    I’ve met a couple of people with tourettes, but none of them swore, just siezed up or did a loud scream. How usual is it for people with tourettes to swear instead of the non-verbal kind?

      How usual is the swearing type of tourettes? Fairly rare. Most of us just squeek, grunt, and have minor muscle spasms.

      Without cannabis, I turn into a squeaky mother fucker lol

        Makes me wonder about a guy I knew about a decade ago who would dab like its a nervous tick. Learned from a friend who went on a date with him that he did so even more often after a few drinks
