Do you have Tourette’s too?

I had mild Tourette’s growing up as a youth.

I haven’t been treated for it since I was probably 12 years old

I wonder if I still have it. I believe it’s been channeled into OCD over the years. They both kind of pick at your anxiety

Anyone with tics out there?

no but when my daughter was about 8 years old (and this should have been a warning sign of things to come) we were leaving her grandmother’s house and she was in the back seat and started saying curse words that I didn’t even know. A whole big long stream of them just out of the blue. Then she says, “sorry it was just my Tourette’s” I almost crashed the car I was laughing so hard. I still to this day don’t know where she got that from.

Was she in school at the time? She could have gotten it from there

Probably so, they were so young though. I mean some of the curse words she could have picked up from me and my sister, but not all, and then associating it with Tourettes, I have no idea and she never said where she learned it. I hated to laugh, and should have got her in trouble but it was so funny.
