Probably the sweetest human being on this earth
So everyone’s just up at 1:30 am huh ?

@Daily Dose Of Internet soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo truuuuuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeee!! Btw Thanks for making videos!
I have tourette syndrome myself and one of those sentences I used to say was: "Let's invade Germany."
Lets do this!
Me, a German: D:
Wait, that's illegal! 😁
I know a guy who had an infliction like that but it was "Let's Invade France"
Mission failed we will them next time😂😂
I laughed so hard at "so he was a champ".
She has a great attitude and I am sure it took a lot to get to that.
It's always funny how those who suffer the most end up developing such a wonderful attitude towards everything. It brings a really great appreciation to all of the good things in life. I believe that behind every good person is great pain whether they ever show it or not.
I come from Germany and I have to say, I could listen to her for hours. Her voice, her way of speaking, her whole way of telling stories is unbelievably great to listen to. Thank you.
Good news! You can. She streams on twitch. Look for Sweet Anita.
Let's be honest, this woman is FAR more well socially adjusted than the majority of people on Twitch.
Which isn't saying much, but yeah, true.
Haha. Damn called that one fo sho.
Majority? Nah. Just loud kids
because going through tough shit and being alone humbling yourself makes you a better person, rather than looking for others assholes that are just the same as the rest of crappy streamers
Get rid of that on twitch and it still works
Imagine being a qualified professional and telling a child they’re attention seeking when they have Tourette’s
The medical profession is full of absolute wastes of a degree, I really don't understand how it happens
There are more moronic psychiatrists than most people on earth
As person fresh after medical studies I can say that a lot of doctors have good knowledge ONLY in single field of medicine. Especially older doctors
Many doctors lose their focus, passion and purpose once they hit the field. I’ve met doctors who clearly don’t give a crap about the well being of their patients. The same happens in other “high morality” fields like law.
@@joe-un1ky Yeah why going to school to be a doctor when you can watch RUclips videos about heart transplant right ? (The award for the most stupid comment goes to....)
I admire how she can stay so focused right in the midst of a tick.. never misses a question being asked, or losing train of thought. That’s good confidence and strength! 👍
she has an incredibly soothing voice tone I could keep listening to her all day long...
The fact she had to wait until 27 for a diagnosis is horrifying
Free healthcare!
Why is it horrifying stop over sensationalizing
@@xwvr6656 it's horrifying because if she knew she had Tourettes at a young age she could have started living a happy full life from a more early age. She's so sweet and such an idol for her tough spirit tbh
@@rwleif 😂 best comment.
@@rwleif no..
"I killed 52,000 men"
Dictators all over the world: "I too, have such a condition"
“Those are rookie numbers. Gotta bump them up!” Is also what they would say
*looks at hands*
Maybe I do have Tourette’s
More like American senators receiving donations from the freedom bomb companies.
Add like one or two zeroes to it
Why you don't have more likes for this comments is beyond me...
I really love sweet Anita for the fact she is so open and honest about her experience with tics. I have Tourette’s and my entire life I have been told it wasn’t real and that I was faking and being attention seeking. She really inspired me to love myself for who I am. ❤❤❤❤
What a well spoken, sweet, articulate woman. When she said she wasn't ashamed of self harming in the past because she got through it and survived it, it really resonated with me. I wish her every single blessing and a life filled with happiness
The tone of her whistle is like sonically perfect
Was trying to think of a word to describe it but i think that pretty much sums it up. Even the pop is pretty much perfect.
Ringtone emulation with the whistle.
And the pop is new message sound on FB messenger.
Her gps voice is even better.
She streams on Twitch. Sweet Anita is her Twitch name.
Lots of practice
Her whistling is incredible.
I know right??
Practice makes perfect, i guess
I came here to see if anyone mentioned this. So clear n great
She’s had a lot of practice!
Samsung notification
I love her whistle and pop thing she does with her mouth. I have dyslexia so I actually read this as "UNLAID" instead of "UNILAD."
Hey, I don't have it and I still read it that way bud (curse me and my dirty mind) :P
Can I laugh
I doubt it, not with how pretty she is.
@@marcswann8236 no cap she fine
Cor I would!
She's so cool and really well spoken, I wish I could speak that clearly and she just instantly makes you interested in what shes saying, her voice is lovely and soft, I could listen to her all day
Yeah, she is famous because of what she speaks :D
Her whistling has the clearest sound I ever heard coming from a human.
she has had a lot of practice
@@ryanmoore3374 indeed
And what about that "pop" sound. That was perfect
@Joel Roy
Its not maybe.
It actually IS that.
ikr. It sounded like some sort of a notification XD
Man imagine someone, a therapist, a psychologist
Telling you that
Your problem, that you can't control… is for attention seeking.
Thats tough because u know ur not but they just brand u as an attention seeker. Some doctors dont pay attention to anything because my brother almost died because of a urine infection and the doctor said he just had a cold and called my mum a crazy mother
I dont think a psychologist or psychiatrist would only check for psychosis. Was probably a GP with limited psychiatric training. Knowledge of Tourettes is widespread among professionals in psychiatry.
Welcome to psychiatrists.
@@bjornhoffman7097 well you kinda expect doctors to have a clue since most people who aren’t even doctors know about tourrets
those people shouldn't be practicing medicine its incredibly damaging and harmful to people already struggling
That is absolutely the best description of tourette's I have ever heard. You young lady have a great future and you are going to overcome everything. God bless you.
I was also only diagnosed when I was 27 or so. I grew up with really intrusive vocal ticks and eventually learnt to handle it by training myself into non vocal ticks that were not obvious to people around me. Being diagnosed was an incredible relief not because it opened the door to treatment, but because it explained why it was happening
Interesting u were able to train yourself to change the tick..wonder if you can try it away entirely
Well done regardless mate!
@@someguy-ty1fg unfortunately not. I found I could redirect the tics, but I had to do something, otherwise I reverted to the tic I was trying to stop.
Aside from the ticks, she talks better than most people.
Speaks*
Even with the ticks she speaks better then most
@@rraasszzrs2824 Nope .. 'Talks' is correct in this context.
Aye better than u bum fluff
@@black_rifles_matter breathe*
I can't believe they didn't diagnose her until she was 27. What an utter, disastrous failing of our medical system.
Somtimes it's better alot of teens are diagnosed with bi polar disorder when they are just emotional, being bi polar affects your life but when it's on paper when you dont have it then it's more fucked up
She's from the UK
Yeah, UK medical system is terrible. Doctors in the US wouldn’t let this go undiagnosed for so long
@@MDbaseball3 they’re not terrible it’s free health care you can’t complain about something you don’t pay for
The attention seeking thing is a huge problem for a lot of young people, especially young women. Unfortunately the roots of medicine as it is now practiced are in the years of “hysteria” as a diagnosis and those unconscious biases haven’t been eradicated yet, not even close.
Re: UK vs USA, this is a problem in both countries (and also in Europe and Canada and likely nigh on everywhere else) but at least in the UK they don’t charge you for the privilege of being gaslighted about your body, and your income isn’t a barrier for getting to see appropriate specialists.
Thank you for sharing this with us and helping others to understand. You are so amazingly articulate in explaining your story and I really appreciated it. ❤
I'm so impressed by your strength and resilience. You are such an intelligent, beautiful and are obviously a kind and empathic young lady. I'm so happy you got the correct diagnosis and you have really blossomed.
That is clearest, most beautiful whistle I have ever heard.
She's had enough practice

