This has nothing to do with self injury…..aside from the fact that I forgot my arm warmer! oh my goodness. But im covering some parts with annotations and most is not that noticeable because most of my scars on my arm are older and pale. If you think you will be triggered, dont watch this. But it barely shows.

This is about showing what my movement disorder is and what I deal with.
There is so little information out there about this kind of movement. It’s probably a tic disorder, but my movements dont look like the ones that are commonly described. I wish I could find a video with movements of this nature…..so…this is a video for those like me….this is a video about it for them

My appointment is Friday. Cross your fingers for me. ;)

I’m feeling really self conscious right now. I know I look like a defective freak. ;(

I’ve talked about this in another video. Here is the link if you wanna see

Tic

PLEASE don’t assume that i’m making this video as a way of getting more views/subscribers or that i’m making this seem worse than it is. I know that there are a lot of people who wouldn’t do that but there ARE a ton of who would start that kind of shit.
If you really want a reason i made this video to express my repressed feelings and thoughts through the only medium i can feel like i can communicate clearly through. Thank you.

A Day in The Life of OCD

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.

(As always, comments will only be posted with my approval.)

Do i have tourette syndrome

WHAT THE VIDEO SAYS/SUBTITLES :p :
so i might have tourettes…i’ve had uncontrollable tics since i was 6 yrs old & now i’m 16.
my tics (now): HEAD SHAKING, muscle tensing/restlessness(ocd), talking to myself/muttering, STUTTERING(inherited) & PICKING SCABS/LIPS (ocd).
i also show many signs of OCD and ADD (which sucks :P).
ive been doin lota research on this since 2 yrs ago wen i saw an episode of my fave show ’south park’ about tourettes.
a great episode cuz it told how tourettes isnt just a swearing tic, & raised awareness about tourettes syndrome :D. b4 i knew bout tourettes i didnt notice that what i was doing wasnt doing wasnt nornal lol.
also, i have metatarsus adductus- my feet go inward instead of outward when i walk & basically all the time.
what triggers my tics (esp head shaking, my newest one) are stress/confusion, being cold, tired, or wen im doing #2 (lol w/e).
even though my tics arent severe & i’m a quiet, “to myself”, (calm/chill) person, there have been times where my tics have been noticed.
unless people (like my family) just dont want to ALWAYS draw attention to it, or assume they’re jus habits that’ll go away.
so i looked up the 3 main types of tic disorders & i dont have transient tic disorder, i think that one only lasts for a year.
nor do i have chronic tic disorder because i have both motor and vocal tics.
if you have tourettes &/or kow alot about tic disorders/neurological disorders, plz reply & try answering my question…
do i have tourette syndrome?
i havent been diagnosed
cuz i havent told my family about this
( u can ask more questions to help if necessary)
:)

Movement Disorder: Myoclonus?

I am 19 years old and have been having movement problems every since I was 2. They have gradually gotten worse over the years. I have been diagnosed with Essential Tremor, Motor Tic Disorder, and Dystonia. I feel as though none of these cover what I experience. I believe it looks more like myoclonus. I do have a tremor not evident in this video though. If anyone has any suggestions as to what this may be please feel free to comment.
