Sometimes I try to redirect my tics. Recently I’ve had this tic “don’t fuck with these *slur* I’m a homophobe”. I’ve somewhat managed to redirect it to “don’t jump with these rabbits I’m a homophone”. Tourettes. End post.

“You’ll understand when you’re older”

Like no, I sure hope I don’t actually. Why are there specific rules for how everyone needs to do things. Why is it disrespectful for me to talk to you while doing something? Why is it disruptive for me to tic in public? Why are we all expected to grow up and shape ourselves into the mold of average. I hope that I never understand what you’re talking about that you somehow can’t put into words. I’m sorry that you felt like you had to conform, but I refuse to. I hope I never ever say “you’ll understand when you’re older” or “it’s just the way it is” to someone ever. Because I want to know why. If you can’t come up with an explanation for why it is that way, then there really must be no reason other than that people really like having boxes of acceptable behavior to shove others into.

People with psychotic disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with personality disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with substance abuse disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with tic disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with bipolar disorder are neurodivergent too.

People with dissociative disorders are neurodivergent too.

Neurodivergence isn’t just ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression. (Plus those last two also get left out sometimes!) Neurodivergence is anything that affects your brain.

“Neurodivergent people hate loud noises” is actually just as valid as a statement as “neurodivergent people have delusions,” “neurodivergent people have tics,” or even “neurodivergent people have low empathy.”

Having tics but no diagnosis is so funny, because I can’t just say “I have a tic disorder” because I’m not diagnosed. My current solution is to just gaslight whoever asks about it.

Like no, my neck didn’t very obviously force itself up, you’re crazy!

Disabled people should be allowed to exist in public. Yes, I mean all disabled people.

That includes people with tic disorders.

That includes people who smell ‘bad’.

That includes people who can’t help being loud.

That includes people who move ‘strangely’.

That includes people with bulky mobility aids.

That includes people who drool.

That includes people who struggle with incontinence.

We all should get to exist, however that looks, and go out in public, use public transport, do activities outside our homes. And we should be allowed to do those things without being glared at or having ableist things said to us.

remind that no matter how 'severe' or 'mild' your tics are, its normal for them to sometimes be worse and other times barely noticeable!

its apart of the tics/tourettes phenomenon called "waxing and waning" and if anything, should make you feel more validated in your diagnosis <3

Silly comic about my tics :PP I don't think they get much of it in the daycare so cue accidental insensitivity and confusion

He's trying his best

Bonus :))

[incognitopolls]

Tics are sudden, involuntary muscle movements and/or vocal sounds. This is asking only about involuntary movements/sounds. (Compulsions and other similar actions that manifest as urges but are still in the end voluntary are not tics.)

We ask your questions anonymously so you don’t have to! Submissions are open on the 1st and 15th of the month.

8:48PM

"babyyyyy? come in the bedroom please my lady!!" billie calls from her bed. she's been slightly sick recently but you don't mind very much.

you fold her baggy shirt and place it on top of the dryer, practically running up the stairs to make sure she's okay. when you get in your shared room, she's lay under the blankets watching the office and sipping lavender tea.

"you called?" you sit on your bed, stroking her arm through the blanket. "yeah, my love, would you mind turning up the heatening for me? if thats okay?" she asks, nervous you'd be too hot. "as long as you're okay, im okay." you kiss her nose soothingly and place a hand on her forehead. she's freezing so you jog down the stairs and turn the heating off.

relucatantly, you return upstairs to make sure she doesn't need anything else. "heating is off now, sweetie." you tell her, getting under the blankets with her. "thank you, such a good girl for me," she says in a slightly sultry voice, her cheeky smirk going well with her blue eyes.

"oh yeah?" you ask, leaning towards her slightly so she can subtly smell the perfume you're wearing. her cheeks flush red and she giggles nervously, changing to her natural flustered persona that she tries and succeeds to cover up.

her eyes meet yours and she leans in slightly, her eyes flickering down to your lips. "can i kiss you, baby?" she asks, patiently waiting for your permission like she always does. you nod and she leans in to connect your lips in a soft, passionate kiss with the intentions of more.

like the gentlewoman she is, she runs her tongue over your bottom lip in request to slip it in. you allow her to and she goes straight to devouring your mouth. "i love you" she whispers, breaking the moment to leave open- mouthed, wet kisses down your neck and to your collarbone.

you blush and whimper slightly, "mmh... bills!! gotta finish the washing.." you mumble, your rosy cheeks distracting her. "later, baby. i need you right now."

she slips her hand down your body and into your shorts, finding out theirs nothing underneath in her favourite way. her fingers come into contact with your core and gather enough of your wetness to slip her fingers in. you moan out as she immediately curls them upwards.

