A lot of people get put in as a tic disorder.

This is just from personal research.

A lot of people say they have a tic disorder if you've not had anything as a child or anything like that.

And you've also got another disorder called FND, which is functional neurological disorder, which can just happen randomly.

A lot of people have developed that, and I found this out online as well, a lot of people have developed that since COVID.

So there's been a lot of cases of FND, which a lot of people have seizures, they'll have functional tics.

So, but yeah, with Tourette's, you have to have, you get born with a gene.

That's what the doctors have told me, but I've actually had a genetic test, and I don't know if you can physically get a genetic test done or not, because I don't know whether they know exactly which gene it is, but they just said, that's what I got told by a neurologist, you're just born with it.

And sometimes something can trigger it.

Right.

Well, I was born in, you can probably guess my accent, not over here.

I was born in England, Norwich.

So I don't know if you know Norwich.

Yeah.

It's on the east coast.

So... You're an English culture, basically.

Basically, yes.

So I actually, well, I was born in the country, well, I was born in Norwich, but I lived in the countryside.

So growing up in school, loved school.

One of the very few kids that probably did love school.
