Having a Tic Attack at 2am | this is tourettes.
It's a little after 2 in the morning and I just had a tic attack. Tourette's is NOT a joke. I am so tired of seeing people faking tourettes as a trend because they think it's "cute" or "quirky". Tourette's is a debilitating disorder. My tics aren't usually this severe, only during my tic attacks. I wanted to film this for education and awareness purposes. Tourette's isn't only the funny stuff you see on tiktok. Fakeclaiming is so harmful. Ugh. I just want to sleep.
As a girl with Tourette's, I would love to spread awareness and education about my disorder, as I feel it is quite misunderstood in today's society. The media has made it out to be a swearing disorder only, which is far from true. I hope this video will educate you on Tourette Syndrome and tic disorders! Life with Tourettes can be difficult, but just know that we're the same as everyone else...except for the fact we tic like clocks! (:
