So… I found a person that share the same (somewhat) debilitating disorders I do. Its nice to talk with someone who knows what its like to not be able to control your movements (or in her case, words) or thoughts abotu things or worries…we both share tourettes, OCD, and anxiety disorders. For the most part I am judged by others silently as they wonder what my problem is. “Why does she keep touching her nose? Why does she keep crunching her nose up? And what’s up with the way she keeps fidgeting?”
If you see someone like that or someone that says certain words over and over or whatever…cut them some slack. If you’re genuinely curious…ASK! But the best thing (in my opinion) is just ignore it and look away because we CAN feel your stares and even sometimes laughter. We CANT HELP IT. Trust me…if we could, we would. It would make our lives SO much easier!
