- What are the best fidget/sensory toys?In General Discussion25 January 2024I love the beads you put both sides of the string through opposite sides and when you tie it off it slides. I made mine with elastic string and chewy beads. I usually keep it on my lanyard that I wear at school for a club called yellow tulip project to make the members visible but I put that loops and a little two pop it thing. I attached a photo of mine and some instructions.12

- How to deal with people being rude at school.In Tourette's Discussion12 December 2023That's so awful! I am so sorry to hear that you are going through that! 😥 I went through hell also in school I was constantly bullied everyday for just being different and having ADHD. The best advice I can give you is to get tough and also get creative with how you respond to these bullies for example you can tell them that your tics are actually a demon that lives inside you that is trying to get out so they better stop poking at it lmao🤣. Trust me they will back off and leave you alone after hearing some crazy stuff like that lol 😂12

- OCD with ticsIn Neurodivergent Corner!·3 March 2024(My native language is not English, I'm sorry in advance for any mistakes if there are any) It would be interesting to hear the stories of people who have OCD and tics combined. My tics, when they get worse, are very similar to Tourette's syndrome, and a couple of doctors even suspected this syndrome in me (I just have mixed tics, but no tourette‘s). God, on the one hand, it's not easy when there are very strong tics for several months, and at other times obsessions and compulsions are exhausting. And they are constantly replacing each other. In addition, I have very big problems in the social sphere (I even took tests for autism, high results everywhere. Besides, it's much easier for me to communicate with such people than with those who are called "normal"). Is anyone familiar with this? How do you make your life easier? 😄 P.S. My OCD and tics were diagnosed by a doctor1293

- mobility aids?In Disability FAQs·1 February 2024hi! i was wondering, what kind of things qualify you for a mobility aid? i have pots and a whole plethora of diagnosed physical+mental conditions, and lately flare ups have been much more severe and frequent. i often have trouble getting out of bed because of fainting after standing, and throughout the day will have lots of difficulty sinply existing; standing, walking up/down stairs, etc., and its gotten to the point where i've began to consider using a mobility aid. however, there's a few questions/setbacks. 1. i'm not sure how to pick the mobility aid i need. how do i go about figuring out whats best for my disability/life style? 2. unfortunately, i am under 18 so i'm still living with my parents, and they don't like the idea of a mobility aid. i've been diagnosed with a number of conditions, and all they seem to do is tell me to drink more water. how would i convince them that this is a worthwhile alternative to days of pain, especially if that pain isn't cared for or acknowledged by them? 3. many of the places i go often are not very accessible/disability friendly, any tips for getting around more smoothly? 4. and 4, how do i get over the anxiety surrounding using a mobility aid? i fear that showing up to school with a mobility aid would attract a lot of unwanted attention, especially considering the fact that i would be thr only person with one in the ~2000 kid school. especially with my social anxiety, i worry about being a burden for others and i often put my own health at risk for social comfort, and i'm not sure how to stop that.12117

- are loop earplugs worth it?In General Discussion7 March 2025I wear mine every day and they've really helped. I wear them in the canteen because if you're from the UK and in secondary you'll understand(lol). If the projectors loud then I wear them so I can concentrate more on my work and it actually helps! They are normally quite expensive but I think my mum got mine off amazon and got my sister some knock off ones that do exactly the same. I would discuss getting them with whomever you trust or live with and see if they can help and support you. Hope this helps!12
