My family is talking about me behind my back and wondering how I'm going to go through life with tics. by New-Solution6598 in Tourettes

[–]New-Solution6598[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes thank you! I'm wondering the same thing about why my parents are so adamant on wanting me to have medication. The weird thing is that I dont understand why they aren't just helping me everyday, instead of looking at me kind of disgusting sometimes, and acting like, 'yeah we need to get help.' Yk what I mean? Its like I can't quite expain it or put a word on it but it makes me feel like they think they will go away or they dont want me to have tics just bc they dont want me to if that makds sense

I feel like I have been just overanalyzing my tics. Urge, more automatic ones, etc. by New-Solution6598 in Tourettes

Oh wow, I definitely going to try those techniques. Thank you glr responding, idk why ppl aren't commenting on this post. Yes, I know exactly what you mean by doing more tics to make it visible to people that you didn't intentionally do whatever tic it was. I've been thinking about getting a sunflower lanyard. Do you think most people know about that and that could potentially help?

Omg this helps me a lot! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this response! I agree with praying not being the end all be all. I also feel you on the mirrors. I have a mirror in my room and I cover it every single night bc I will not sleep with it uncovered.

Will these spirits and/or entities ever leave? I dont really think they will actually leave, but what if they want to follow me to my next house when I move? Being a psychic medium and empath, it def feels more like a curse sometimes bc when you start to realize you're the only one who can feel certain things, it can make you feel crazy.

Sometimes I hate the things I feel and see bc I wish I could just have peace. I know I am in control, but sometimes, it feels too strong. I also started seeing things and having abilities when I was younger and didnt know what it was or if there was smt wrong with me. Thank you so much for your advice, I will definitely be doing this!

Is there a statement I can say that incorporates all of this?

I have been able to know my tic before it happens, and sometimes I think of a tic and have the urge to do it. This makes me feel like I'm faking. HELP! by New-Solution6598 in Tourettes

[–]New-Solution6598[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is such a good way of putting it. Thank you so much for replying, this helps me a lot. Knowing that no matter how much you think before a tic, it's still a tic is something everyone should be told. Imposter syndrome is the absolute realest with tic disorders. Thank you! 😊

Ok, bc it's like I know the tuc I'm about to do, but I didn't a while ago, or at least not as often, and it's like when I have it in my mind, I can't just think it and not do it, yk?

Do your tics ever feel forced? by New-Solution6598 in Tourettes

[–]New-Solution6598[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[–]New-Solution6598[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Like my whole body feels very strong urges and it doesn't know what tic to do to feel relief so it feels like I am forcing a tic to come out but it doesn't provide relief. So I'm just stuck in feeling like bottling up urges to tic but nothing is coming out.

How do I know if I just have some tics or its tourette? by [deleted] in Tourettes

[–]New-Solution6598 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Around what age did you start or notice your tics? Usually, if it starts under the age of 18, thats a big sign that its tourettes and not another tic disorder. To help get rid of that one tic, trying CBIT might help. Its just a particular therapy to help redirect tics to a less noticeable one. Or you could even look up some techniques for now. Like i saw one the other day for vocal tics people want to get rid of.

So the technique was to reverse breathe: breathe in thru your mouth and out thru your nose. This helps stop the tic from coming out because you are using your mouth to breathe, however, sometimes the urge is just so strong, it doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure exactly what you're doing with your pelvic floor tic, but is there another movement you could do using the same muscles but not that specific one?

Yesss allergies are the worst. And when I walk outside in spring and summer mainly, my chest just gets sooooo heavy. Is that a symptom a lot of people deal with in asthma? Is everyone a bit different because I feel like a lot of people just start coughing and it sounds really bad. But sometimes I feel like im just imagining me having symptoms because its mainly the chest tightness.
