My brother has Tourette's syndrome, he's 12 and is having lots of problems. He's been depressed for a while because he's different from everyone else. He told me this video made him feel a lot better about himself.
Aside from all the Caspar fan girling etc I think it's really important to recognise and truly appreciate what this guy has done here. Often a small range of mental health issues are discussed on RUclips, usually around depression or anxiety but many neurological disorders are overlooked and are still taboo so, for someone like Caspar who's built his audience on a more comedic basis to speak out about such a hugely important topic is truly wonderful
I love it when RUclipsrs take a break from their usual content to talk about something that means a lot to them and that promotes positivity. I'm proud of you Caspar for having the courage to post this and I really admire you for it.
I have ADHD and when people try and talk to me it makes it look like I'm not listening but I find it really hard to listen and concentrate so this made me feel like I'm not alone thank you Casper
Same! Such a good thing that a youtuber like Casper has gone out his comfort zone to comfort others! You're a true legend Casper, thank you ❤ Everyone has gone through something that makes them who they are today!
@@grantnolan7128They’ve actually found that most people will still have subtle tics, even if it appears they have outgrown them. There has also been no longitudinal studies longer than 10 years even though there are a lot of accounts from adults who have had their tics return in middle age.
I didn't even know about this and I hadn't noticed until I watched this video and even after watching this I am still going to think of u in the same way or possibly as a stronger person. Good on you Casper and keep going strong!
I have Misophonia which is a little bit like tourettes. I twitch and shout whenever I hear a noise I'm "allergic" to. I have to sit out of class and take exams in a separate room because I'll disturb the other students and I won't be able to concentrate myself..it's nice to see a positive video about mental disorders....Thank you Caspar 😊
I have struggled with this too my whole life. It gets better, I promise. I now have a great job where I work from home and have been able to choose the sounds around me. Good luck!
First Lastname I suffer from OCD and everybody calls me miss perfect and if I see something out of order I sometimes can't control it. So thank you Casper aswell
I also have Misophonia and it's sooo hard for people to understand why I can't stand the noise they make. They just tell me to ignore it but I just can't even when it's the softest sound... I'm so glad there are more people who suffer from this!!
Really late to this but well done for talking about this caspar. Raising awareness of the spectrum of Tourettes syndrome and it's motor tics is so important, and how it's not simply shouting a curse! The drawings were ace too :)
I like how you're creating awareness about this. Being a psychology student I didn't know much about this. It's important for people to understand that these issues exist and making fun of people and being oblivious to them is not right. It's great to see that someone with such a platform is using their voice to create awareness. Thank you. I genuinely mean it.
Thank you for sharing your story. It's easy to judge people without knowing their story, it's easy to judge someone's act without seeing bigger picture. You for spreading the word about tourette and opening about something vulnerable is big thing, so thank you :)
Guys let's just appreciate the fact that Caspar made this video for us. It must have been really hard for him to do this, and It's lovely that he can put things like this up for us.❤️ we all love you sooo much Caspar ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Maisie I don't have terrets but I make weird noise that I can't stop doing. I find it very hard to read in silence so it is hard since I have sats coming up and I am scared about the reading test. I'm a good reader but I am petrified that someone will hear me and notice my weird "ticks"
I have Autism. Sometimes I just feel as if I'm a huge mistake. Just remeber Your dream doesn't have an expiration date God created Autism, Tourette's, Down Syndrom etc to decrease the excessive number of boring people on the earth.
Actually chocked to know that, and also kind of happy that you've shared this with us because you shouldn't be ashamed to be who you are. You've done a lot of amazing stuff in your life, and you should feel proud that you've done all of those things with Tourette's syndrome
Any one else seen Caspar's 2013 video called 'My Secret' where he says all this before?? Glad you're broadcasting to your large audience in a positive way talking about real life issues
Wow this a big surprise, I relate to the school part as I have tourettes, I swear, whistle, grunt a little, crack my knuckles, twitch my head and I get sent put of classes for whistling! But I have the support of my family and friends which makes me happy ;), I hope I grow out of it.
