It has been a long time coming but I am relieved to have finally got a diagnosis and some help from a psychologist with my son, who has suffered tics for many years and crippling anxiety. Any tips on how I can communicate with school and how I can explain to people without them thinking I am neurotic, and ideas on how not to stigmatise my son. It would be nice to be in touch with other people who are in or have been through a similar situation.
