I saw this video on Snapchat (profile name is "Born Different") about Trevor's story instantly latched onto my heart and I've been googling like crazy hoping to find any updates on how he's feeling and how the DBS treatment is going. I also use a Neurstimulator (housed in my back) but it's for pain control and for my bladder (Interstitial Cystitis), there's definitely good days and not so good days. It's been interesting to learn how to live with it, listen to how my body responds, and figuring out the happy place with the voltage and frequency. I use humor as a way to cope and have any had many surgeries including top and bottom jaw surgery (cadaver bone, plates, screws implanted) so I always joke that I'm a cyborg (like RoboCop) with the Neurstimulator and my metal face. Lastly, I signed a pledge at tourettepledge.org/ in honor of Trevor. I've never used TS as a punchline or slur but I recognize signing the pledge is a way to show support and raise awareness. I have a feeling Trevor is going places in life and will continue to make an impact on people. -M

Tourettes is a living nightmare. I can control mine better than his most of the time but one of my tics is to basically slam my teeth togethet so my dental situation has been paninful at times.

I love how calm and chilled out about it, it's so inspiring bc it shows me that it's okay to be different

The fact that he hasn't gotten so annoyed that he just shaves his head is amazing

I have Tourette’s too and we are just like any other person it’s just our body can sometimes take control over our brain to make us do certain movements or noises. Sadly that can sometimes lead to bullying. Some people are judge mental when they see us but we are actually a nice person inside it’s just the only thing different about us is what we do with our body. I was bullied in about 2nd grade all the way up to middle school and now I have anxiety and trust issues. It’s very sad how some people treat other people who have differences. I am very surprised on how this guy can talk to people about his Tourette’s. I don’t like talking about my Tourette’s but this guy is so confident and kind. Bless his heart ❤️

I was diagnosed with Tourette’s when I was 7. I am 17 now and have a pretty similar case to his, and it hits very close to home when he talks about how tiring it can be to get through the day. I started playing guitar the year I was diagnosed and now I am a guitar instructor at the music store where I took lessons, and I have the exact same office where my instructor taught. Tourette’s is an obstacle, but it will not stop you from being all you can be. You rise above and overcome, and learn to work with your tics rather than trying to suppress them or get rid of them. Much respect to this badass for all he has learned to live with💪

God he looks like a model doing a shoot when they show his tourettes in slow motion. Beautiful cinematography 0:20

If I have to smoke I only take like half a lungful & only retain it to the count of 3. The gummies I cut n2 quarters. I have found that most people totally overdose on marijuana. Most of the negative side effects r due to overdose. Getting lazy & stupid means TOO MUCH. I've gotten alot of people to try only using a tiny amount compared to their usual & they r always shocked at the difference. In appropriate doses, it has mild stimulant properties. Makes u feel motivated & improves concentration which is practically the opposite of a overdose effect. U may find that the CBD part without the THC part of pot would help with your Tourettes better. The THC is the part that gets u "high" but the CBDs r what have medicinal properties for things like seizures. Unfortunately, there's alot of CBD products out there now & MANY r garbage. If u try it, b sure to do some research & find a quality one. I bet the right stuff would make a drastic difference n ur ticks. CBD is being used to completely STOP seizures n people with very bad epilepsy. Good Luck! 👍😊