Brad Mace I'm not trying to be rude in the slightest but u won't 'grow out of it' as u said ur tics will calm down as u get older and they won't appear as much.
I have torrettes and my tics are grunting throat clearing swearing (coporaxia I think that's how you spell it)screaming and punching forwards /backwards and my family and school has helped me so much I do get so rude comments about my tics but thinking about my tourettes makes me special😊😊😊
Honestly, your pushing out a positive impact to everyone with or without tourettes and that is what a good RUclipsr is!! Thank u for giving me a bit of love today! ❤️❤️❤️
Ariana Burgh I figured out my Tourette's gets a little worse by the things I eat and drink. Watch out because the things you consume can really make a difference to your Tourette's and the urges to do a tick or a sound.
This is amazing, thanks for sharing your story it can help so many people. It's sad to see the comment section filled with non related bullshit so I hope you see this
I've struggled with Tourette's my whole life, my story is very similar to yours Caspar. It's hard when no one understands you have Tourette's, they think that you're just making noises to be annoying, but we can't help it. Thanks for making this 😊 Maybe more people will start to understand Tourette's. Edit: it also makes me so happy to see a RUclipsr who has Tourette's syndrome, I'm going to start my own RUclips channel very soon but I always worry people will see my Tourette's (although it's faded now since childhood) so thank youu
This is so upsetting! PLEASE READ: I remember when i was about 9 there was a boy in my class who had tourettes and he couldnt control his actions like you said. Everyone got mad at him and bullied him even some of the teachers as i guess none of them understood his situation. To this day i know people who dont understand and make fun of people like this who really cant help it. Its so wrong. I felt sorry for him and we became quite close friends. Over time we learnt how to deal with it and the people around us learnt how to accept it too! In the end people valued him and respected him. This shows you cant care what other people say when you have tourettes, if you want to move on in life. You dont need to accept them as over time they will accept you. I just wanted to tell this.
Louise Goulding Thank you :) I'm an adult now and my symptoms have faded but they're still there. I feel sorry for that poor kid in your class it's hard when not even the teachers understand! Thanks for being a nice person though and accepting him we need more people like you 👍🏻
Wow this is amazing. I personally also have Tourette's and it's been really hard. I also had the snorting one and I was called a pig at school for the longest time. My own grandma has been ashamed to be around me acting like a child even though I can't help it. My Tourette's has led to severe anxiety but this video has clearly given me hope. I understand. I get it I really really do. I thank you even though no one will see this. You are so successful and it gives me the hope that I can be too. Thank you😄😊
I feel the same I have it to, I know its hard and I personally hate talking about it but hopefully I get over that. your not alone- that is what probably gets me through each and every day
What an inspirational Video, Caspar. Thank-You! I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome in 2013, but had tics the majority of my life. I was seriously bullied for having them to the point I was in a very dark place, but as years gone by I'm proud of my quirks, and understanding it's great to be your own person. The experience made me stronger! The past year I've got them more under control after therapy sessions. Thanks for motivating and inspiring me. Keep up the awesome work pal and keep well!
Thank you for sharing this, someone needs it! I had Tourette's syndrome after I was given adderall as a kindergartner. Apparently no one really knows why Tourette's happens, but my uncle has it pretty bad.. and I got it after a medication! It subsided almost completely after puberty. The doctor said for males it usually gets worse and females they usually are able to suppress it. When watching videos about this syndrome or am around people with it, I do get that "scratch" to "tick". They are tiny, so like you said.. I can't imagine having it on a bigger scale. But know you're not alone! People that mind dont matter and people who matter don't mind! 😊
Caspar I know you probably won't see this but honestly I love your videos. And to know that you've suffered from this makes me feel terrible. Because your so positive I never knew this. It's great that your brave enough to tell this to the world and your my inspiration. As well as inspiring me to start youtube, your videos remind me and keep me happy. Love you, from your #1 fan
I have Tourette’s and it was so nice to see one of my favourite youtubers talking about his experience with Tourette’s. My Tourette’s is so severe I now can’t walk properly and have to use a wheelchair outside the house. It also affects my writing, eating, drinking and talking and it can be really bad. I also have echolalia, echopraxia, coprolalia and copropraxia. So my Tourette’s is annoying to deal with but videos like yours really have helped me cope :)
Well done Caspar! You ARE special because there is only 1 of you. Thank you for sharing with all of us. Only the people that had experience with tourettes, will really understand what you have to deal with every day. Love you!