What a simp
True
@@josephtawk1497 This
She has the best whistle i have ever heard
It is like when a youtube video says press the bell icon.
You probably get good at it after doing it every other second for the entirity of your life
Aaand all without licking the lips, how does she do that on que all the time lol
She is a gamer she does lots of streams if you look some up on youtube she whistles songs perfectly its amazing
Yeah she whistles songs sometimes as viewer requests on her stream. Never heard anything like it lol. Incredible sounding
Such a strong, amazing and beautiful human being. I'm glad to see she feels finally free and happy with her life. She is a great example to follow.
Omg, you beautiful person. This was so validating to hear someone talk about living with Tourettes. I've never been diagnosed but have had motor tics and throat tics for as long as I can remember. Growing up they always made things awkward. To hear you talk about your experiences and watch you tic as you do it, I just can't express how good it feels to watch it be acknowledged and at the same time ignored. As an adult in an office job, I always feel like I need to keep my tics under control and make them as unnoticeable as possible, so people won't think I'm weird.
On a side note, I am sorry your Tourettes involves coprolalia, and that you felt like you couldn't live until your very overdue diagnosis. I don't envy that form of Tourettes. My son has it as well, and he struggles with interpersonal relationships like you did. You seem like a fantastic role model for successfully navigating life with this condition.
I'm a single dad. My daughter has Tourette's. Her mother is out of the picture. She is handling it pretty well for 13. Her friends accept her and don't judge her. Thank you for posting your story. God bless you.
Your a good dad 👍
It's because of people like this girl that that's even possible, awareness is a precursor of acceptance.
Pfp checks out!
My sympathies to your family. I had Tourettes as a youngster, but fortunately I did "grow out of it in my early teens. It is a hard disease to live with, but there is hope. Feel free to reach out to me. I am not selling anything.
tbh, I think its great, she speaks the truth and its so refreshing
“At 27 my life started” That was deep.
Hmmm
227 likes now lol
@George Harrison lol good one
I`m 27 and already want it to end, lol.
@@VasudevaTheFerryman Try to change that.
She is beautiful, all the best to her
So clever, perfectly spoken, beautiful young lady. Very special in all terms. All the best to her.
That whistle is one of cleanest whistles I've heard.
It really is. It's amazing.
years of practice
ringtone
And the pop too
@@Themealman Music is actually one of the remedies for Tourettes. Most people afflicted by Tourettes say that their ticks go away when they are singing or playing music.
The sound affects this women can make is unbelievable.
Tell that to a beatboxer
Dude imagine Anita as a beatboxer
Should do voice acting
Yeah, but it's so devastating how it effects her daily life
This is nothing. u should watch her streams they are very entertaining
Thank you for sharing your unique talent ups and downs with the world. I have learned a few things from your story. Thank you. Thank you LADbible TV for the interview.
I was lucky to get the right diagnosis right away when I started having tics at age 6, even though I didn't have as much tics as her. It really hurts to hear she didn't just get the right diagnosis the first time she went to the doctor, and had to spend so much of her life not knowing why she had tics 💔
She is the type of person I want to have conversations with. She's been through heavy storms..
Until she curses at you lol
@@arturkvieira 10:32
You've no chance. She's only got tics... it's not like her taste in men has suffered.
SamFreedom lmao
I'll have a conversation with just about anyone, but will you only talk to people who have been through trauma?
I was not expecting her to appear on this channel but I'm glad she did
Same here lol
Yeah same
Simps
@@darksouldust8089 wtf
@@girlegendyt185 just a weak troll
As a neurologist and a young woman I find this interview endlessly fascinating. She’s so relatable and so well able to express her experience. The tics are so complex and, 2:47 min into the video, somehow super cute. I’ve seen a number of tics, some involving a risk of self-harm, and find her tics very endearing somehow. I hope it’s ok to express that here because I could never tell a patient her tics are cute, obviously! I didn’t think that adjective could be applied to complex tics…
She's a streamer and people constantly say her tics are cute, and i don't think she minds.
Better that people find her tics cute than offensive.
I'm sorry ma'am, but I have tourettes and it's not cute. I wish people would stop saying it is, I'm sorry to say this, but it isn't a compliment and it doens't make me us feel better, only worse. Because it's really painful. It's not nice or cute to have no control of your body. I was and still do get mocked, scolded, shouted, joked about, and insulted by my very own family. This is isn't easy, so people saying it's "cute" is not... not really a good thing to hear.
@@theamazinganonymous7847 Tourette's not cute, but Anita sure is.
@@ireallyreallyhategoogle she is! Not doubt about that tho. ♥️
You can say someone's tick is cute, whatever rocks your boat 💦 😂
So inspiring! Thank you for sharing your story. You are so bright, articulate and funny and I'm sure sharing this will give hope to so many. Best of luck Anita 💞
There's a reason she's called "Sweet Anita" because she has the heart of that Grandma that slips in a $20 in your pocket during thanksgiving
Really?
Better then anita sarkisean

