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!

[@averyjb123]

having tics in a classroom can be especially difficult when there is a substitute teacher. my teacher is extremely respectful and if im having a really bad tic attack she always helps me through it. one time she was out sick and there was an extremely rude substitute. i cursed her out because cursing is one of my tics along with the middle finger, she did not take that well and started going off on me and the entire class could hear. a student tried to explain my tics to her, but she wouldn't listen and sent me to the office. even the office tried to explain to her that i just had tourettes syndrome and she still wouldnt listen. lets just say she got in quite a bit of trouble after school that day. just a friendly reminder to not let anyone judge you for what you can and cannot control.

[@avawhiteley2658]

I've been diagnosed with tourettes meaning I've had then for more than two years for sure (times fuzzy and I can't remember the exact time tbh) and I have "tic breaks" in a private environment outside of class and use fidget toys. The worse part personally is the people. My teachers are educated but have mistakenly pointed them out and my peers aren't very nice about it. They don't know I have tourettes but openly make fun of it with eachother. School starts soon (August 31st) and I'm quite scared. Seeing others with Tourettes really helps so I'd like to thank you! Hope you have a lovely day/night!

[@Zara_Beth]

organise a meeting with staff and parents if you can, then they can be properly educated in a more formal setting and be told the medical facts backing up what support you need 💕 if you're in the UK, tourettes action can offer to come into your school and do a talk for you, educating the staff on Tourettes

[@avawhiteley2658]

@@Zara_Beth That's kinda what we do. My therapist who works very closely with Tourettes said she's going to help throughout the year if needed. A counselor does the talks with the staff, but only my teachers I assume because substitutes never seem to know which can be stressful. I also have a "504 Plan" that has my accommodations. It's a legal document and teachers aren't allowed to break it but of course they have. I've wanted to get an actual Tourettes group or something to go in and explain it for the longest time, but I've always been kinda dismissed. Luckily as I said my therapist is very on my side and ready to help if the school is being stupid lol

[@chaerinsistas1935]

There's a boy in my class, and I remember how confused I was when he started grunting/breathing loudly and sniffing. At first, I thought he was watching something funny and laughing, so I looked over at him and saw that he was just quietly doing his work. The next few days, he did similar things and I was wondering what was going on. Later on, I got to know him pretty well and he mentioned his tics in one of our conversations, and even openly shared to the class that he has tourettes. I'm not at all fazed by the fact that he has that condition, and it doesn't lessen my opinion of him at all. If anything, I think he's a really brave and strong guy for being able to socialize so freely even with his disorder.

[@MissTalina]

random question, do you ever pick up on or unconsciously start mimicking her tics? My brother had tourettes growing up (he's mostly grown out of it as an adult) but growing up, I was diagnosed with pretty severe ADHD as a kid, and as an adult I was diagnosed with comorbid Autism, but my brother had a LOT of vocal tics when we were kids and his most common was clearing his throat. I would get yelled at a lot by my parents for "copying" his tics but it was like, once I heard him do it the third time in a row, I involuntarily started clearing my throat too and COULDN'T stop. I tried to explain to my parents that I wasn't doing it for attention but I think it always came across as them perceiving me as copying bad behaviour to receive equal attention from them. I've never met any other sibling pairs who had an ADHD/TS combo in the family and I was just wondering if anyone else had the same problem with "compulsive assimilation" to other ND kids' actions.

I don't have Tourette's but I've had tics since I was 5 (over 10 years). My anxiety makes me suppress my tics whenever I'm in a public place (and they end up being much more severe later). Ty for this video! 😀 It helped me to re-enforce the knowledge that others struggle with tics and that it's not just me. 😊😊

[@cookiequeen5430]

Hey, I don't know a lot about tics. What's the difference between having tourettes and "just" having tics?

