Download or read book Tourette Syndrome, Beyond The Unwelcome Companion written by Rick Fowler and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-02-25 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2012 release also includes the complete revised text of the author's well-received 1996 book The Unwelcome Companion, An Insider's View of Tourette Syndrome. The 1996 edition was one of the first books written by a person with TS that openly discussed the internal mental processes that accompany tics and other symptoms.The new chapters further reveal (in greater detail) how it feels to experience the tics, obsessions, and compulsions commonly associated with Gilles de la Tourette syndrome. The book only lightly touches on medical information and remains highly focused on taking the reader far inside the Tourettic mind.For those interested in a view of Tourette syndrome from within, this is a "must read."