@@defaltmarkowicz527 ...lol dude...u need to get a life...and stop thinking these girls want u...keep donating because you're NICE ,what bullshit😅😅😅..feels like somebody got offended
It makes me so upset to hear that she was beaten UNCONSCIOUS when she was 12.
Yeah, that kinda shocked me. You can’t exactly beat her just because she’s different. I mean everyone isn’t the same.
What kinda scared me was that she started hurting herself at the age of 8/9 years old.
And by sixth form, which are around 16 to 18 years old. Why wasn't something done about it?
I was incredibly shocked about that. A 12 year old beaten unconscious by someone who 4-6 years older than her. She has been through a lot but still keeps her head high.
By sixth formers. People who are on the verge of becoming ADULTS
@Calamity unfortunately a lot of places have sociopaths like that with teachers and many others just being bystanders. Their excuse is always "it's just kids". My friend was put in hospital because some girls perceived her as weird when she was in middle school. A trans teenager from a local school was almost pushed under the tracks by younger kids because "that's not a person, it's a she-he thing!"
Great interview! I'm glad that you have showcased such a high functioning person with a real, and natural, disorder. She has clearly gained a great deal of insight as a result of dealing with her condition and is very articulate when describing her experience. Good luck, miss.
I wish her all of the best, she's achieved quite a lot. It's a tough condition to live with, but the woman behind the condition is coming through, and that's very important.
Her verbal skill is probably better than 90% of us even with tics.
Yeah. 90% of your verbal skills.
Even with her tics, she forms more coherent sentences than you.
Maybe because she's English, so instantly she sounds more refined. Lol
@@lannisterfilth haha that's actually true
Speak for yourself my verbal skill is fine lol

