The majority of the textbooks on tics and movement disorders we're given now don't include whats called "Tic status" or "Status tics". A quote I've pulled from a neurology textbook before 2010 quoted
"motor and vocal tics can be quite prolonged, usually as a series of
clonic tics or dystonic tics that are continual, lasting tens of minutes."
Now these are generally labeled under functional tics or PANS/PANDAS/BGE.
With how misinformative info on Tics/TS has become since 2020 its really hard for me to tell which is true or if if there's an overlap within FND and PANS/PANDAS with Tourettes.
This is something we all need to keep in mind when studying tics on a clinical level.

I really do think I'm onto something with the stuff I'm doing with Matilda and this grant I'm writing. I think the trick to understanding executive dysfunction in the sense of difficulties with task initiation — that is, getting up and doing the thing — as well as autistic inertia more generally is hidden in the Parkinsonian literature and dysfunction of dopinaminergic signaling in the nucleus accumbens. Which, blah, blah, blah, but if you look at therapies designed to help Parkinson's patients with their well documented issues with self-gated action initiation you see a bunch of therapeutic interventions based on the fact that cued movements are easier, so you just have to find cues that help support the brain through initiating movement itself.
Uuuuuugh but I gotta get some crap published if I want to be able to make the case that I know what I'm doing here, if I want to find someone to work with to investigate therapeutic interventions. It's going to be a fun few months as I try to get some pubs out ASAP while I definitely still have funding. Probably will try to trick myself into making that less scary by nattering on social media...

Hi! It's that one anon that asked about TWs a few days ago! Thank you so much for responding to my last question, it means a lot to me.
I'm sorry to be bugging you about this again and I know this might seem like a silly question, but bear with me.
When you say lobotomy, do you mean, like
full-on irreversible, medically-induced physical brain damage? :'D
(very much enjoyed the last update by the way, tysm for your hard work on this comic)
medically induced is streching it, but yeah

Not to whine but I have literally 3 of my migraine triggers all throwing hands at me this morning (period, allergies, storms) and I'm so dizzy and all I wanna do is WRITE but my brain cannot think past "the" right now ugh
Like if I could describe what it feels like being in the throws of a migraine or like pre-migraine it's like someone dragging a sheet over your brain and trying to turn the lights off but you're still very much here. You just feel like you're floating and nothing feels real lmao
