Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder NOT a mental illness. Stop spreading incorrect information! This isn’t up for debate. You wouldn’t call epilepsy a mental illness, because it’s not.
This isn’t saying don’t support people with mental illness so don’t start that, because none of you care about tourettes to begin with besides to make jokes and inaccurate headcanons ….
Please reblog even if you don’t have TS, spread the word to you non ticcing friends.
I made this post in like 2016 and for some reason people are reblogging it again so I just want everyone to know I don’t speak like this anymore lmao. Despite the cringey 2016 Tumblr post format, this statement still stands and I wish people with antiquated ideas would stop commenting on this old ass post. Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder. If you would like to argue otherwise please read a medical journal first or skip me and talk straight to my neurologist because I’m sick of people @ ing me about being unable to comprehend a medical fact. thats all thanks!!!!