I absolutely adore her and glad to hear her life story. I used to subscribe to her on RUclips years ago. I wish her well and hope she is happy.
Only found out about her today. Such an amazingly lovely young lady. Totally agree with what she said about context and the swearing. If other people can't handle it, that's their issue.
I don't expect her to read this but - keep doing what you're doing, I'm sure you're an inspiration to a lot of people.
Beautiful person. She can talk better than me.

Ironically, she’s actually a great speaker
Little Direct but true
@@thistagworked You should see her streams on the days her Tourettes is most active to understand it's much more than "a mini muscle spasm."
@@thistagworked oh it’s a lot more than a muscle spasm disorder...
@@thistagworked How can you say that about a neurological condition?
Iirc I read somewhere or she said I cant remember which but her chat intentionally made her tic that it made her bleed or something that she had to end stream
What a beautiful young woman! She sounds like she'd make a great friend.
It made me angry to hear what happened to her at school. It was so wrong.
I can't wait to see more of her videos.
She's so incredibly well-spoken and her voice is so soothing. My heart broke when she talked about being beat up at school
I 100% agree with you, however when you think about it from the other students perspective you can understand why. A child which had not been medically diagnosed with anything was swearing and insulting you. You have to understand that it must have been very frustrating and provoking for other people and for some violence is the answer
😭😭😭
She is a wise, intelligent and beautiful woman.

You're beautiful Anita! I'm so sad tohear all that you went through! But you're here now! And you're wonderful! Stay proud and happy with yourself! You're the most beautiful woman I've ever gotten to know ❤
And I feel like they purposely put Anita in that room that looks daunting and uncomfortable just so she would be even more nervous and her tics would flare up more often just to have more of it on video but Anita is a champ! She got through it all so brilliantly! We love you Anita!
Wow. She's so confident in herself. I would show this interview to my daughters.
as a boy with Tourette's, this video makes me unbelievably happy not only because I'm able to relate to it with passion, but because it lets me know that there are other people out there that struggle with this disorder. I was diagnosed with it at around 7 or 8 years old and all I can say is that making friends and socializing is incredibly difficult. Every person I have met that has this disorder is the most kind hearted, understanding person you'll ever meet. I think that's because they've been so hurt and mistreated by people and don't want to inflict that on others and that doesn't just apply for Tourette's. If you ever meet someone with Tourette's, please just be understanding and empathetic with them, they will like you immediately, trust me.
Yes
Same
Great words. I as well have it and found many things difficult and can relate. Really gives perspective on many things
You’re very much not alone, you’re not a freak, and you aren’t responsible for ur tics
@@alexb4185 If you have involuntary tics that gives you problems it shouldn't be necessary with a diagnosis to inform the relevant people that you have tourettes. If you do or say inappropriate things context always matters and if you hurt someone, then letting them know it was an involuntary action should negate it.
This girl is more socially confident than me
yeah agree, and also more beautiful.
Isn’t this sweet Anita the streamer she’s very funny
@@lemongrab9044 yes she is
@THICC BOI you already doing a good job at that
@@Chicken-Nuggetz 💀💀💀
Thank you for sharing your story and experience you seem like an amazing person and anyone deserves to understand what’s happening to them much younger than 27. Though it’s also good to hear that 27 is not too late for your life to start !
I cant believe your diagnosis has taken that long, im so sorry for what you've been through. Because of all this you are a very strong beautiful women and you seem that you can take on anything because of what you've been through. You must of felt so relieved when you got the diagnosis. I'm happy you can finally live your life
Is it strange that I like her tics? I know it’s involuntary and that they almost feel an urge but for her to whistle that clearly so quickly is incredible.
@Armathy Actually she has a video where she talks about people laughing at her tics and she said she doesn't mind. Given what kinds of reactions she's dealt with over her life in response to tics, finding a specific tic funny is probably more relieving to her
I found her a few minutes ago and I literally thought she was doing this only to sound cute. A few videos later, I found out that it's a disability and now I kinda feel guilty for enjoying all those videos of her.
Yeah you probably wouldn't like them as much if she wasn't so good-looking...let's be honest here.

