Book Description
Meet Jamie, a young boy with ADHD and a tic disorder called Tourette Syndrome. He's not being fidgety or naughty - he really can't help it! Jamie explains how he was diagnosed and what having tics and ADHD is like for him. He also shares how he has learnt to relieve his ADHD symptoms, minimise his tics, and how friends and adults can help at home and school. This illustrated book comes in two parts - one with interactive activities and heaps of useful information about having both ADHD and tics. Jamie explains how it can be really tricky to tell whether your fidgeting comes from having ADHD, tics, or both! The second part tells the story of how Jamie's Grandfather encouraged him to learn more about his tics. Jamie and his friends who attend the after-school tic club learn about each other by sharing their experiences of ADHD and tics at home and at school. This book is ideal for children aged 7+ as well as friends, teachers and professionals working with children with ADHD and tic disorders, and a great starting point for family and classroom discussions too!

Book Description
In this modern age most people seem to finally understand what Tourette Syndrome is, but there are still quite a few misunderstandings and assumptions, fed by Hollywood's mockery on Coprolalia. There are hundreds of documentaries about TS, by directors who don't have TS, explained by doctors who don't have TS. My name is Josh Hamilton, but my friends call me Ticker, and I have Tourette Syndrome. I'm a somewhat successful individual - I'm a signed musician, a business owner, and a published author, and I have my TS to thank for fueling my success. I meet so many others with TS and they seem to still be struggling. As people, we have no real idols or leaders out there with TS who can show us the path to a better perspective on our condition. I would like to be that leader. In this guide I teach perspective, how to handle bullies, alternative treatments to help nullify your Tourette's, and a few other great things. If you struggle with your Tourette Syndrome, hold this guide close to you in case you find yourself in a situation. I only hope that it guides you to a better outlook on both yourself and the world around you. Let's show the world that TS is not a crutch - it is the fuel to your success!
