Tourette's is bullcrap..

[Haku_Honjo]

Makes me so mad when i wanna go to sleep and can't sometimes.

EDIT: Please lock my topic. I do not want a flame war and would rather just have it closed.

Wouldn't that be insomnia not tourettes? And also is consistant tweaking/ twitching classified as tourette's? I do that and I'm not sure if its that or just I have too much energy and my body twitches as a natural way to get rid of it :P

[Fullmetal]

If you shout out curse words randomly could you tape it for us?

[Haku_Honjo]

I can see this is going to go down hill in a flaming barrel full of dynamite. Nip it in the bud before it becomes a real issue, one more request for just closing the thread. I really don't want people to get in trouble for being insensitive.

Huh? You lost me there bud heh

[Fullmetal]

Huh? You lost me there bud heh

What I'm saying is:
If I read what you said correctly,that diseases will grow faster than technology?
If so,then god made us solely because he's a sadist and enjoys seeing his creations harmed.Therefore,he needs entertainment.He needs to see us die.

But hell,I was just trying to make a joke,I don't even believe in god.

Ah. >_> Btw what is tourette's exactly? I psychological disease, a neural disease...? I've never really looked into :\

[Haku_Honjo]

Its genetic and i'm pretty sure its a nural disorder. As in sometimes things missfire or i assume overload? I'm not a scientist tho.

I'm gonna go lay down and watch a dvd now. More chance of falling asleep that way than sitting at my computer.

Yeah, its just morbid curiosity. I have a 14 minute montage of this tourettes guy in random situations. As crude as it is, really, I find it mildly hilarious.

this guy?

yeah he died awhile ago

I'm surprised this thread made it to page 3 without someone posting this...

[fattymac21]

Right about now, I'm being serious and curious, but um,

can Tourettes affect how you type?

[Jakuza]

Yeah, I think he died in 2007?

[Azn_King]

I remember watching this video on TLC once about it....

If I remember correctly there is actually a device you can get surgically implanted into your brain the sends electric signals to it that effectively cease, or greatly lower, the effects of the disease.

Kind of like a pace maker.

I remember that. It was a 35 or something year old guy right? He had it bad, his whole head and torso would fly forward. His err... Swings decreased like 300-400 less a week? He only had like 40 a day, that's amazing.