It's kinda how people hate on Corpse for "faking" his deep voice meanwhile that's caused by a medical condition.
@@ad_astra468 I know she isn't faking it, I was baiting lucas into explaining his viewpoint however I don't think he will (:
I am curious to why someone can be envious of someone else who after struggling finally has succes and some semblance of a normal life, can't be kind enough in himself to wish that for others.
We will never know how many people will be helped by these videos. Getting a diagnosis is so important for mental health. What a sweet intelligent person.
Oh my god, Thank you so much for speaking of this. I'm glad people will realize how hard this is for people who have Tourette's. I myself actually have it however I got it when I was 8 I'm almost 19 now and still have it. I have physical and verbal ticks usually being twitching and face Tourette's and and I'm so sorry for you. It's tough considering how many people don't fully understand it. And the overwatch story of push to talk is exactly what I did to cope with it, It's almost funny how much this hits home for me. Thank you so much for this @LADbible TV and Anita for sharing this. Let us both have best of luck in the future. And lastly I wish I could of seen this sooner in my feed RUclips. Thank you.

Aside from her ticks, which are genuinely more endearing than annoying, she's probably more articulate than i could ever hope to be.

I thank you for your insight and agree with your proactive approach to dealing with others. I found throughout your interview that even with your “Tics”, your communication was far more lucid and flowing than many of today’s conversations which contain meaningless fillers such as “literally, like, seriously, right?, I know I shouldn’t say this”-then why say it? Plus your amazing ability to make that popping sound keeps folks attention to see what’s coming next. You should be a motivational/educational public speaker on this syndrome
What a compelling story. You are a gem. Thank you for sharing.
She was quite famous already within the gaming community, so now she's gonna blow up. Wish I could whistle like her.
not really. she not even a gamer. she is just playing victim and simping. literally abusing kind and good-willed people for donation to her and all the idiots in the comments constantly victimizing her. edit: half of her viewers are simps and people feeling bad for her but that is dark side for light side other half of her viewers are people who genualiy like her content or her.

She reads a lot of studies and all so she knows a lot about certain topics and in life advice she is just super spot on.
Loveliest girl I've ever seen ♥
She's probably older than you think. Most people max out their charisma at around 30.
@@PlumbumChannel She's 29
very superficial sadly... when you watch more than 1 stream you heard everything she will ever say
I find Anita so inspiring as she sets an example of how to come to terms with who you are without feeling the need to change. I don't have Tourette's, but I do have Aspergers (high functioning autism) and I've often struggled with awkward speech and movements and I've been told it makes people feel uncomfortable, so in that way, I feel like I can kinda relate. I hope she keeps going on and speaking out about her condition.
Thank you, my 10 year old son has tics since 6 years old. He is so friendly with everyone and everyone loves him. But me and my wife still felt that heart ache and guilt when we watch him having those tics. Like we failed him. I know it's silly to think like that. And my son is so strong and living his life to the fullest. Maybe we all have to learn to live with it as life goes on.
I love her voice. She has such a calming voice. I could literally hear her read a book for an audiobook any day.
well she streams watch her on twitch
DH Lawrence ...
She should definitely do audiobooks, ticks included!
i started watching her streams and every now and then she has a tick were she speaks in perfect gps guidance voice
"There is some good in this world, Mr Frodo, and it is worth fighting for!" "Fuck off"
She has the most relaxing voice ever.
Posh Scottish!
@@jonnylumberjack6223 Huh?

