How to handle tics you might find uncomfortable. 🧵

#Tourettes #tics
An honest reality of having tics is that they can be uncomfortable and painful. But, it can also be difficult for others to know how to respond to some of these tics.

It’s important we address this if our goal is to better support people with tics and those who care about us…
1. Self-reflection.

First-and-foremost, it’s important to be aware of any thoughts or feelings that come up for you when witnessing uncomfortable tics.

E.g., are you getting impatient, upset, worried, or angry?

It’s important to first acknowledge what’s going on with you.

What this survey doesn’t tell you— is the huge “hidden waiting lists” with children waiting years for an assessment of a neurodevelopmental condition #ADHD #Learning #Tics #ASD
Many children also have underlying genetics and/or medical conditions, educational and social needs— and hence their emotional wellbeing deteriorated whilst waiting on the list..

We need a real reflection of the situation on the ground, which is becoming untenable post pandemic..

COVID-19 se consideró principalmente enfermedad pulmonar con manifestaciones extrapulmonares. A medida que se propagó la pandemia, hay creciente evidencia de que la enfermedad afecta a varios órganos/sistemas, incluidos los sistemas nerviosos central y periférico.
La acumulación de datos clínicos demuestra que, en una gran población de sobrevivientes, las deficiencias en la función de uno o más órganos pueden persistir durante mucho tiempo, un fenómeno comúnmente conocido como post COVID o COVID prolongado.

A few points on this:

1. When views are expressed that Tourettic people would be "too ashamed" to show our #tics online, & if we do we're "showing off" & don't represent what real TS looks like, there needs to be accountability. Ideally, by the speaker and your organisation.
2. While I appreciate finally receiving a response from the TAA regarding this issue, you have still not condemned this viewpoint, & it's unclear whether you agree with it or not.

3. What is clear, is the TAA has provided a platform for these views to be disseminated publicly.
4. Despite receiving clear and warranted criticism by the TS community in response to these views, the video still remains on the TAAs YouTube channel with no disclaimer or acknowledgment of the harm they may cause.

terceiro banco europeu, o @DeutscheBank começa a demitir 18.000 funcionários [20% do total], faz contas pra economizar €17 BILHÕES até 2022 e investirá [os mesmos?] €17 BILHÕES em #TICs e #transformação #digital até 2022: bit.ly/2YGQc1d. o digital tá atrasado, e muito.
em muitos casos, e especialmente em organizações muito grandes e [por suposição] muito estáveis e seguras, as lideranças DEMORAM demais a REAGIR ao novo contexto competitivo e AINDA MAIS a antecipar o FUTURO. esse parece ser um caso típico onde, no fim, as #PESSOAS saem perdendo.
um #BANCO é #VIRTUAL em essência. sistemas processando #INFORMAÇÃO para outros sistemas. dependendo de quem você ouvir, algo em entre 30% [bloom.bg/2xENugw] e 50% [bayareane.ws/30kvYdV] de todos os postos de #TRABALHO do setor vão desaparecer nos próximos anos. radical.

En @MovCiudadanoMX decimos SÍ a las consultas, pero con reglas claras, apegadas al marco constitucional. Por eso @in_dei presentó una iniciativa que reforma los numerales 3, 4 y 5 de la fracción VIII, del artículo 35 constitucional, en materia de #ConsultaPopular.
Nuestra iniciativa busca que la #ConsultaPopular sea un derecho ciudadano, que permita empoderar y potenciar la participación de la sociedad. Para ello propusimos las siguientes medidas:
1) Disminuir el porcentaje requerido para iniciar una consulta por parte de la ciudadanía del 2% al .25% de los inscritos en la lista nominal de electores. 2) Incluir el gasto público y los egresos del Estado como tema de trascendencia nacional, sujeto a la #ConsultaPopular.
