Tourette's is Hell
#5
RE: Tourette's is Hell
I hate it when a sickness is stereotyped. Some people think Dyslexia is just reading words backwards, when really it's about your brain having trouble connecting the letters to become words. It can manifest itself as reading backwards, but not always. But yeah, I used to think Tourettes was about yelling things, the South Park episode certainly didn't help. I ended up watching a special on it, showing a kids camp and all the children had very different manifestations of the syndrome.

I definitely feel for you, Adrian. Dealing with medical problems as a child is the worst, because you can't even really understand what is happening or why.