@@insanedelirium7047 her accent is posh Scottish. I'd guess Edinburgh or the surrounds.
Ah yes, especially the "fk off" bit
That whistle is so dang clear and precise.
Impressive
I feel so bad she went through so much pain and depression before finding her way forward. She seems like an incredibly sweet person and I hope she lives her best life going forward. I'm sure this video will speak to many others who suffer with Tourette's and may help them find the strength to overcome it. Cheers and thanks for sharing!
Despite her condition, she has a very soft, clear and pleasant voice. She comes over as intelligent and well spoken and I can definitely imagine a voice like hers in narration like audiobooks, voice acting, that kinda stuff.
Agreed! And to be honest, it would be all the better without editing of tics. Keeping the originality of her character would be vital.
But with occasional swears at the listener in between.
I think it's because she has to think a lot about what she's saying, so she's much more careful with words and what she's saying than the average person
I also thought this, I follow her channel too.
@@spaghetto9836 adlbs
I could listen to her for ages, her vocabulary and soft/elegant voice is really something else.
She's very articulate and agreable to listen to. Great sense of dry humor and self deprecation. Amazing person.
Easy on the eye too.
Or is she acting it ? Just a thought
@@Saifullah.Q no, she’s not acting at all. I know someone who has it and it comes and goes at times.
What an amazing young lady, claiming back her life and all by herself, she's an inspiration to many suffering the condition.

As for the whistle and the winks/pop sounds, these are so cute, I loved her funny stories, truly impressive intelligent lady, thank you for sharing.

