Description

Tourette Syndrome - The Ticcer's Guide is a handbook to support those living with Tourette Syndrome and their families. The book contains twenty informative chapters, covering topics such as the conditions that cause tics, management strategies, dealing with Tourette's in public, co-occurring conditions, rage attacks and how Tourette's can impact a person's identity. The book provides advice on how to educate the school on TS, how to accept your condition or help your child accept themselves, and also contains information on Tourette's in the workplace. The book also includes pages of information on PANDAS and PANS, which are conditions which can look very similar to Tourette's and therefore are often misdiagnosed as such. The book explains why it is important to distinguish between Tourette Syndrome, PANDAS/PANS, and FND. Chapters include: Chapter One: Conditions That Cause Tics Chapter Two: Types Of Tics Chapter Three: Management Strategies (includes both conventional and alternative / natural) Chapter Four: Tic Suppression (why it is harmful) Chapter Five: Co-occurring Conditions (including ADHD, SPD, and other less recognised conditions) Chapter Six: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Chapter Seven: PANDAS/PANS Chapter Eight: Rage Attacks Chapter Nine: Tourette's Throughout The Lifespan Chapter Ten: Coping With Tourette's in School Chapter Eleven: Tourette's In Public Chapter Twelve: Empowerment and Community Chapter Thirteen: Tourette's and Mental Health Chapter Fourteen: Tics Through The Seasons Chapter Fifteen: Why Are Symptoms More Prominent In Certain Environments? Chapter Sixteen: Tourette's and Identity Chapter Seventeen: Tourette's In The Workplace Chapter Eighteen: "Mild" vs Severe Cases Chapter Nineteen: Advocacy / Activism Chapter Twenty: Final Thoughts The book aims to empower Tourettic people, allow Ticcers' to accept themselves, and find management strategies that help.
