Got new anxiety medication dosages and all that jazz. And we talked about my tics. There are so many of them I can't even count. Head jerking, hand wringing, snapping, shaking, whimpering, lip biting, jaw clenching, the list goes on and on and on. But at this point, I&amp;nbsp; only have an 85% diagnoses. 85% sure I have fairly severe Tourette's Syndrome. Noone understands. Why is it that everyone thinks that part of having Tourette's is yelling swear words? And if you dont do that, well, obviously you dont have it. ITS SO FRUSTRATING! Anyone else want to rant about it?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8662330211194924817-1840927131125642955?l=erasethestigma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://erasethestigma.blogspot.com/feeds/1840927131125642955/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://erasethestigma.blogspot.com/2011/11/tourettes-it-sucks.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8662330211194924817/posts/default/1840927131125642955'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8662330211194924817/posts/default/1840927131125642955'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://erasethestigma.blogspot.com/2011/11/tourettes-it-sucks.html' title='Tourette&apos;s--it sucks!'/><author><name>Mara</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10901905333801458922</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
