I hate this

Yet again I’m really frustrated with my tourettes.

My tics have started ticcing things like I want rape you, you whore. And other things very similar.

I fucking feel like giving up. I hate it so much. I’m not going out apart from in my back garden (we have snow and my cat loves the snow).

I’m just fucking exhausted. I hate Tourette’s. I feel like such an outcast. Like I don’t belong in public.

For all those people who think tourettes is hilarious this is the reality of it.

Sorry for moaning yet again.

Sending very warm hugs. Tourette's is a shit

Have you been prescribed any medication? Some of the SSRIs are used to treat tourettes.

Moan away, it is such a misunderstood thing sadly. I remember watching a show about a Mum who developed Tourette’s which was eye opening but still only a slight insight.

Hope it settles soon.

💐 moan away my love. It sounds exhausting.

Thanks guys.

I just feel so shit about it all. The last thing I want to do is offend someone but it seems to happen so frequently. I often think I’m just a horrible person to think these things, but I know I’m not otherwise I wouldn’t be worried about. I feel like lots of the public think I’m horrible because I tic these things. And many don’t realise they’re tics and think I’m just deliberately saying stuff.

Awh, most of us are understanding, so don't worry about the pricks.
Sending love, and understanding. Xx
