    Anyone seen the documentary HBO made about the turrets syndrome? it was funny, and sad - seriously. It had a bunch of kids on there telling how they live with turrets and how they get ignored and picked on and shiet...they have some wiiiierd ass kids in that documentary, everyone should go see this....

    this one kid at my brothers school has tourette's, and he would randomly hit himself. he would also hit someone else, and blame it on my bro. he would also make random sounds, and "grope" girls. everytime he got in trouble, he would blame his tourette's. that's kinda sad! he ended getting expelled.

    btw- it's spelled tourette's!

    I'll have to look for that documentary to watch it. Oh and isn't it true that tourette's syndrome actually causes you to yell random things, not always swear ? Also, i didn't know they hit themselves... :huh:

    if you ever come across a dvd or vhs called jonny's not mad. then buy it. ITs a documentery made in th 70's before tourettes was really well known . Absolute awesome.
