Tourette?s Disorder
Story:
Carl was abandoned by his mother at age seven and now lives with his grandmothe. He was severely impacted by this, but his grandmother actually noticed odd behaviors and actions he enacted even before that. He explains that as young as 4 years old, he was blinking frequently and often made jerky movements with his head or his shoulder. Hoping he would just grow out of it, there was no significant intervention. As he grew older, the disturbances became more significant and included unwanted speech and verbal explosions. In this video, learners are given the opportunity to observe Carl and his behaviors right before their eyes. His explanation of the development of the condition and his unprovoked on-screen movements and statements provide insight into his potential diagnosis.
