Your brain

[heastrParticipant]

With tourettes my brain is playing tricks on me, it is very easy to mistake anxiety for it, I had this ocd theme sińce I was kid, but the more I was trying not to be interested the opposite happened, if I look at something it triggers physical reactions. Which means that I don’t desire them and don’t know what to do.
