Hey guys! One thing I really haven’t written about on here yet is about my general anxiety. I guess I was busy blogging about Tourette’s and OCD! Anyway I have a lot of generalized anxiety since I do have GAD […]

Hey guys! I am now on Thanksgiving break and it’s so nice to be home! Home cooked meals, sleeping my with puppy, seeing my high school friends! What more could I ask for? So, i’m very happy to be at home, and my […]

So, I was hoping to put off having to implement my usual winter strategies for a little bit longer, but it’s really getting cold outside where I live and my usual compulsion/ tic combo that gets bad in the winter […]

Hey everyone! So as promised I am posting my personal essay that I turned in today for my writing one class. It’s about my experiences in the classroom with Tourette’s. Some parts are not 100% the way […]

This past weekend I has a blast! On Friday I went to the balloon glow event in the park next to campus with a group of people from my floor. That evening required a lot of walking and walking long distances or […]

So over the past few days I’ve really been opening up more with my new friends about my Tourette’s. I figured that pretty much all my friends i’ve made so far have noticed my tics and it’s always easier to explain […]

Okay, so I’m finally ready to write a post. I’ve been avoiding blogging, because i’ve been being lazy about it and well there’s just too much to actually blog about. So I’m not even going to try to blog about […]

Ever heard of toe rolls?!?! Well I sure haven’t! At least until today! Let me explain.

A little while ago (in April), I wrote a post about my toe problem in which my feet and toe tics have been damaging my […]

Today, I wanted to give you all an update on how my tics have been this summer. When I started out the summer with my job at opera theater, my tics calmed down a bit, but were still pretty bad for the most part. I […]

Well, I’ve been in the OCD intensive program for a couple of weeks now and I am already improving so much. I’m doing things that I’ve been avoiding doing for so years now and I feel live this program is really […]

Yesterday I got an e-mail back from my roommate next year for college. She will be my first real roommate and I am both excited and scared. I’m excited because she seems like an awesome person! She is […]

Today I went to the bank to deposit the money I earned from my job as an usher at Opera Theater. I actually earned quite a bit of money working there which is always nice. But that did mean that it would take a […]

Gosh I have been so busy! The last two weeks I have not been on even facebook or youtube for more than 10 minutes and that’s really saying something. Every week day at 10:00-12:00 I have been going to the OCD […]

Well, I’ve been avoiding blogging for a few days. I’ve probably been avoiding it because its summer time now and I’m out of school. I’ve been so busy with my senior project for the past two weeks, and now i’m […]

Today I got a message from a woman who needed some advice about TS and her son’s situation. I thought I would post it on my blog because I know so many people can have similar concerns or can be in similar […]

Yesterday was my elementary school reunion. The school hosted the reunion since we’re all seniors now and will be off to college next year. I knew seeing my elementary school friends would bring back a lot of […]

 A guest blog from Laura, a Tourette advocate from the Netherlands:

Hi everybody!

A while ago I promised that I would write a guest post for the A Little Bit Different blog. I haven’t had the time so far, […]

So today is the last day of my senior year. It’s a bittersweet day because I am really sad to be leaving all my friends and teachers here in high school, but I am also excited to start the next chapter of my life. […]

Had a rough day of tics today and I was yelping loudly and jerking my body pretty violently in a good majority of my classes. It was a long long day and not a very fun one. I only have 3 more days left […]

So today I went to a doctors appointment for a problem I have been having for a while. About a year ago, I noticed that both of my big toe toes had large bruises under the toe nails and ridging of the nails as […]
