From Superstition to Science: Unmasking the Myths of Tourette Syndrome
from Recovering From Religion · host Recovering From Religion
Tourette Syndrome has been widely misunderstood throughout history and even today. During the Spanish Inquisition, individuals exhibiting Tourette-like behaviors were sometimes accused of being possessed by demons and tragically burned at the stake. In modern times, people may avoid seeking appropriate treatment because of psychiatric denial, hoping that prayer, positive thoughts, diet, or simply just growing out of it will improve the condition. Join Adrienne Hill as she talks about the sounds, movements and myths surrounding Tourette Syndrome.
