I Have The Worst Tourettes in America | TRULY 

Sasha Johnson he was holding the door for the camera man 😂

@@mitchellcarpenter9552 the camera man is obviously a person, the guy obviously still has trouble controlling his body. So at the end of the day, he still holds the door for people and treats them with respect, last time I heard you don't have to hold the door for anyone.

Sasha Johnson Are you an idiot? 😂 He's not just gonna go through the door and not hold it. The camera guy needs him too.

@@mitchellcarpenter9552 he could've just left it. But we see him reach back in an effort to try to help the next person. It says something about his personality and if you can't see that I'm sorry for you.

It's the good education from good parent

@@markart157 LMFAO--I was just about to write that under NO circumstances is it ever okay to mock people and harass them.

I've got schizophrenia so everyone's at me.

Except its not true. Just a saying to cope with himself

@Jeniesa Holmgren I get it, but I think there is also some cases of misunderstanding and a desire to understand.

Hiro it is true maybe you don’t like it because you don’t understand it

Flowery language that means nothing at all

@Jeniesa Holmgren You know many people, i dont, thats personal experience, but the reason we litteraly got so far as humanity is because we embraced what we dont understand lmao not because we didnt like it. More accurate quote would be people fear what they dont understand. But even that depends.

You can report the offensive stuff to the people in charge of Tiktok because they don't put up with things like people making fun of others.

@@josephbennett3482 it’s so many different accounts 😩 they fake having Tourette’s, Dissociative Identity Disorder, and other stuff, it makes me so upset

you know saying this is really harmful to the community you’re trying to defend right 😐

@@blood1nthewine how’s it harmful. When people who are genuinely suffering also hate the people who fake all these illnesses.

@@blood1nthewine you are harming me right now

I love people that's unique. I'd really love to meet him or even talk to him. I have a friend that has albinism and she got bullied a lot when my friends ask me "Why do you really wanna hang out with her?" I said "Cause she's special and unique, we'll never understand what had happens to person's life that we've never felt"

Not really but ok...

Well said

No one thinks it's contagious lol

I think that people think that he could hurt them. Because some people with Tourettes have violent tics

He need to cut that goddamn hair first

Dont be rude, people can wear what they want to wear and style their hair however they want

True, but honestly I'd avoid him too. I think it's something with our animal brain, to avoid sick people.

@@mrknarf4438 that is so rude, just because someone is different doesn't mean you cant hang out with them, hes not sick, nor, is he an animal, he has tourette's and that doesn't define who you are

@@NirvanA547 you must learn the difference between rudeness and honesty. I've just stated the truth, how I'd genuinely behave were I to meet him without knowing anything about him. And I'd have to force myself to get over that gut reaction to get to know him. Rude? Perhaps, human nature isn't gentle. But we've evolved this way for a reason.

What school was it that you attended with him? Grade school or college?

College at NIACC

@@arcanebeats_ Awesome, he has just graduated from there. He will be one of the speakers at graduation. I wish you would have said hello as well. He is pretty amazing. We just got back from looking at AZ state and he is still waiting on Vanderbilt to decide on his application. Proud Dad

All you can do is learn from it 🤷‍♀️, don’t judge right away.

@@josephstalin9357 bruhhhh 😅

I can see it. Guitar especially since it keeps your hands moving.

@@Offworld-t6f actually, he incorporated his stutter in his music

@CrypticPortal maybe the reason why he can still play an instrument is because he focuses on playing it so the sudden urge of head movements stops, like example, playing a game and you're just focused on beating that game so you loose your attention on your surroundings. im not quite sure tho

I have a friend who had strong tourettes during schooltime aswell. His tics were also pretty severe (throwing his hand up in the air and also ticcing with his head and upper body). Whenever he started to play the drums, the tics just stopped. It was amazing every time

Its a matter of the nerve pathways being quieted or over-ridden, in a sense, by the brain having to be constantly aware of a beat or cadence. This happens with people who stutter too. When they recite poetry or sing, they do it fluidly.

