Hi and welcome

my son and husband have TS and both have found that medication really didnt help much but supplements like magnesium (they use the Natural Calm powder) B vitamins etc and careful diet really do make a big difference

I have a thread here on what has been helpful
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread1145.html

I am not sure if you are aware that Tourette now falls under the Americans with Disability Act and so it is against the law to be discriminated against because of the TS (like happened with that job interview where they should have been told, no, not drugs, it is TS)

there is lots that can be done to make life with TS better, without having to resort to strong prescriptions

we look forward to getting to know you
