i have a fairly bad form of terrets syndrome, it doesnt just come out in the way i talk, it also comes out in the way i act. this is a big problem for me as its affecting my chances of getting work or a girlfriend and stuff. i always do stupid stuff and then regret it afterwards when i see sense. this is how bad it is: i was out with my parents at a nice dinner party, as the waiter approached, my terrets syndrome kicked in and i climbed onto the table where i pooped into my grandma's soup - it was smelly and oogey and poor granma nearly had a heart attack, she hasnt spoke to me since even though she knows about my condition - i think i've scarred her for the rest of her life. now she has to see a therapist every week even though i'm the victim here. what should i do?

For the poor people who have it I do feel sorry for them but as for you grow up. How dare you make fun of these people.

I would hate to think that you are making fun of poeple with this disease or the disease itself. Yes, the correct spelling is tourettes, however, half of the answers I read are full of incorrect grammar.
What should you do? You should send your grandmother a written apology. Since grandmothers are older, they seem to view this as more sincere. In it you should not say at all that she's to blame because she knows of your condition, but take responsibility and apologize. Then go to your doctor and either get on medication or have the doctor up your medication(s). You obviously need help, whether you're making this up or not.

Look...................there is nothing you can do try to get medication if possible but if your grandma can't accept ypu for you diesease then too bad. When you meet knew people explain to them what it is and what it does. If they can't.............it's whatever. Don't let it get to.I know that will be hard but i mean..............what can you do, you can't beat yourself up for it when you the victim. That's like saying you were raped but it's your fault. What sense does that make. Even though it happened , and you cant change it or forget it, you got to live with it and make it to the best of your abilities. Just TRY to have a positvie out look and laugh it off. Its all you can do. Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

did anyone stop to think if he truly has the syndrome? well if u do i really think u shld talk with ur folks, tell em u really need help and they shld try to get that for u. u might try asking ur GP to recommend someone who's an expert, or type the name of the syndrome in google to see what information they have on it. i hope u find websites that actually have members with the syndrome who can help u cope with it.

If this is a genuine question I think you should see a therapist via your GP. Cognitive behaviour exercises might do the trick.Good Luck.!!!!

I don't think you should take the mickey of someone with a serious problem, grow up, and count your blessings you do NOT have this condition.!!,
