After seeing a tv show 'The Doctors' showing a teenage boy with tourettes convinced i have it. For days now i have spent hours each night researching touretts to see if i have it and im still certain i have. I have spoken to friends about it but haven't get had the guts to talk to my mum. I don't understand why she hasn't noticed my tics or odd behaviors this makes me think maybe im just paranoid. I really have to talk to her about it though, its making me frustrated and i need help with the tics and they way i repeat something until its perfect. I'm finding it hard for me to talk about it with her because i'm afraid she won't believe me and think i'm attention seeking when i really am not. Please help me on finding a way to open up to her about this or a way to make her believe me if i tell her. I will really appreciate help. Thanks for taking your time to read this.
