For better awareness/understanding of the neuro-developmental condition Tourette syndrome (GTS), assoc symptoms/conditions | Research | Promoting Inclusion/Educ

Clinicians report that patients with #Tourette syndrome frequently find #sensory processing difficulties to be as disruptive (or more disruptive) as motor #tics.


There is an overly entrenched view that #Tourette syndrome consists only of tics and that all other 'issues' are a consequence of separate 'comorbid' disorders. #Autism is however seen as a disorder in which similar diverse aspects are part of an inclusive whole

I actually get quite annoyed when other disabled people encourage ableds to ask disabled people about their disabilities instead of staring. Like if that's cool with you personally, great, but I for one don't want to tell 853179 people what Tourette's is today.

I’m going to just say this quick: disabled people don’t owe you answers to your questions about them. It’s not on us to teach you. If you ask a disabled person a question about their disability & they don’t feel like answering you, walk away.
