okay, so like always i was watching one of ariana’s videos and someone made a comment saying that sometimes they think she has ‘terrets’ just because she randomly sings notes sometimes. and i heard of that word before but i wasnt exactly sure what it really meant, so i did my research. first, its actually spelled tourette’s. and even before i googled it, i knew it was an ignorant comment to make.

i actually cried watching some videos of people with TS (Tourette’s Syndrome), and i realized once again that most of us take A LOT of things for granted. So, i’m fully aware about TS, and i understand it and i’m glad that i really looked into it.

I found this girl on youtube, and her name is Lena and shes 18 years old. she has a mild case of tourettes, and i think she’s amazing. she is so inspiring and brave. and shes the cutest thing ever. watch her videos, and show her some support. help her be the voice for other people with tourettes. all tho, tourettes syndrome awareness month passed, i still want to pass this video around. Not many people know about it, and i think that everyone should, especially teens. We’re quick to judge, and some even quick to bully, without getting to know someone or what they’re going through.

Tourettes is uncontrollable, BUT depending on your situation, and how your feeling a person may have good or bad tic (grunting, twitching, sniffing, hitting, etc) days. the tics change over time. you can develop new tics, and they usually experience about 3-4 at a time. some which are painful. you can try to keep a tic from happening, but eventually it has to come out, and it could be more aggressive if you do so.

Tourette’s is more common in males than females. it is hereditary, but could be cause during pregnancy if the mother is not taking care of herself such as smoking, for example. most people are diagnosed as kids between 5-7, but everyone is usually diagnosed between the ages of 5-18.

please, reblog this. watch her videos. support her. and mostly, educate yourself and anyone else that you know. reblogging this, WILL NOT make your blog look ugly.
