I love the positive messages from this book, empowering people to feel that they are more than their ticsIt sheds light on Tourette Syndrome itself in way that is very accessible to young people. It's great to have advice and tips for managing tics and other co-occurring conditions written by therapists and the young people and adults with Tourette Syndrome themselves. -- Dr Seonaid Anderson, research manager Tourettes Action
Wow! This is a cool, hands-on guide on how to deal with day-to-day situations people with tics dread. And we, health professionals, often dread being asked what to do! But fear not: The Tourette Survival Kit has all the answers, in a clear, no-nonsense and humorous way. A highly recommended, and very enjoyable read. -- Dr Andreas Hartman, Chair of the European society for the study of Tourette syndrome
