The Human Aspect of Mohammed

When my fear of my tics had grown larger than the actual tics, I had panic attacks every day. Growing up my tics got more and more visible and with it, the bullying grew. Moving into my adult years my Tourettes had become a natural part of me, but anxiety and depression started taking their toll. I felt shameful and lonely to the point where I struggled to find energy in anything in life.
