Long term lurker.
I have autism and ADD diagnosis. For the past few months I’ve been getting odd urges to shout certain phrases. I’ve always managed not to actually do it however. A few days ago whilst walking the dog I shouted something out without even thinking about it, there was no urge or anything, I didn’t even realise what I was doing until after I had done it. I was mortified incase anyone had heard (although it wasn’t anything offensive). It’s happened twice since. Both in the house - again no urges, it just comes out. The urges are coming back back but I can always control them. When stuff comes out there is no warning urge. Only one occasion has been mildly offensive.
Im terrified I may have Tourette’s. I can’t speak to anyone about it as nobody would believe me. I’m worried it is going to get worse and more offensive. For around 6 months I have also had urges to throw stuff over my shoulder (especially drinks).
I am on an ADHD/ADD group and have asked if this could be my ADD but it seems unlikely and tourettes has been mentioned a few times now. Any experience of this?
