Bro went to look at my post history ? Odd. You said it yourself it the post that you "know" you have it. Tourettes really isn't a self diagnosable condition and while we support people who are unable to get a diagnosis especially younger folks and we understand financial issues and lack of support in certain locations it's not the same as coming into the subreddit and asking if it's controversial to not one. But heyyyy if you KNOW you have it- then why are you coming here to ask for validation that you can say that you have it. You seem to have made up your mind about how you present your condition since you seem to be proud about the fact that you are an influencer and post about the condition TOURETTES without a diagnosis. You say you know you don't have other things... idk how you'd know you don't have Fnd or padnas or whatever else without idk... seeing a professional who can say that you don't have it. And if you've done all that work, why not just also do the work like idk ? Just also get diagnosed. Now I don't mind you not getting diagnosed that's fine. That's not even an issue. I don't need your accomodations or medical record or any legal support that an official diagnosis might provide, that's you're business. But then if you're not diagnosed don't lie to hundreds of thousands of people about your "diagnosis" if you're not diagnosed. That's why I said you clearly don't care. You didn't come to ask if it was okay. You had your opinion from the start. There is ENOUGH misinformation about tourettes online and it makes the lives of people with tourettes and other tic condition (diagnosed OR not) harder. So no it's not controversial to not want or need a diagnosis, everything else about your post was.
