▲ 3 r/Tourettes
Most of my close friends know about my tourettes and they are cool with it. However, when we are together and I have tics I notice them noticing. Sometimes they get uncomfortable, mostly they feel the need to comment about it or make a joke about it. Not a mean joke. I joke about it too. Idk it's probably just our coping mechanism and it's fine but sometimes when a tic really hurts (like one with my eyes) and they joke I just have to fake laugh along with them. Does anyone have any advice on this? I wish they would just ignore it but telling them to do so will make it more tense.