Mu57y x people are assholes. It’s so disheartening.

one big train wreck

Fr it makes me so sad

Mu57y x I was born with spina bifida and people make fun of me for my problems that I have to deal with they act like I have control over my problems even though I don’t

I'm bipolar and I've been looking for someone to love. Then there comes this bully who destroys every chance of talking to someone who is interested in me. I grabbed his throat in front of my teachers and permanently scarred him. The worst thing is that I forgot to bring a knife to the fight

Seems like he's missing his calling is the feeling I got. Not only is he a skilled musician, but all his worries seem to fade away when he plays...I know he's invested in his future as an engineer, but I hope he never stops playing music at least as a hobby 🤘

@delcyrus It sure does, my friend.

Music is everything metal is boss and guitar is the ultimate escape

I've started growing my hair and beard out. I've always had social anxiety and decided, screw it, it'll never go away, let's stop wasting so much time shaving and cutting hair to perfection. Beards are in, anyway. It's the Covid look.

Not to mention it’s probably hard to get a haircut with his tics. Its probably dangerous

I couldn't imagine how annoying getting your hair in your face every time you tick would be. Annoying on top of the Tourette's

@@lujamu1597 it is very annoying, i also have Tourettes and cant stand long hair with some of the tics i have.

I dont think people suggest a hair cut thinking it will stop his tics. Cutting his hair just makes sense since he cannot stop from throwing his hair in front of his face.

It’s extraordinary… that was a really amazing thing Mayo did! There was a boy in Australia that had total relief of all tics. I only hope this young man has the same experience

Mayo can go both ways. Depends on the Department and the Doctors. Can't speak for all locations, just MN.

Working at the mayo clinic is HUGE in my eyes. Wishing u many years of happiness and success there, they do great things

Yassss! I was thinking, if I were in high school with him, we would have been friends! But I was an outcast, so that’s who I’m drawn to naturally. ❤️

Me too!. I have a friend here in my town that had the deep brain stimulation device, sadly she got a infection and it had to be removed.

In like 3rd? Grade there was a kid with Tourette’s in my class. His was mostly vocal back then. It really bothered me in class during quiet reading time or during tests. My school held an assembly explaining what Tourette’s was. I felt horrible about my irritation at him. But I also latter found out I was autistic. So I now understand his condition and my reaction, but it doesn’t make me any less sad about how I reacted.

@@lolaby2 I am Autistic too but I don't let that stop me, Try to work around it and maybe even use it to your advantage, I am really good at Graphic Design and noticing things nearly no one else does. It is sad that this guy doesn't have much friends, he seems to be an awesome dude, amazing at music and has a sick hairstyle (sick as in F*CKING COOL), I hope he makes some awesome friends and people respect him for who HE is, not who they want him to be.

Some schools do teach about it. The best schools assign a buddy for the physically and intellectually challenged students. The buddies have to be recommended by a teacher and they have to spend a day in a wheel chair or with a blind fold or deaf.

Preach 🙌

I get your message Jamie, but "people like him"? I think you misconstrued people like him with anyone in general? Pointing out that someone is flawed is still around about way of bullying. 2021 folks.

@@emtaetronsgly6326 That clearly wasn't the intent. You read it that way. 'People like him' here just means people who have disabilities. They were saying everyone should teach their kids to treat people with disabilities with respect. That phrase is only alienating in certain tones and intentions. There was no negative connotation here. Let's start looking at the big picture, rather than take away from it by focusing on miniscule details.

I don't think anyone raises their child to be a bully...

He's already a guitarist :)

Lol

He loves his guitar. When we shot the video he couldn't play anything that might have a copy right. They edited out a lot of other sections that I thought sounded just as good. Thanks for your kind comments. Proud Dad

@@christophersmith4022 That's awesome, shame about the copyright nonsense! Would have liked to have heard him go at it.

