New Tic Alert!

Friday, January 30, 2026

Story time! It's not often I get to do these anymore, even though this is originally why I started the blog. I wanted to record and remember fun stories about my Tourette syndrome. But apparently, Paula and I have found a groove and lately I don't seem to notice them as much.

But new tics are certainly memorable. 

My husband and I have been binge watching the original Addams Family TV show from the 60's, which has been so much fun. And one of the most fun parts of my Tourette syndrome is the fact that I have echolalia and tend to repeat sounds that I hear. Especially if they are frequent. 

Like certain characters on the Addams Family, namely, Cousin Itt.

Which has also sparked something new. Paula has often had control over my mouth and the noises coming out of it, but in order to imitate this particular sound, she has suddenly taken control of my tongue. Which is a really weird feeling. 

Anyway, today is short and sweet, but I wanted to at least record this new phenomenon and share the hilarity of it.