Thank you for bringing awareness! I have Tourettes and always get strange looks from people. I hope more people will learn about it - I'm hoping my youtube channel will help with that too
This video must of been very hard to make, and I have autism and I get made fun of and this video helped me understand that not everyone is perfect 👌 so thank you Caspar for making this video
MandoAr I can't really say that it feels like anything, really. Like, I have no idea what it's like to not be on the autistic spectrum. Like, I do things that seem perfectly normal and reasonable to me, but others sometimes take offense or think that it's weird. I've been fortunate enough to have friends over the years, who could talk to me about it non-confrontationally, and help me become aware of some of my oddities, so I could get them better under control, and I've studied up and can identify with some of what I read, which makes me more aware.
Good for you for talking about it Caspar. It was a bit sad to watch at first but then you turned it around and told people how to be confident and not care what people think. Thank you for sharing! This is why we love you Caspar ❤️☺️
*Its amazing how you were able to share this with us, it couldn't have been easy and because of that I respect you so much* Thank You For Sharing Casper And Just Know As Your Fans We Will Continue To Support You ❤
I'm thinking of Joe's prank video when he jumped out of your wardrobe to scare you quite a while ago... When you said 'oh I have to clap' and said you needed to make a funny ringing noise when you were doing your intro... If that was to do with your Tourettes it really doesn't come across like that... At the time I thought it was funny and charming, but now I, wondering if maybe it wasn't? I guess these things make you the person your are and shape your personality. Thank you for sharing x
Courtney Jasper 'Ultimate Roommate Revenge Pranks' is Joe's prank video that it's in. I can't remember the name of the video that Caspar is filming in that but that footage is also in there.
thanks Caspar for sharing your story even tho i haven't been through this myself i took something from this. what i took away from this video is don't judge people for who they are 💙 love u Caspar
This was important. Thanks for being you and spreading awareness. I'm sososo proud of you and glad that you can inspire others to do the same. I've been watching your videos forever and love your content, but honestly this is one of my favourite videos 😊❤️
I was diagnosed with Tourette's when I was in first grade. I've had my fair share of breakdowns because of how much my tics have disturbed me in the past, but today I am actually really grateful for my tics. The motor tics have taught me to stay balanced mentally and physically, and to take things step by step. And to Caspar, I never guessed that you also had tics! Thank you for making this beautiful video... Not many of my friends know what Tourette's syndrome is and knowing that a youtuber I've looked up to for a loooong time is also in the same boat as me is pretty darn stress-relieving. Thank you.