@@christophersmith4022 @Christopher Smith Christopher Smith hi Trevor's dad, any updates on how he's doing? I saw this video on Snapchat (profile name is "Born Different") about Trevor's story instantly latched onto my heart and I've been googling like crazy hoping to find any updates on how he's feeling and how the DBS treatment is going. I also use a Neurstimulator (housed in my back) but it's for pain control and for my bladder (Interstitial Cystitis), there's definitely good days and not so good days. It's been interesting to learn how to live with it, listen to how my body responds, and figuring out the happy place with the voltage and frequency. I use humor as a way to cope and have any had many surgeries including top and bottom jaw surgery (cadaver bone, plates, screws implanted) so I always joke that I'm a cyborg (like RoboCop) with the Neurstimulator and my metal face. Lastly, I signed a pledge at tourettepledge.org/ in honor of Trevor. I've never used TS as a punchline or slur but I recognize signing the pledge is a way to show support and raise awareness. I have a feeling Trevor is going places in life and will continue to make an impact on people. -M

People like this inspire me to be better, do more, understand others a whole lot more......to just be a more accepting person. Thank you.

Damn it I wish I was there so I could wack him and blame it on my tics.

Who indeed 🤔🤔

Really?🤔

People with neurological disorders have different brain waves and they're brains analyze music and sounds differently. I have JME and music helps keep me calm and I've never had an episode when I'm listening to music.

Music is super powerful. Stutterers for example can sing without stuttering, and while singing one can not be scared...No surprise songs have been part of medicine in all ancient and some present cultures.

That's the thing with Tourettes ( it runs in my family and I have it) If you are really focused on something you like, the tics stop. It is very painful since you keep doing the motions over and over and over.

@@InnannasRainbow right, it`s not just music, it`s drawing, for some ppl work lilke doing someting very important, but also singing or playing music

@@Plaksa2004 Mine stops if I am really interested in what I am doing or watching.

I wonder if it's common for people with torrettes to be musically talented. I know of a few people that have torrettes and play in bands and they are amazing.

@@itsnotaphasemom1559 oh cause he has long hair right?🤔😑😑

I like how the show then clarified that music isn't a permanent solution because...you know...he can't just play music constantly forever

I just saw a video last week where a high school girl banged her head and smacking her throat, it was so loud when she hit herself it feels like she's in front of me in real life. I feel bad for her, I don't remember her channel though, I think she made the channel just to document every tics if I can recall correctly. I wish well and hope for the best to those suffering this disorder.

Oh wow… That sound so difficult to deal with!! I wonder how she is now…

@@quintfl what? he's talking about the kids at school bullying him...

...You don't really understand how bullying works, do you? You can be the raddest, chillest, nicest person in school but if other kids feel they can gain greater social acceptance by putting you down for what makes you different, best believe they will.

BNEB BNEB agreed! I’d like to jam with him

Bullying shouldn't exist at all. You don't seem to understand how it's like...

According to some medical research, tics can almost entirely disappear when affected people are participating in an activity that requires thier focus and happen more when they're relaxed.

Yeah, I don't have tics anymore but I randomly had them for about a year (which is possible, but I wouldn't claim to have had any specific tic disorder since I never got diagnosed) and they would stop when I played bass.

When they sleep also, there s no tic

He deserves it haha

Gil yes! Strong, smart, disciplined, and handsome. This does have to be exhausting. Amazing the tics stop when placing music.

Gil He is so strong and very handsome

@@User-718_ What did he even do?

@@daemia idk it looked like it was bothering him

@@klakeron4209 What abt when u have to take contacts out

What if you're deaf- Just be like "Oh yo medulla my man, this boi feeling vibrations, should we set the ear drums back up?" "yeah auditory cortex. Looks like my man be hearing BEATS"

Plus hes pretty damn good

Well I wouldn't say "music can cure anything", this only worked on him because it's particularly interesting to him enough to distract his mind from Tourettes' impulses. I'd know because I have tourette's. My interest would be a challenging game. It's not music for everyone with tics.