She's a thing of beauty. Funny, intelligent and articulate. Pretty too. Bless her and good luck on her life path
What an amazing young lady!
Truly inspiring!
"I do swear-words"
"Brrrrexit!"
:-D You got me with this.
😂😂😂😂😂
I thought I heard Brexit! Frickin dying 😂😂
sometimes it's "breakfast" and "Brexit" at the same time lol
Its usually breakfast
Usually “brweakfest”
Lmao she’s fucking hilarious and completely adorable.
Simp
@@markusdead96 The "simp" thing is fucking stupid. It's basically the adult version of "cooties".
@@Thisisahandle701 look up the definition of simp and say it's cooties again lmao if you going to try and roast somebody at least make sure you know what the hell you're talking about
@@Thisisahandle701 such a modern millennial term.
@@zerotheotaku8169 imagine using a term like " simp" in your daily routine and getting angry with others because they dont know it... so fucking sad bro
What an amazing story teller. Kudos to her!
This lady is a gem. I could listen to her all day
Some woman i see in public: **winks at me**
Me: "wow, i should ask her for her number!"
Same woman: "a a a Fuck off"
Me: "well okay then"
Hahaha 😆 Thank You for my morning chuckle!
😂
I have friends that does this shit.. usually when they are abit drunk.
That’s just women bro
And then you encounter a woman with Tourette’s
This woman, despite what she’s going through, is incredibly well spoken. For someone who expressed such hardships in social situations when she was you g, this is phenomenal.
Domi, my comment about how well spoken was more about the fact that she mentioned how shy and afraid of being social she was. Again, it was about the hardships she endured when she was young (not you g) that makes her ability to speak so easily to a camera. But you can ignore part of what I’m saying and only read into it what you want to hear. Unfortunately, it doesn’t align with my intention.
she twitch streams all day, she's used to talking
Almost like it's all a scam.
@@yngvebalmsteen9174 Are you saying Tourette's as an illness is a scam?
Or that out of all the tens of thousands of twitch streamers, one happens to have Tourette's?
I'm just wondering which stupid ass opinion you're trying to convey
@@misterbigglesworth6320 _"I'm just wondering which stupid ass opinion you're trying to convey"_
HA HA HA - brilliant!
:-D
I just want to give her a tight hug, what a trooper! God bless her 😊
Thank you for letting us in to learn about TS . I'm glad you survived.
You also being quite attractive could be difficult at times.
What a crazy condition that you seem to do really good with now.
I searched this because I went into a cigarette store where older Asian man yelled at me while I purchased smoke.I got concerned that he might call police on me.He seemed very mad or obset at me.Well,he didn't and I kind of figured out what he was doing.
It only took a day to do.
-"Is there anything you want to say that we haven't covered yet?"
-"F off!"
lol
that's Sweet Anita, lol.
the coprolalia, aka 'Torrence', she named her tic, loves to say
'F off' as answer to something polite.
Meh I don’t know if I believe the coincidences. Other cases of coprolalia are quite different from hers
@@a.m9472 because everyone is the same and has the same degree of it, just like I’m on the spectrum so I must be screeching and throwing tantrums.
Oh wait, everyone is different.
I involuntarily burst out laughing at that - and then the interview ended. I would like to know if someone with Tourette's whose involuntary actions are deemed funny take any offence if someone is laughing hysterically 'with' them?
@@kellysereda4961 some probably do. Anita doesn't. She's stated if any of her tics made you laugh that is fine.
I’ve always liked Anita. Didn’t know her life had been so painful. She seems smart to me and it’s probably because going through hardship gives you a lot of time for introspection.
Another ugly truth... So-called Doctors in the medical field were horrible people back in the day AND they still are, because mistreating children has not stopped or even lessened, so much so that the majority is incapable and/or is unwilling to face their and their parents and the majority's ugly truth.
Experience, especially painful ones, often make people more intelligent. It also heightens your senses giving you seemingly psychic abilities. It's the ptsd/paranoia. You see the movie split? What he said at the end after she shot him was spot on and it hit me hard. I realized I'm a lot stronger than I've ever given myself credit for. Most people haven't been through what I've been through. Just the thought of it brings them to tears and they have suicidal thoughts. These same People refer to us as broken, but I can tell you from experience, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. We all have stories don't we?
I'm sure you have yours as well.
@@truman5838 What? How do you know that you were intelligent in the first place, before becoming more intelligent in order to dictate such absolutes?
Humanity is severely messed up, even young in-experienced children are seeing it. ? You make such claims instead of addressing what's harming innocent and helpless children? You realize harm but don't help stop it or even lessen it? Do you think you and the majority are not hurting innocent and helpless children right now?
Maybe I'll just fully contradict you by saying harms, especially ones that the majority don't see as harms, have damaged and are damaging and oppressed the majority. So much so that the majority can't or won't agree nor realize what harms are and entail; therefore perpetuate abusing and ruin innocent and helpless children.
So who's right? You sound like your argument is that harms are a good thing, when they aren't, because the're harms. ya?
Also just a lot of alone time.
where, do you think, she got that wisdom?
As a person with a disability myself, I can empathize with you about the challenges faced when growing up, going to school and trying to live a normal life.
It takes a lot of courage to face the world when you’re not the same as everyone else. But that just means you’re a lot more interesting and unique than most, and that’s never a bad thing.
Mom, " She's about to say her first word ... Toddler "Michael Schumacher!"
quick get her an f4 drive
As a big fan of michael this actually nice
Ha *pop*
Anita 7 time world champion confirmed???
Instantly the first thing I thought about at :46... maybe she’s a lowkey F1 fan
She has a great whistle. So clean and clear. It's like a phone notification. I want to hear her whistle a real song.
Exactly!
I looked at phone 😂
Bingo
Samee. Whenever she said she doesn’t tick while whistling led me to believe she can belt out tunes and I’d love to hear it!
It would be rad if she did the Kill Bill whistle
That tic at 7:00 is just adorable. She's very interesting and well spoken.
Sweet Anita is so cool, she raises so much awareness.
The way she just rolls with her ticks as she's talking completely minimise them, she's utterly charming.
She's gorgeous I mean who is the lucky one!!
Ikrrr
I've been in love with her ever since I switched to her on stream and she declared "spank my ass and fist my kitten".. I had to pick my jaw up from the floor... hell, even my wife loves her :)
