Reaally hard, I can hold them back for about 20 seconds but it will just build up and make it 10x worse. It's like this unpleasant urge I get under my skin that feels like a weird tingly buzzy sorta feeling. It's super hard to explain, but you know when you're having a staring contest with someone and your eyes start start screaming at you to close them and blink? It feels almost exactly like that, but all over my body, all the time haha

I haven't experienced a single negative impact since the day I started using it, it's been nothing but positive! There's no way I could live without it now. I would never want to go back to the way it was before. Without it I couldn't sleep, I couldn't work, go to school, drive, at one point it got so bad I could barely even eat or drink without knocking everything over in the process. Now I can do all that with no problem and people I meet daily would never even guess I have Tourettes at all. I passed my driving test without a single minor strike whereas before my tics were a serious safety hazard. My friends and family can't believe the change it's had on me, it's something we never thought was possible and I wish I knew about it much sooner!

Yeah exactly! The sleeping is the worst part about it, I can live with the tics and all the rest during the day but when it effects my sleep it destroys everything. I couldn't function like a normal person and even had to be home schooled for my final year of high school because I couldn't get out of bed. I would tic all through the night so I could never fall into a deep sleep and would always be half awake. It was horrible and that's the side of tourettes no one really knows or thinks about

I take it at night before I go to bed so when I wake up the next day I'm completely sober but its CBD effects are still preventing my tics from coming through, so its safe for me to drive :) If I was caught with a roadside drug test though i'd lose my license and probably get a criminal record. I just have to be extremely careful.

They happen constantly when i'm unconscious as well
