Beverly I had no idea. I knew about the different tics and vocalizations, but didn't realize there were so many different ones.
I had a co-worker with Tourettes and his symptoms rubbed up against one of my triggers...but what can you do.

We could always tell when he was super stressed as he would make the noises more and we knew to be nice to him that day.