@@Ada-on8yy Likely, Beethoven also plays music despite being deaf 😂

@@VelruthLach Touché, touché. He was pretty incredible, too.

hit him up on ig

He is very handsome 🥰

I was about to say that he is very good looking.

I was thinking the same like every time they slow down the footage of him moving it looks like he’s just starring in his own like movie or shampoo commercial... he got done nice hair.. I hope him and his family is well

He adores his fingers like i do after I eat fried chicken I just love to smell them.....mmmmm

I’ve been playing guitar for 12 years and i’ve never gotten a girlfriend from playing. My fiancé loves me because of who I am, the guitar playing is just a bonus. Same with this dude hopefully.

Mustache Man well yeah obviously I hope he finds someone who loves him for who he is. But he already seems like a nice kid so whenever this hypothetical girl does see him playing, she’s gonna freak out

Hell yeah!

Mustache Man I'm a guitarist and pianist and same for me and my girlfriend it's just an added bonus

I'm a woman and some guy better fall in love with me even thought I don't have torrets.

It’s like people who stutter can sing without a stutter

Music is peace, no matter the genre.

guitar is the only thing that stops my tics consistently

Maybe it’s helpful to hear and feel the musics literal energy, sensations of the vibrations coming from the music, if the head shaking tic is a similar sensation then the music could help with concentration on the music and bring relief 4:14

Yeah it’s really beautiful. It’s by music therapy is a larger and growing field now.

Elisa Kingsbury - I agree... I believe the bullies have a mental defect, kinda like a derangement 🤨

It's because they're weak minded individuals projecting their own insecurities onto others, which in turn makes them feel good. If they're in a group then it's about getting noticed for all the wrong reasons.They aren't tough, they aren't smart and they aren't funny.

@@Bethanywi gender doesn't really affect hair it's usually just family genes

@@PandaGuillou And my family has long, thick, beautiful hair. Mine is just long, thin, a very ugly brown.

I actually think it makes a lot of sense. It's helps "mask" the tourette. Like people could think he is just arraging his hair and getting of his face, instead of having a tic. Or that he could be head banging to music, instead of a tic. While seing thw video I thought it was a smart move :)

Silvia Sandino Nieto And the fact that it might be dangerous to come near his face with sharp objects.

@@skandisjvel1147Sorry, I really don't understand your comment. Does it have to do something with the hair? Or are you commenting on something else?

@@SilviaSandinoNieto if you want to cut the hair you need to bring sharp objects close to his face :p

He can't even keep still because of his tics, so of course his hair hasn't been cut in a long time.

His surgery went well. He is still programing his device, even these years later. Very slow process and his doctors want him to do some non-traditional therapy before continuing his programming. Thanks for the kind words. His mom and I are very proud of all of our children. Trevor has graduated college as an Industrial Engineer and has taken a position with one of the worlds largest companies as a manager. He is still an amazing guy. Proud Dad.

People have implicit biases and I don't think there's much you can do about it... Also random people couldn't possibly know he has tourettes, I think it's quite rare because I'm yet to meet someone with this condition. If a guy having such severe ticks walked towards me on the street I'd probably assume he's some kind of junkie and I'd watch him like a hawk so I can react to potential danger.

@ThisIsOkiki I'm not judging anyone...

It's probably a hold over from our primitive instincts. People with certain conditions could be detrimental to the survival of a group and would not make suitable mates.

Any idea what happens if you smoke weed? Serious question.

@@DOGMAFREE1 I’ve been debating if I should or not because it is supposed to help calm you down which in turn can help with the ticks, but I decided to take medical marijuana gummies which do help a lot, their is also an oil droplet you can use but I have never actually smoked weed, so I can’t tell you from personal experience, but from what I’ve heard it does help

@@blainew79 well..glad you chose controlled (clinic) edibles and not just tried smoking weed. I smoke but have never denied the negative side effects of smoking so I was glad to read that you went with gummies. Thanks for the insight.

