This video is about Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is a neurogical disorder that causes unwanted obsessions (thoughts) and compulsions (behaviors). Many other comorbid disorders of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder are Tourette Syndrome, learning disablities such as dyslexia, depression, eating disorders, etc.
Many people who have Tourette Syndrome also have OCD. So some people may experience tics with their OCD, and some people with Tourette Syndrome may experience OCD along with their disorder.
Also, many people who have OCD have also had depression, eating disorders, and learning disabilities before.
