You can call it a disorder!

So a funny one-

My friends and I were deciding what to do.

Friend: What should we do today? Me: Idk? Swim? Frisbee? Movie? Friend: Idk, we could Me(out of the blue): F***!

Hahaha

Also, another awkward time was when i was in the theaters and in a very intense and quiet scene, I yelled out F*** and everybody just stared at me.... haha

Surprisingly, and oddly enough I do!

Nobody actually believes me so I never bring it up, but I do!

When I'm on the computer I always have to type "LOL, or lol!"

I really don't know why, but it's really annoying. And i don't have that tic verbally.

Also I have to press the space bar randomly sometimes, and sometimes I even have to write out "lol" on paper when I'm doing school work.

I'm not sure why I don't need to type out my verbal outbursts, just a completely different tic I believe.

Yes, Tim Howard does have it, and in fact I used part of his book in my talk! Anyways, there are levels to TS. TS can come in many different forms and is different in every single person. There are many common tics like facial expressions eye blinking eye rollling etc. and then there are more extreme ones.

For example, I have a swearing tic, and although it's commonly believed everyone with TS swears, only 10% of people with TS actually have those tics.

Back to Tim Howard, generally tics start to decrease or totally disappear after your puberty years and as you get older. Again, each person with TS is different and there's a chance that it won't get better, but more often than not it will decrease.

Tim Howard probably still has some tics now, but it's just been a lot less mild since he's much older now. Now I don't know if he's always had it a lot less than others, or if he had it bad in highschool and it's calmed down since then...

I hope I answered your question!

Yeah, my friends and I love to look back and laugh about things! Of course there are certain jokes that cross the line, but I'm definitely down with making jokes about it. Lightens the mood, and after all, it's funny to make fun of yourself sometimes! :)

That's a very interesting question, and first time ive heard this one!

I would totally keep my f*** one, it's so funny and amuses people.

I know a friend with a tic that makes him hug people. That tic sounds awesome! Well, there's a hot girl over there, hopefully I need to tic! :)
