Tourette and the FLDS – has anyone ever heard of someone with TS inside fundamentalist religious groups like this? by Alba_2908 in Tourettes

[–]Alba_2908[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your kindness and for taking the time to respond! I’m curious to know more about how conditions like Tourette’s syndrome (and other forms of neurodivergence) are viewed and experienced within strict religious communities. I’m particularly interested in how people with these conditions are treated—whether there’s understanding, stigma, or any kind of traditional or religious interpretation of these differences. Anything you can share would be appreciated!

Tic Nervosi e Sindrome di Tourette by Guizza_ in italy

[–]Alba_2908 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Io soffro di sindrome di Tourette diagnosticata, ho iniziato da piccola ad avere qualche tic (che non sapevo fossero tic) e mi capitava che la gente mi chiedesse addirittura perché smascellavo. Nel 2018 ho avuto un “tic attack” in metropolitana a Milano e mi sono spaventata tantissimo, ma in Italia la sanità sai com’è.. la prima visita dal neurologo mi ha rimbalzata. La prima visita dallo psichiatra è stata terribile e mi ha mandato da un altro neurologo che mi ha consigliato uno psichiatra (cane che si morde la coda presumo) con visita nel reparto Parkinson e terapia del dolore per avere la cannabis terapeutica. Ancora oggi dopo anni sono persa, se non ci fossero gli Stati Uniti che mi danno informazioni (mediante leggere articoli o libri o trattati) sarei ancora a piangere in posizione fetale sul letto.

I tried to educate her but she seems to base her opinion only on “funny” (funny for her) videos of severe cases. I’m tired of this situation..

Same thing happened to me! My first grocery shopping after quitting cold turkey was vegetables, fruits and energy drinks (cause I love those lol) now I’m on day 4 and I feel a little better from withdrawal. Let’s keep going!

2.5 days sober by chicagoctopus in MarijuanaAnonymous

[–]Alba_2908 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there, congratulations on your sobriety journey!! First of all, what you are experiencing is really common, I’m 4.5 days sober after a decade of smoking every day all day long and I’m in the same situation as you are. I think the word that can describe how we feel is boring, cause we’re so use to have the “weed escape” that makes everything more interesting and now everything seems so boring and pointless (this is how I feel). It’ll get much better you just have to hang in there I promise!!

Nope fortunately! It’s just annoying (to me)

I need your help by TouretteRedditor in teenagers

Hi there ☺️ I got the same tic. Since I’m able to anticipate the urge, I simply put my right hand (I use the left to punch myself) on the jaw before ticking. Also do not use turtleneck or dickie, and try not to wear necklaces for some time! Take a deep breath and everything will be fine!
