I can't believe they didn't diagnose her until she was 27. What an utter, disastrous failing of our medical system.

The attention seeking thing is a huge problem for a lot of young people, especially young women. Unfortunately the roots of medicine as it is now practiced are in the years of “hysteria” as a diagnosis and those unconscious biases haven’t been eradicated yet, not even close. Re: UK vs USA, this is a problem in both countries (and also in Europe and Canada and likely nigh on everywhere else) but at least in the UK they don’t charge you for the privilege of being gaslighted about your body, and your income isn’t a barrier for getting to see appropriate specialists.

Imagine being a qualified professional and telling a child they’re attention seeking when they have Tourette’s

As a neurologist and a young woman I find this interview endlessly fascinating. She’s so relatable and so well able to express her experience. The tics are so complex and, 2:47 min into the video, somehow super cute. I’ve seen a number of tics, some involving a risk of self-harm, and find her tics very endearing somehow.

Thank you for sharing your unique talent ups and downs with the world. I have learned a few things from your story. Thank you. Thank you LADbible TV for the interview.

Omg, you beautiful person. This was so validating to hear someone talk about living with Tourettes. I've never been diagnosed but have had motor tics and throat tics for as long as I can remember. Growing up they always made things awkward. To hear you talk about your experiences and watch you tic as you do it, I just can't express how good it feels to watch it be acknowledged and at the same time ignored. As an adult in an office job, I always feel like I need to keep my tics under control and make them as unnoticeable as possible, so people won't think I'm weird. On a side note, I am sorry your Tourettes involves coprolalia, and that you felt like you couldn't live until your very overdue diagnosis. I don't envy that form of Tourettes. My son has it as well, and he struggles with interpersonal relationships like you did. You seem like a fantastic role model for successfully navigating life with this condition.

Thank you, my 10 year old son has tics since 6 years old. He is so friendly with everyone and everyone loves him. But me and my wife still felt that heart ache and guilt when we watch him having those tics. Like we failed him. I know it's silly to think like that. And my son is so strong and living his life to the fullest. Maybe we all have to learn to live with it as life goes on.

as a boy with Tourette's, this video makes me unbelievably happy not only because I'm able to relate to it with passion, but because it lets me know that there are other people out there that struggle with this disorder. I was diagnosed with it at around 7 or 8 years old and all I can say is that making friends and socializing is incredibly difficult. Every person I have met that has this disorder is the most kind hearted, understanding person you'll ever meet. I think that's because they've been so hurt and mistreated by people and don't want to inflict that on others and that doesn't just apply for Tourette's. If you ever meet someone with Tourette's, please just be understanding and empathetic with them, they will like you immediately, trust me.

I find Anita so inspiring as she sets an example of how to come to terms with who you are without feeling the need to change. I don't have Tourette's, but I do have Aspergers (high functioning autism) and I've often struggled with awkward speech and movements and I've been told it makes people feel uncomfortable, so in that way, I feel like I can kinda relate. I hope she keeps going on and speaking out about her condition.

Great interview! I'm glad that you have showcased such a high functioning person with a real, and natural, disorder. She has clearly gained a great deal of insight as a result of dealing with her condition and is very articulate when describing her experience. Good luck, miss.

Is it strange that I like her tics? I know it’s involuntary and that they almost feel an urge but for her to whistle that clearly so quickly is incredible.

@MegaWarrior8

It's worth saying that our understandings of neuroscience in general are barely more than infantile in comparison to other medical science studies... It's not epilepsy or tourettes, but I only realized about a month ago that I can't recall ever sneezing once on a motorcycle, and I'm fairly allergic to much of the surrounding environment... from molds and pollen to animal dander and dust... BUT for whatever reason, I've sneezed my head off in cars... even while I was driving... BUT never that I can recall on a motorcycle... which would be considerably more hazardous than driving a car and sneezing in uncontrolled fits... Emotional states DO elicit physiological changes, too. They are measurable and real physical changes. That could be at least part of it... I mean, it's imperative that I keep my emotional state relatively stable on the bike, because getting angry stiffens you up, the same as fear will stiffen you up, and the same as cold chills will stiffen you up. You can't ride skillfully if you can't move fluidly... AND that's a recipe for disaster on a motorcycle covering a 100 feet every second... It's important to note that when you get tense, it really doesn't matter why. It may only interfere a negligible amount with your skills on the bike, but it ALWAYS interferes. You can't "cheat" either. These are physiological changes, and while some effect certain people more than others, they are still detrimental. Of course, to me, riding has always been more akin to meditation than an adrenaline fueled sport, so that probably has some to do with how I can maintain a relatively stable emotional state on a moving motorcycle. Sure, people do dumb things in traffic, and it can be irritating... I'm human as the next guy or gal. I just prefer to blow it off in a few choice words and cleverly coined insults under the helmet, and releasing the anger, I make the maneuvering adjustments to render any hazard to a "non-issue" or effectively evade the catastrophe... AND of course, gear is worn to mitigate those times when skills alone can't. In any case, I wouldn't give up hope. We may well make significant progress. The "cutting edge" is miles ahead of where it was when I was a kid... and pneumonia was a summertime infection as often as winter... which for me was twice every year until I was in the fifth grade... ;o)
