My daughter has Tourette’s but doesn’t curse which is the majority of persons with TS

Junkies. Um, so my daughter has threats. She was diagnosed at 4. She is 17. Um, she is in the majority of persons with Tourette's in that. She doesn't have the cursing spells. Um, She that's only 10% of persons with threats that have. I think it's Coppelia. I I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure this 1 is called. Um when you curse and say the most horrible thing you could possibly say at the moment. Um but she there's a lot of comorbidity come morbidities uh learning disabilities. She struggles with OCD, she she ruminates on the worst things. So currently she was ruminating on saying I'm a Nazi and all the things that she hears in the media. Right now that you don't say, she's thinking them all the time, um, which is is just awful for their psyche. Uh, and yeah, I think there's been a lot of focus on the form of Tourette's. That's, um, always, I call it Hollywood Tourette's. Um, so when people find out, she has Tourette's, they're like, oh, what do you what do you curse? Do you say this? And she kind of feels like not understood. Um, and she's super shy too. So, um, she has motor tics, you do have to have a vocal Tech but her vocal ticks are kind of I pitched squeals and such like that. Um, anyway, yeah, have a great day, just my 2 cents.
