In 2012, I was diagnosed with Tourettes. Over the past two years, I've developed several new tics: I make vvocal noises, I am constantly rocking AND I can't go out in public!

    Did you see a psychiatrist or an neurologist?

        What did your doctor's say? Have you tried treating it with herbal or alternative medicine?

        Wouldn't you have disability rights or something like that? Couldn't they have put you in a position where you don't have to deal with people?

          Tourettes is something that CAN'T be cuted as it's a neurological thing.
          About my job, I used to work at an ice cream parlor... But the thing is, I couldn't repeat the order back to them...

    I don't know how normal it is to not want to go out, but I imagine that it would be very understandable.
