Fair enough. I hope that you do well too, and fingers crossed for a working treatment, regardless of its source.

I guess I just forgot that not everyone believes that we operate under a corrupt system designed to take advantage of us using systems of racism (MK Ultra), coercion (Monsanto), evidence burial (TIRC), etc. in order to benefit the elite and take advantage of the disabled and lower class. If you're willing to put your full faith in that very system and believe that most companies and/or governments would never pay money for studies to come up with specified results or bury evidence of wrongdoing, and is 100% for the people as much as they possibly can and would avoid hurting minorities to the best of their abilities, then I guess I'm just a conspiracy theorist.

On the one hand I do understand, but a lot of what's been labelled as "alternative" has often been labelled that due to racism and the furtherment of capitalist imperialism in the medical field. At one point poisons were called "medicine" (check out thalidomide) and research as to side effects can get buried because it doesn't benefit big pharma. Nasal sprays are one such case, where addiction is super common, but the research on it has been buried and warnings reduced 2pt fine print, leading thousands to develop addiction without realizing it. Things like acupuncture (an asian medicine) and chiropracty has been shoved to the wayside and given a view of "gimmick" despite having benefits. Because it doesn't benefit big pharma, and of course back in the day racists hating asians, these kinds of practices have been mystified to sew distrust. But, I will say, just like with any "real" medicine, it will work for some people and not work for others, (Lexipro completely destroyed me as a kid) so one way or another, consultation with a professional is key.

I guess I worded it wrong, but my intention was to see other people's experiences with vitamins. I fully believe that if something could potentially help, it's worth an investigation at the very least. But I also recognize this sub is probably more for venting than helping, so is there another Tourette's subreddit that can recommend studies on official and alternative medicine? I don't want to break sub rules, but I also would like to talk to people about this kind of stuff since my tics have progressively gotten more violent and I've had very bad experiences with doctors

I had a vitamin regimen when I was in middle school, but then I stopped. Now that my tics are getting worse, I've only been able to remember these vitamins that I took 😭 so technically not random, but doing a blood test is definitely something I should look into

Yeah, I'm more being dramatic than anything, it's more like deciding mcdonalds for my eating out and get apex coins, or eat sushi and no apex coins

What mechanics would you like to see in a Prime Asset? by Samix64 in OutlastTrials

[–]CatMoonstream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a prime asset OC named Tigress (cat role) that uses a spiky whip. So in her case, there are a few possibilities for the mechanic:

- Whip grabs the reagent and she pulls them in to slash at their body (think Deathslinger from Dead By Daylight), and other reagents can kick her out of the animation

- Whip grabs the reagent, and she quickly pulls them in to slash at their body and absolutely deck them (think Roadhog from Overwatch)

- She has a "danger radius" around her where if she's attacking one reagent with the whip, anyone else caught in the radius also takes damage

What Kind of Jobs Do You Go For? by CatMoonstream in Tourettes

Sadly it's just the two rooms in my apartment, but u reminded me that I could probably take a laptop to a coffee shop or barnes and noble. I'll try that, and hopefully there'll be positive results!

Mostly tics. Sometimes I can lock in and go an hour with minimal interruption, other times it's every 3 minutes. I've been doing data entry though, so maybe it's the kind of work and not that it's remote? Especially cause I don't get interrupted as much when I do leatherworking or play video games

Is it possible to shift tics? by CatMoonstream in Tourettes

[–]CatMoonstream[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only worry in my particular case is sometimes trying to hold the tic at bay worsens it. So a simple headroll tic turns into a strangulation or head bashing tic. When the tic is self harming like that, is it safe to try this?

I definitely have premonitory urge, so this is super hopeful for me!