@@DOGMAFREE1 no problem bro, good luck to ya

@@blainew79 Good call on the gummies 👍 Smoking makes it really hard to control the doses. I use them for stomach & depression issues. If I have to smoke I only take like half a lungful & only retain it to the count of 3. The gummies I cut n2 quarters. I have found that most people totally overdose on marijuana. Most of the negative side effects r due to overdose. Getting lazy & stupid means TOO MUCH. I've gotten alot of people to try only using a tiny amount compared to their usual & they r always shocked at the difference. In appropriate doses, it has mild stimulant properties. Makes u feel motivated & improves concentration which is practically the opposite of a overdose effect. U may find that the CBD part without the THC part of pot would help with your Tourettes better. The THC is the part that gets u "high" but the CBDs r what have medicinal properties for things like seizures. Unfortunately, there's alot of CBD products out there now & MANY r garbage. If u try it, b sure to do some research & find a quality one. I bet the right stuff would make a drastic difference n ur ticks. CBD is being used to completely STOP seizures n people with very bad epilepsy. Good Luck! 👍😊

This is what happens when you put a lot of effort and mobilize all your energy into something that you are passionate about. I also imagine that his studies are going pretty well despite his obvious challenges with having Tourettes.

Tourette’s helps a lot of us with muscle memory so in a lot of cases we find it easier than most people to learn an instrument, pretty much the only perk to Tourette’s

@@hannahdiane8451 oh wow that's very interesting. That makes me wonder, does that affect hand eye coordination in a positive or negative way?

HiThere idk how to answer that , I guess in a positive way for learning muscle memory , but I have Tourette’s and am terrible at sports that involve hand eye coordination so I don’t know

Yea i felt him on the knee pain. Sometimes it tries to hyper extend its self lol. Got better as i got older and now it's just leveled out and mainly in my legs and some ocd with the number of times i touch things with each side of my body needs to be the same lol it's so weird. But fits my personality haha

Your claim is untrue. Your videos show that your tics are nowhere near as frequent as his. Poor guy has his every 3 seconds or so

@@elihernandez800 I don't have TS so I can't say much, but I can say that it isn't fair to try to judge the harshness of someone else's experience. In a different video I saw about someone with TS, the woman said that she could suppress them to a degree, although it required a lot of concentration and was painful. This guy has slight relief from music. You are only seeing a fraction of Brynne's life, and there is no way for you to know the severity of her condition at it's worst, as you can't read her mind, and I'm guessing that when she is having a bad day with it, she probably doesn't want to film.

Dont forget the hair

Boo!! He is bad and disgusting

His channel, if you were wanting to know ru-vid.com/show-UCxGYP8uTJB6dr8JtQ6xnMVA

He did finish college as an Industrial Engineer. He is just getting started with his life. He couldn't wait to move out of our house and start his own life. He moved an hour away. Drive sucks for his sisters and I when we want to visit, but it is always good to visit with him when he has time. Thank you for your kind words. I will pass them on. Proud Dad

that's racist

Neo Izguerra wah?

Girls also like dudes with long hair that play guitar.

@@sarahpursley719 that’s a myth, I play guitar and I have long hair, i have zero girls, but I play because I love the instrument so I don’t care for the attention anyway

@@mephistopheles7545 apparently you’re playing for the wrong girls.

It’s therapeutic for me. It has helped me with my depression and anxiety.

@@sarahpursley719 LOL true! ☺

Yeah!, I don't feel like his ticks are THAT extreme, I mean, I'm fine with the ticks.

@@heavenlydusk Yes, the ticks aren't a big deal if you were to have him as a friend, not even as a couple mayhap, but it's genetic, his mother also has it and he got it worse, would you risk having children with him and them being even more severe, do you think he would risk it? I feel bad for the dude, it superficially may seem not as much of a big deal, but anything you inherit to your children is, and it surely makes him very self conscious, even if he got married he'd question having children.

So you are saying you would harass this man on the streets and you get +300 likes, society!

Liar

@@mankind8807 ur weird lmao

It'd be sick if his favorite band acknoldged him and gave some inspirational words to him. Metalheads are a big family and we all care for each other (except for the elitetists, we don't mention them).

