I'm Cherrie and I've had Tourettes Syndrome since I was about 7yrs old. I've had a wonderful array of vocal and physical tics over the past 25 years. Growing up my mom used to tell me my tics were a 'habit' and to stop doing it. Of course we all know asking someone with TS to just stop ticing is like saying don't blink; it's not gonna happen no matter how hard you try!!
I JUST got officially diagnosed with TS this year but I've always known I had it. Back in the early/mid eighties they had no clue what was wrong with me.
I'm very happy to be a part of this group and hope to talk with you all soon
Cherrie
