FAQs ▹
1.What conditions do I have?
‣ I have Tourette's Syndrome, FND and suspected POTS
2. How tall are you?
‣ 5'4"
3. How old are you?
‣ 17
3. Am I in school?
‣ I'm currently studying art, music tech and English at college!
4. What is FND?
‣ fndhope.org/fnd-guide/
5. What is Tourette's?
‣ www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/tourette/f...
-------------------------------
Tourette's syndrome is a neurological condition and disability which causes involuntary movements called tics. I use my platforms on social media such as TikTok, KZbin and Instagram to advocate and raise awareness for the condition and show what it is like living with a disability as a teen in school.
My name is Zara Beth (zeezee25 on tiktok) and I post videos about tics, tic disorders and what its like to be a teen living with Tourette's syndrome, Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) and a seizure disorder (NEAD/NES).
I show what its like having tics and Tourettes in class and in school and college, vlog, and I also bake, do other challenges and answer all your questions in Q and A videos.
I am also an ambulatory wheelchair user so I show what life looks like using various mobility aids and how needs change from day to day!
I am also a musician! My newest release is my first single (original song) called "She's Mine" which is now available on all streaming services - I sing and play piano, guitar, ukulele and I write, produce, mix and master all my own songs and content myself!

Thank you for this, I’m trying to be less afraid of commenting so I answered what I could, but there’s just so many and ofc some questions can only be answered by you. Your shorts comments are getting wild and I ended up just responding to hate comments because they were ridiculous. One person even claimed to be a doctor which I hope isn’t true if they’re fakeclaiming disabled people🙄 Thank you for spreading awareness, despite the hate it really truly is helping people feel less alone and understand these disorders better.

Google is for sure recommending videos on my recent health related searches. Just came across your channel and I can relate, i'm in my 30's and my childhood tics have "reactivated" and it's very difficult to seek help or even talk about it with anyone that understands, I appreciate you putting yourself out there, it is for sure helping people cope and understand. I HATE "getting stuck" in a tic, it is the worst feeling :(

This makes me feel more comfortable about myself. I have Tourette’s and I have coprolalia and it makes me really embarrassed at school and I suppress them as I do have anxiety and all that makes it much worse. I have had it for a few years and is still trying to figure out ways to not trigger it as much or make sure that it isn’t as bad. Never suppress your tics people it makes it 10x worse. So yeah thank you so much for making these videos it makes me feel so mich better ❤

[@jorginagibson853]

Recently, I've been having really bad tics. I find that the more fatigued I am, the more severe or frequent they are. This makes it difficult for me to fall asleep. But I can agree with you when you say that just thinking of something really helps, as it occupies the brain. I like to make up little stories in my head with fictional characters from movies, books or TV series etc. and it personally really helps. But that might just work for me, as its different for everybody

[@jorginagibson853]

Your videos have given me a look into life and what it can be even with chronic illnesses and such. My dad says that he thinks you're a great person for me to be watching for both educative reasons and entertainment

[@Estarya]

Hi, I find your videos to be very interesting and informative, this doesn't have to be in a future QnA but I was wondering how you dealt with the fakeclaimers, and what do you recommend we do as a community to try and diminish their numbers? Obviously answering to hate always seems to bring more of it but would you rather we just ignore or signal every comment we see to YT? I wish you the best!

[@navenking8555]

[@LocallySuyu]

Zara! Can you tell me more abt your fainting condition? What its like,why you faint or how you know its coming?

[@salliexx7631]

Hey Zara x I was just wondering, if you’re feeling faint and you can’t get to a safe position quickly, when you fall would you feel pain after you come around? Ik it’s a bit of a stupid question but i just always think that xx love you and your videos about spreading awareness for Tourette’s and fnd and seizures

[@lukepippin4781]

You may answer this question later in the video, which I’m going to finish watching, but if not, does stress make tics worse? As someone on the autism spectrum, I do what we call stimming, especially when I’m stressed. I’m curious if those things are at all related. EDIT: You did pretty much answer the question. That makes the tics very relatable for me, even if it’s for a different reason. I’ve always found neurology behind all this kind of stuff and how different conditions can be sorta connected very interesting.

Love your content, and thanks so much for sharing 😊 I'm a behavioural scientist so I'm totally being educated here 🤓 One Q for you though, if you were to one day wake up and be free of Tourrettes and all FND, do you feel like you would miss it? ..like it's part of your identity, would you feel like you'd be losing a part of yourself?

[@stormbornking]

Hi, i love your video’s and hope you’re doing great! I was wondering; if you get a neck tic attack, what would happen if someone would just hold you and support your head so it wouldn’t be able to yank back?

[@Satopi3104]

Unrelated but I love your earrings!

[@justcallmejessz3712]

I have POTS so have fainted many of times lol. I think it's different for everyone but I used to be really good at knowing when it was time to get to the ground before I fell to it. A big sign for me was the changing of color I'm the spots. Like if it was white or grayish spots I could walk a bit and it may pass. Where as if things got colorful it was time to get down. NOW. Fainting in public can be embarrassing and frustrating. Those who know me have gotten used to it. But when it was really bad or I'm not with close friends/family. People panic. Not their fault. Obvs it's scary. But fainting in public and coming around and having to deal with EMS sucks!. I'm in a smaller ish area so it didn't take too long for EMS to just know me. They'd show up. Ask if I was okay. And believe me that I was. The thing with fainting is that the actual faint is not what's dangerous. It's the falling and bashing things on the way down. The best way I've found to describe it for me is kinda like when a computer freezes up so you just....unplug it and then plug it back in. Like a hard reset for my autonomic nervous system. ❤️

[@BubblesBear17]

I got tourettes too. Indeed, with a tic attack, it's usually best to ask the person what they need. I personally don't mind if some of my tics make you laugh (they make me laugh too a lot). I do actually prefer people just feeling free and laugh about them rather than being awkward about it. As long as you laugh about my tics and not about me😂😂 Away from that, indeed, with violent tics, keep your distance. We don't wanna hurt you and we feel bad if we do. Usually I do prefer if you just go on with your business while just keeping a loose eye on me to make sure I'm okay. Cause having all the attention on me isn't very comfortable while having a tic attack. Usually you'll see that I tend to try and go on my business too if I can. And there are times personally where I'll go and take a walk or something cause it helps to calm my tics down. Most of the time I'll wanna be alone doing that, so I prefer you respect that (it would surprise you how many people don't. They mean well. But it's annoying). Luckily my tics aren't nearly as bad anymore. And my tic attacks have also mellowed down a lot. Thanks for raising awareness to it. You seem like a really sweet girl❤❤