@Caleb I didn't know that knowing more about music meant that other genres suck and only THEIR SPECIFIC genre is good. Knowing more about a thing that is mostly opinion based is pretty hard, especially when they usually listen to all of the extreme underground genres and refuse to listen to anything else.

He looks like Bruce Dickinson from the early 80’s

@Caleb well, human limitation and subjectivity blinds everyone from the ultimate objective critique, if you are a human being no doubt something great will fly by your radar until a future time or eternity. That being said I wasn't making an argument against definites per se, but more so a statement on the social aspect of music and basic coping skills lost on younger generations. Furthermore, yes, some things are pure garbage e.g. most if not all of Taylor Swift's production, I give a little wiggle room because I don't have full exposure to her comprehensive trash catalog.

SLAYER

God is able to heal him

There was a similar video about a girl with one of the worst cases of tourettes who lived in Australia i think. She had deep brain stimulation and her tics pretty much stopped.

Believe God for him

@@caitlinh6182 yes I remember that . Hopefully he can be helped too

His surgery is helping. He is still programming his device. He has started a non-profit and is traveling around and speaking to colleges and groups about this condition. He has applied to Stanford University this year. Hoping he gets in. You can reach him through his FB page (s) or follow him. TouretteFoundation or DBS for Trevorsmith. Proud Dad

Tics usually calm down when you're concentrated

He's only 17...

@@juliettedesecillon1379 I know 15 year old's with full beards, lol.

@@juliettedesecillon1379 17 or not, he is clearly shaving, look at his skin.

I'm sure it's electric razor

Thanks, I will let his mom know. In truth, his sisters are just as accomplished as he is. He is a little more outgoing than his sisters. Trevor and his sister Olivia graduated high school at 15. His youngest sister Savannah graduated at 14. They are all A students in college and VERY competitive.

Agreed! 💯

Oh you know him personally. Great!

@@blythesaunders3124 I am his dad. His mom and I were in the video. I want to be the first to say that the camera adds a few pounds...(smiling)

@@christophersmith4022 I don't feel being competitive is necessarily something to strive for. I feel that accomplishment is a very arbitrary word to begin with. There are people who have accomplished many things and commit evil on this Earth. If he is a light unto the world, especially given his obstacles, that is amazing and that is the highest accomplishment for himself and the sake of humanity.

Bless her soul I hope everything goes well for her

She Will bê Fine these days It is Very easy tô know other children With adhd and similar spectrum stuff as well só please make her feel included by knowing ppl like her exist and shes not lonely best wishes!

@@Alex-zy5vh Very true! Her daughter will do just fine. People are more accepting now

I've got them too and tic attacks have sent me to the ER before. Make sure to get some medical guidance. I wish I could help but tics are different in every single person.

@@lovestruck3773 i wish your comment 🙌 was above my comment. Ofc medical guidance!. I Just hear a Lot of loneliness from neurodivergent/autistic friends (only a few of my friends have tics!) What you think 👍

Yes I totally love his hair and he's cute too

The hair seems to be aggravating some ticks tbh

Widget222 that is a tick not a cause of ticks. You do not understand Tourette's so watch and learn and be thankful

he has a youtube channel ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Doa1p9BPO8E.html

@@thooke222 it's spelled tic. Also, I'm fairly certain he grew his hair out to make his head movements seem less out of place.

*Same*

Same too

Me too

Me too frfr

Same and y'all 😸

Thanks, I wish I could say it is perfect all of the time. We certainly have challenges with all 3 kids in college. Trevor being the oldest, he sets the tone for his sisters. They are all very close and super motivated in life. That makes parenting a little easier. I don't know if the parents shape the kids or the kids shape the parents. In my case, Trevor and the girls have probably shaped me more then I have them. Thanks for the kind words. Proud Dad

Oh Asis Bur are you sure that he was actually fine with it or was he just acting like he was fine with it?
