So… Is it okay to fake my real tics?
I have two questions.
So this is confusing. I have suspected tourette’s. I’ve talked to doctors about it and the only thing stopping me from getting the diagnosis is a med that has an incredibly rare side effect of tics. It’s been observed before i started the med. But that’s not the point. I have tics. Whether they‘re caused by medicine or not they, suck. Is it okay for me to be on this subreddit? Doctors agree about me meeting all the qualifications for the diagnosis, but won’t give it to me on the off chance its not.
Second question: Can i fake my real tics to get things. My biggest tic is jerking my neck to the side repeatedl. It typically happens in groups (like five or six in a row, then rest for a minute). Sometimes I can have a good day where it’s happening a couple times an hour max. If i’m at an airport and not actively tickin, can i fake my tics to, for example preboard if they won’t let me?