Didn't expect that but I loved it ! This is amazing you had the courage to tell us about something so personal. I love you so much and I'm proud of you. Also, don't ever say you're not talented ! You're obviously where you are now thanks to your hard work but also thanks to your talent. Never underestimate yourself, you're amazing 😊
Zahid Candemir it's not weird it's being a real fan. If you aren't proud of him then just leave I'm not trying to start a fight but they love him and are proud that he has come this far in life. Just leave his channel if you're not proud and you don't like/love him. Go spread love not hate. ✌🏻️
4 of my family members have tourette syndrome, I have 5 brothers, 3 of them have tourettes and so does my mum. It's something that varies day to day, Stephen the youngest brother who is 2 years older than me, makes noises, Sam, 4 years older than me, swears, and tenses his wrist and neck a lot, my mum, tenses her arm often but it isn't that noticeable, Andy, 12/13 years older than me scrunches his eyes, I also have tourettes, which is clicking at the back of my throat, and squinting when I can see, also crossing my arms and kicking my leg out when I feel I have to. Tourette's is a subject very close to my family and my friends, we have lost jobs from this and I have lost friends, those who don't want to understand shouldn't be in your life. Be happy and true to your self! I love you casper
caspar you are so special. you're so incredibly inspirational and this shows such awareness. you're an amazing person and don't let anyone tell you otherwise :)
I truly admire you for being able to share this with us, Caspar. It takes a brave soul to do something like this. You've really showed everybody that you can achieve your dreams no matter what. x ❤️❤️
This video is so, so important to me, for so many reasons. Firstly it shines a light on and creates awareness of a disorder, too often ignored. And secondly, it really gives me hope, as someone with tourettes. Currently mine is at a stage where I'm just beginning to develop swearing tics and tics that are almost seizure like, shaking, spasming, being unable to even walk. I spend most of my time suppressing my tics and trying to downplay how frustrating and serious my disorder can be. I always worry that it won't get better, that I'll always be hindered by this, that I'll never be able to have a relationship, because I'll never want to tic freely around someone. But the fact that you have suffered through the same syndrome and managed to come out of it so successful, confident and content, seriously puts my mind at ease. I don't think my tourettes will ever deplete to your level, but I think that one day I'll be more comfortable in accepting that if others will judge me for it, they're not the people I would care to impress anyway. And to know that tourettes has not limited you in anything you have set out to do gives me so much hope.
Thank you caspar lee I appreciate that you had the guts to create This video ,as many people wouldn't even think about putting this sort of thing in RUclips or online . Carry on doing what you are doing and dont let the struggles or bad things stop you from doing what you enjoy. Love from erin
I use to watch this channel back from 2013-2015. I dont watch Caspar anymore but i saw this video suggested to me recently. Ive grown up with my dad having tourettes my whole life and ive just been use to his tics to the point that i barely notice them. Ever since i started watching this channel, i noticed that there was something familiar with how Caspar acted. I realise now that he reminds me of my dad. My dads tourettes were super bad when he was younger but now his tics have dulled down. He still tics a lot but its not the worst its been. I really appreciate you for sharing your story, youre not alone in this situation. Thank you
Caspar I frickin love you. I love that you're not just making this to show show off that you have this disorder. Caspar, if you're reading this, You're an amazing person thanks for making this touching video
I went through a similar time, I couldn't stop fidgeting and making weird noises but I got through it but some people have it so hard in the world and I feel so bad for them
Having Tourette's myself this video really hits me right in the feels. It's not very often that I see people bringing awareness to Tourette's Syndrome, so it really means a lot to have someone as big as Caspar Lee talk openly about it and spreading awareness to everyone. I remember when I found out that Caspar had TS as well and I felt a bit more normal, because I never heard of anyone besides myself who had it. Hoping to spread more awareness toward it. Thanks Caspar!
I don't understand why people have to say this.... Maybe s/he is new, maybe they don't know the in's and out's of Caspars life.. Maybe you could just answer the question instead of having to be a smart ass know it all
Gemma Cairns excuse me? Don't call me a smart ass know it all. Anyone who has been watching joe and Caspar for at least the last month should know that they used to be roommates. So if they haven't been watching for that long, they are new. so full of yourself 🙄
Full of myself? Haha, okay then. I'm not the one who felt I had to answer a question with "You must be new". If she IS new then enlighten her instead of being so impertinent.
No matter who you are or what you have we will all love you and adore you through your RUclips career because you are kind, funny and unique so thank you 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
I feel so lucky to be apart of a generation that ahas access to these kinds of videos to help you understand what others go through or to feel more comfortable with what you go through yourself! Thank you for making this video Caspar!
I recently developed an anxiety related ticcing disorder and its been really tough dealing with what other people think and managing these movements. Mental health and functional disorders are things that people don't really talk about but that just makes it more difficult to deal with because you feel like you're alone. I applaud you, Caspar, for discussing your syndrome with such a wide audience and for being so open about it. Thank you. For me personally, it really does help knowing that there are people out there who also struggle with similar things.
