Billie Eilish Gets Candid About Tourette Syndrome

Billie Eilish spoke candidly with Ellen about living with Tourette Syndrome, and why she decided to go public with it only last year. Plus, the 17-year-old pop star talked about celebrities like Paul McCartney and Sporty Spice, who she couldn’t believe were fans of hers.

Top things I wish people would know about Tourette: 1 - It's extremely difficult to control it (and you can only do so for some time), so it's not a a matter of will, 2 - you don't have curse to have it, 3 - it's a neurological problem and not a psycological one. So you don't get it because you have problems in life.

[@honorable_cadence]

Coprolalia, could be additional when it comes to Tourettes 10-20% of the people with Tourettes have it. Coprolalia basically means a reparative use of obscene language. as a symptom of mental illness or organic brain disease. And “ You dont have to curse to have it “ doesn’t necessarily make sense either... so.

[@jsierra-fx5fq]

I have Tourettes and here is my experience: You can control it but you need training and therapy

[@skye738]

As someone with tic disorder, I think it’s really cool that she’s so open about it.

She's 18

[@marksavin5778]

​@@ember_street Very pedantic!! Sure as of 4 days ago but regardless of that she was only 17 when the interview was recorded!

Mark Savin sHe’S 18

[@btstrasharmyexo-lbaekiesha2776]

Mark Savin then you should use ‘was only 17 in this interview’ bc the fact us she IS 18 now so when you say she IS 17 that’s wrong bc she’s not

[@loveislove2359]

Probably because she was home schooled by a loving mother.

[@laurataylor3159]

She's so real. And it's great that she's so honest and uses her platform to help others be real. We all have something and society is the only thing that puts shame or fear behind our something. I love you Billy xo

One of the best things about celebrities is that they help bring awareness to everyone, even the small town kid that thought there was something wrong with them and didn't know where to look for support gets to see a very successful person talk about how they go through the same struggles

[@crackeduptv8815]

When you're a teenager, Tourettes Syndrome is much worse. I have Tourettes Syndrome and deal with it on a daily basis and as a teenager, it's so much worse. It starts to calm down once you've reached full adulthood after puberty which is what I've heard. I'm very surprised she's able to keep it in most of time especially since she's only seventeen. Regardless, I'm very proud that she's dealing with it so well.

[@kimberlymorningstar8628]

It does calm down quite a bit after puberty. My son has Tourette's.

[@PersianPlatypus]

I have Tourette's, and if anything, it's gotten worse as I've become an adult. I'm 22 now and it seems worse now than it was when I was a teenager. A lot of factors can contribute to ticing more or less, so its hard to say since Tourette's is SO different person to person.

[@Everleades]

I don’t technically have Tourette’s I’ve got a chronic motor tic disorder (so pretty similar) and as I’ve gotten older I’ve gotten worse.

[@adrianabayer8288]

Everleade same here. Except, I’m almost 40.

i recently started having a loTTT of tics due to stress and anxiety and I just needed to hear this part where ellen says “that’s just part of you”. Billie makes it seem so normal and that really helps in times where you feel like the most abnormal person ever bc they’ve started to get worse and I fear they might never go away
