I just wanted to share some information on a disorder I have. So please check it out.

Wow, you're the first person I've met (well, I saw you at city club anyway) that has Tourettes. You didn't seem to have any tics when I saw you there. Is it something that comes and goes? Just curious.

My Dad, uncle, and Brother have it...my Dad and Brother not nearly as bad as my uncle.

My Dad will make noises and is twitchy, and my brother has more twitching in the eyes and neck.

I have just learned to control it. I don't twitch or have body movements, my tourettes is vocal tics. I still make humming sounds or repeat names when I'm nervous, excited, and/or somewhere that I'm forced to be quiet such as a movie theater or the library.

MTV did a True Life show about Tourettes Syndrome and there was a documentary about it on either HBO or Showtime.