"g- baby.. so much.." you whimper out

"you can take it" she replies in her usual husky tone.

her fingers continue to work and relentlessly curl inside you, bringing you closer to the edge. "billie.." you moan out your eyes almost rolling back.

for some reason, it stops?

you look up with teary eyes, blurring your vision slightly; however, you can still see her face twitching.. she's having a tic attack?

you pull her fingers out and calm her down, stroking her arm. "i- im sorry.." she murmurs out, guilty due to denying your pleasure.

"oh billie don't worry," you reassure her gently, cleaning her fingers off and giving her a hug, pulling her body against yours. you pull the blankets up and rest her head on your chest, stroking your hair until she falls asleep.

"i love you," she mumbles in her last moments until she drifts off into slumber.

Should people with Tourette’s be allowed in public spaces?

Your immediate answer is probably yes, but it gets more complicated than just being at stores and daily necessities. Many people have very strong opinions on where I, and people like me, should be allowed.

As someone diagnosed with Tourette syndrome, I am very aware of how my tics can be ‘annoying’ or ‘disruptive’. For the longest time I completely avoided places like libraries and movie theatres because I knew people would think of me as an annoyance and distraction to their peace.

When I did begin to venture into these places, I would get asked to leave, or receive dirty looks and comments about how people “like me” should just stay at home. This was frankly upsetting, because I, like any teenager, wish to be like everyone else, and do the things that everybody does.

Despite this, I believe that we should be allowed in public places, even places like museums, libraries, theatres, and places you typically are supposed to be quiet in. We cannot control our tics, and have just as much right to occupy public spaces and a neurotypical person.

Saying that the tics of people with Tourette’s are “inconvenient” is like saying the seizures from someone with epilepsy are inconvenient. It’s not fair to us. Sure, it annoys you, but imagine how we feel, dealing with our symptoms on a daily basis.

Overall, I deserve the same amount of respect as anyone else. Your reaction to my disability shouldn’t prohibit me from going about my daily life. And frankly, if you can’t handle being around me with my Tourette’s, leave. Your reaction is not my problem.

Little animations for my DR tic headcanons!! To be so clear this is *not* me trying to create good rep, this is explicitly me projecting my own tics onto some little guys using gimmicky plot points and then making art about it! so like. grain of salt and a little ableism cw 👍

Chiaki who freezes and shudders in overstimulating environments, ostensibly because her tics are triggered by sound/light/motion — but then in Ch.6 you learn she was actually just lagging when the computer had too much stuff to render nearby. This makes it even more disorienting postcanon when they remember the real Chiaki, who had a slightly different personality and completely different tics. Most of them were omitted from the AI because it was averaged from the memories of several students (including Hajime) who never noticed or mistook them for fidgeting — helped by the fact that her tics vanished whenever she was focusing on a game. It's convoluted but in a way that I think suits the source material lol.

Kokichi who is an expert at making tics look intentional, because he'd rather come off as "annoying on purpose" or even pretend to mock the disorder he secretly actually has than just admit there's a part of himself he can't control. And he certainly doesn’t need anyone outside DICE realizing the tics are a very honest indicator of his stress levels. He treats his own outbursts as cues to whine that he’s bored; he makes meaningful eye contact with Shuichi whenever he can’t stop blinking, because he knows it’ll make Shuichi lose his mind trying decode a Morse code message that doesn't exist; and in the killing game he pairs his motor tics with the straitjacket uniform and a cringy Joker impression to create some campy caricature of “crazy” that scares the people who are idiots (Kaito) and makes everyone else think he’s just doing an offensive bit — which, for better or worse, he kind of is.

I wish more people understood Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorders

[positivelyqueer]

hey, love to people get looked weird on public transport. Who ‘scary.’ Talk to self or others that other people don’t perceive. Loud tics. Jerky movements. Tremors. Big stimming. Big tics. Coprolalia. Doubly for people intersections make people more biased. Hope have easy days and know that self (Radio) think you’re cool.
