Hi, I have a question.. For many years now I have had episodes of dissociation of which sometimes I am aware that I am in an episode, but many times I do not realize until after someone asks me what happened to me? And I would like to know, how can I differentiate if what I have is dissociative identity disorder or a non-epileptic seizure, or something else?.. I almost forgot to mention that many times a day I usually have spasms that I don't know what they are due to. Thanks so much for reading! 🌻

Hello! (Just want to say that my tics have only present for a bit over three months.) One time my friend tried to give me a tic which was really frustrating and I don't know what to say if people do this, (same friend also one time asked, "What if your just faking all of this?") But also how you deal with people teasing you at school. Some kids at school were mocking one of my tics and laughing right in front of me in my math class. I kind of just hid in the bathroom for 5 minutes and never ended up telling my teacher. I didn't know how to tell my teacher as it hasn't happened since. I know I should tell one of the teachers, and they should know why thats not ok. How do I deal with this if it happens in the future? (This happened over a month ago so I don't know what to do, sorry.) (Sorry this whole paragraph is very confusing and hard to read-)

Is anybody else in high school (or maybe middle school) who has Tourette's and can give me some tips? Most of the people around me have no idea that I have Tourette's, and I have no idea how to tell them. My teachers know, but I can't exactly go to that one kid across from me in English who just never shuts up and tell him that I have tics. It's so loud and embarrassing. Please help!!!
