What tourettes syndrome really is...
Everybody thinks that Tourette's syndrome is just people getting angry for no reason and shouting out swear words.
But guess what? It's not. Not at all.
Tourette's syndrome is a mental disorder, usually diagnosed in an individual before their eighteenth birthday. It consists of uncontrollable motor movements and muscle spasms/jerks. The most common symptoms of Tourette's syndrome are eye blinking, clearing of the throat, sniffing, and small things like that. They can include spasms of the limbs as well.
Only 10% of all people affected by Tourette's have problems with shouting obscenities or making profane gestures. And even for those few rare cases, it's not out of "rage" at all. It's simply because they can't control it. It's like breathing. You can't control it, it's not your fault, and there is absolutely nothing you can do.
Everybody makes fun of Tourette's as f it's optional. Like its some kind of anger issue or something. Because thats the way Hollywood and film and TV have made it out to be, and people, though I'm sure they aren't trying to be hurtful, make jokes about the rare group of people afflicted who shout profanity against their own will.
Don't believe me? Im fourteen years old and I have Tourette's. I'm constantly picked on and made fun of and told I have anger issues even though never in my life have I shouted one profanity. I blink my eyes, clear my throat, lick my lips until they're raw and I have a rash all over my mouth, and scrunch up my nose as well as making over facial contortions.
I want everybody to be aware of what this really is. I want people to understand what this really is, and I want to end all the bullying and prejudice about Tourette's syndrome.
And that's exactly what I'm going to do.
I don't think that the person above was trying to personally attack you, but rather offer advice.
Have you ever personally encountered a demon or a demon possessed person? It is very much like tourettes in some cases. If you are a true believer, you will understand that God can affect our physical bodies just as the devil can. If God can heal cancerous tumors and cells, why couldn't the devil do the opposite and cause these afflictions? Neurological disorders are no different.
I do not know everything there is to know, but I am positive that God can heal all wounds; even neurological. If for nothing more than a hopeless attempt to you, I still suggest you ask God to reveal to you if any demons are attached to you. Rebuke them in Jesus name, and ask that your bodied be cleansed and made sacred in the blood of the lamb. Worse case scenario it can do no harm, and best case, you rid yourself of the demons attached to you physically causing this disorder.
I wish you all the best, and truly with all of my heart, I pray that you may be healed.
???????????????????????????????????? I loved reading all this!!! I agree with you! If only most people could see with their eyes closed! The reality of this world is so different from what your physical eyes show you. Jah bless
