's disorder but I was diagnosed with anxiety & asd at 14&15 and knowing neurological disabilities/disorders are being more recognised and accepted is so warming, I sometimes have the odd anxiety tic if I'm in a busy public place feeling extremely overwhelmed like my heads gonna fly off and some people do stare if I tic and fall into a meltdown but knowing people are becoming more familiar and respectful over these disabilities really boosts my confidence.

I don't even think she's faking it but I also don't believe that she got tourettes over night, right when the TikTok tourette-videos was the most popular.
The mind can do a lot of things but I would like to see where she is in 5 years and if she still suffers from Tourettes, and if she is then I was wrong and I will gladly take that.
As of now, no I don't believe she's a medical anomaly who gets tourettes over night

tourettes is not constant. you can have 2 tics that dont happen every day to have tourettes
you will never know if someones faking cuz its not the same for everyone. so stop trying to fake claim
no not all tics are swearing. thats a specific form of tourettes
little kids can have! adults can have it! any one can have it!

Sweety I believe you have tourettes because your tics are spontaneous and normal flow not exaggerated like another person exaggerated their tics for personal gain. Please if you start getting followers and are able to get some cash from it please don't follow that route and start exaggerating your tics for donations and public attention.

This syndrome is the result of a random chemical unbalance in the brain that cause random movements and random word pronounctions in general but there is no specific spical list of symptoms to it. every humanbeing have thier own brain function that is why such syndromes can be diagnosed but not cured or prejugded

I have Tourettes and I tried explaining them to my friends but they didn-t believe me
They barely see me do it bc I try to control it but most of the time I couldn-t. It-s just flaring my nose and twitching it. I used to make sounds but they changed

Why are there so many young people getting these seizure based disorders?
Especially in the UK?
I think we are poisoning ourselves or being poisoned by our governments/corporations, just like with child mass vaccinations and autism.

So many get accused of faking Tourette-s Syndrome, just because they think they want attention. It must be a tough life of getting accused and living with this syndrome. You have so much confidence to open up and share with the world:

She is absolutely a light on the internet and irl. I adored watching her tics and all. Also, it's so intresting that dancing creates some relief for tics, its so great to have a passion outlet that's beneficial in many ways.

Tourette's is like, being a puppet. But the puppeteer doesn't use you all the time. The puppeteer will give you freedom, but control you unexpectedly. It's like co-existing with a demon for some people.

So you realize that saying the complete opposite of what people would normally expect from you will get people to believe that you really do have Tourette-s when I know you-re faking

I do have to say, SOME of her tics do seem forced/fake.
But it is also VERY hard to tell when a young teen is joking/being silly, and when they are having a tic/seizure.

It's just interesting how she didn't tic at all this whole interview. and if she did it was after she completed a full sentence. Not implying anything. just saying.

People shouldn-t be assuming you-re faking it because they don-t know you or your life. Evan if there are people people who fake it.

I-m wondering if something traumatic happened and no one actually knows about it, Tourette-s can be brought on by stress & other things.