[@rileykate37]

@@cookiequeen5430 So the Google answer was this: "Tics are defined as sudden, rapid, recurrent, nonrhythmic motor movements or vocalization, generally preceded by urge. Tourette's syndrome is defined as the presence of both motor and phonic tics for more than 1 year in patients with onset less than 18 years old." TL;DR - tics are involuntary movements, while Tourette's is a syndrome (and tics are a symptom). I've had bad tics since I was 5 (for example, harshly jerking my head forward, flaring my nose, raising my eyebrows as high as they can go, etc.), but have never been diagnosed with Tourette's. I don't know for sure if I have it or not, but right now I'm going with not. I just say I have really bad tics. Hopefully this helped! 😁If you have any more questions, I can try and answer them for you!

This is very interesting. Most tics are usually a few repetitive things at a time that a person subconsciously gets fixated on, the tics you are showing are completely different things at random, not a consistent repetitive fixation as expressed with most common tics.

As a person who struggles with violent tics it’s so interesting to learn that some tics can be gentle

[@elementarystemwithms.crosm5345]

My son had a tic disorder for about 6-7 months as part of his PANDAS flare-up. He was in kindergarten. I remember a few teachers I work with thinking he was faking it . . . at 6! I explained that I was terrified he'd choke because his verbal tics would happen even when he was trying to swallow. He also couldn't pick anything up until he'd done some fluttering with his hands. He developed OCD and also needed to use the bathroom every 20 minutes. It went on all day, every day. Once he got diagnosed with PANDAS and put on antibiotics, all his symptoms completely disappeared within 48 hours. I got a doctor who understood PANDAS and knows to put him on antibiotics the second they start up again, and 9 years later he hasn't had another large episode like that. I really feel for you going through this long-haul. I hope someday they find a cure for Tourette's. Thank you for educating us all with your videos.

Her class clearly doesn’t mind, and if you have every watched her videos, you would know they are perfectly fine with having a student with Tourette Syndrome in their class. Also, nobody said its ableist to admit those things, you’re just another person speaking of things you hardly know about in an attempt to “be different.”

[@emxilyk]

@@Therian_Paws_ Do you actually think anyone would admit to being bothered, knowing fully well that their classmate is documenting everything and thus would share this information with the whole internet? You've also clearly never have had a classmate whose neurodivergency included very obvious/externally visibly symptoms and it shows.

[@Therian_Paws_]

@@emxilyk Actually, I am the classmate who displays very visible symptoms. People with Tourette’s understand that it bother, and those people are not afraid to speak about it because there is nothing wrong about getting stressed out. Maybe shut up and actually learn something, quit babbling on about nonsense.

[@Sw33tGabs]

You’re thinking of the classmate but not how she is. She struggles and can not control her tics so it’s not her fault

[@EMILY.S_32299]

I love her so much but I've never Commented on one of her videos saying how much I love her And I pray for you that your ticks get better

I love how before anyone can comment u have to agree to be kind that’s really the best idea ever ur beautiful inside and out!

[@Nora-i9t]

I guess have something like this… I have sort of learned to stop, (the way I cope isn’t very good for me but it helps) I bite my skin and nails until I bleed, but I used to lick my hands, make random noises during school and the teacher would yell at me but I couldn’t help it, and I would get random shocks at a random time at the day like someone just punched me, it’s been getting better thank god but it’s really hard when teachers need us to be quiet… I hope you all have an amazing day and love each other ❤❤❤

When i told my German teacher i had a tic disorder she called my mom to ask what to do if i insulted her in class 😭😭 So i took time to explain to her i don't have coprolalia and it's mostly abrupt movements that harm myself and people near me She didn't really understand but she was okay with it as long as i didn't insult her I can't even imagine how bad it would be with coprolalia

[@elhenwhe]

@@dantessa true gl with coprolalia

[@Therian_Paws_]

I have coprolalia and I’ve cussed out my teachers before. They are very understanding and help me through it. Its very difficult though, especially in public spaces.

[@Justagirlandstarbucks]

I love how patient the person next to her is ❤

[@crystalmoonlight1154]

My friend has been recently diagnosed with turrets the tics that she has she finds really funny but has 2 painful ones one is smacking her hand against the table so when we sit together I put my hand between hers and the table so it doesn’t get hurt
