The easiest thing to do is to accuse a child of being impolite and not learning good behavior, perhaps because he throws a little hit his classmate without realizing, or perhaps because his tongue quickly throws insults, or because he never pays attention to his movements, and gives him reactions Not suitable.
However, perhaps we should not rush to judge children, it is possible that one of them is not doing all this on purpose, but because he has Tourette's syndrome and does not know.
Salma Khaled is a 14-year-old girl, to start a new chapter in her life, when she discovers after a while that the chills that began to attack her suddenly and unjustifiably are Tourette's syndrome, which will remain with her to the end of her life without hope of ending it or reducing her sudden attacks.
After years of changing the degree of goosebumps to various bouts of disturbances, both motor and speech, Salma, who became 21 years old, discovered that Tourette's is a neurological disease that often appears in childhood, and its cause is mostly genetic that causes a person to do surprising things without control, whether Whether these things are sound phenomena or kinetic phenomena, they are called TICS.
Salma has suffered over the course of 7 years from those sounds that come out against her will, such as repeated words on her ears, or words that do not mean anything, or just a high voice that causes her a lot of ridicule and pain.
What Salma suffered most from throughout her life with Tourette Syndrome, is not only the difficulty of discovering, but also the difficulty of telling people what this syndrome does and explaining its symptoms to them, and how she needs to apologize dozens of times every day when she meets new people, who do not know what she is going through, Likewise, the pain of encountering dozens of sarcastic looks that say to her, “Hold yourself a little,” or even the pity that echoes the word “Godless”;
For this reason, Salma decided to go out into the world in a video explaining "Tourette Syndrome", and what it is like to have a day outside the house when she decides to go out for a very ordinary family outing.
Salma's video was a reference to many patients with this syndrome to announce their suffering with Tourette, whether the syndrome has motor or verbal phenomena, and many wondered about its symptoms and how to discover it, which was answered by the American National Institute of Neurosciences, in a study on Tourette.
Scientists have determined that the spasms associated with the syndrome ranged from severe to mild, and in Tourette’s motor spasms, these spasms are often mild to moderate, for example, in the shoulders shaking, the head shaking with the shoulders, or the head tilt and jaw movement, all of which are non-continuous momentary movements, But it can't be controlled at all and a person with this syndrome can't stop it.
As for Tourette's syndrome with vocal spasms, as in the case of "Selma", it includes simple involuntary spasms that affect the throat, such as sniffing, barking, or snoring. Obscenity is within the circle of injury, but the attempt to control the syndrome, if it succeeds in some cases - as indicated by the American National Institute of Neuroscience - causes more stress that worsens the situation in the long run.
Tourette's syndrome is diagnosed before the age of 18, when these seizures occur more than once a day, and measured over an entire year. Other neurological diseases.
Tourette's needs physicians who specialize in micro-neurological diseases, so it may take longer than usual for Tourette's diagnosis to be made for other types of disease, and thus the patient's suffering increases.
Tourette's can never be cured except with very precise brain surgery, doctors told Salma Khaled, or with a treatment that only suppresses symptoms, but causes other side effects that are just as bad as Tourette's spasms.