Caspar this has literally brought tears to my eyes! I love this and that you want to spread awareness! You deserve every subscriber you get and you deserve so much credit for this! ILY! ❤️❤️
did anyone actually know about this before ? but we love you Casper and nothing can change that! be happy, and don't worry because we're all behind you. 💕💕
Hi Caspar, just wanted to thank you for sharing this with us all. I've never heard of Tourette's before but my friend messaged me today telling me she started university and this guy in her class kept making noises while the teacher was talking. She said it was loud and annoying and the teacher told them to ignore the noise he is making. It made me sad and I told her to come on here and watch this video. I told her to watch this and please don't treat him any different to any other class members, he can't control it. I'm thankful for you sharing this Caspar. God bless always xox
The Jaspar car plate tho 😂 EDIT: In all seriousness, this is such a big deal and I am so proud of Caspar for sharing this with us. This is extremely inspiring. Thank you so much, and always know that we are here for you Caspar ❤️
i have tourette and it's a family thing we've all struggled a lot but this made me so happy because it shows even with tourette people can be so successful and mental health is an issue not an identity and if you try and focus you can overcome whatever it is. i actually started crying during this just because i've struggled SO much with tourette, anxiety, ocd etc and this shows it doesn't control the person struggling. thank you so much caspar thank you for sitting down and making a serious video it might not seem like a big deal but it means the world to me :))
Hey Harry, my mum had a severe stroke when I was 9 and I'm now 17, she can no longer speak and her mobility is continuing to deteriorate but I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone! Stay strong, it will get easier xx
I am so sorry and I am praying for you and your family. My mum had a stroke when I was 10 and it was awful, my whole family was really messed up because of it. I'm lucky in that my mum came out with very few disabilities (she has a speaking impediment and trouble with her memory), but she is certain the main reason she didn't end up worse because me and my family stayed so strong for her and inspired her to work so hard to get better. Please stay strong, you're not alone. x
Harry Mitchell I hope your dad is doing ok, I know how awful the impact it has on the people around you. My mum had a stroke when I was 5, I'm now 18 and things do get better. It will take time to come to terms with the change, depending on how the stoke has effected your dad, but you do learn how to overcome the shock and ultimately help out with what they need. It's so lovely to see other people commenting, and talking about a stroke in the family from their perspective, it shows you aren't alone!! Stay strong.. for your dad and your family x x
Harry Mitchell . Hope he recoveres . my grandfather had a stroke a few years back , although i was only little i still vividly remember visiting him in hospital , it was a very hard time for the family . He had to learn to do everything again . so hope he gets well soon .
Thank you so much for this video Caspar! I'm feeling so much better about my Tourettes when I see other people with TS succeeding in what they do in life. I wish I had seen these people when I was 13 and felt alone. I hope young and insecure people with TS will find these types of videos and feel more confident. You're not alone
My brother has Tourette's syndrome, he's 12 and is having lots of problems. He's been depressed for a while because he's different from everyone else. He told me this video made him feel a lot better about himself.
Phoenix I wish your brother the best.
Phoenix Do comfort him for me please!
Phoenix I hope he finds the confidence to accept and love everything that makes him special
Phoenix aww poor bby
Phoenix hope he gets better
Aside from all the Caspar fan girling etc I think it's really important to recognise and truly appreciate what this guy has done here. Often a small range of mental health issues are discussed on RUclips, usually around depression or anxiety but many neurological disorders are overlooked and are still taboo so, for someone like Caspar who's built his audience on a more comedic basis to speak out about such a hugely important topic is truly wonderful
JesuisHani can you please subscribe to my youtube channel
JesuisHani yea exactly what I was thinking, I have ocd and it's rarely discussed as much as anxiety or depression. glad he made this video
JesuisHani Exactly!! Caspar rocks
i understand
its not a good thing too have ocd adhd and Tourette syndrome at the same time. if u know what i mean ;D and this video definenetly summed up alot.
I love it when RUclipsrs take a break from their usual content to talk about something that means a lot to them and that promotes positivity. I'm proud of you Caspar for having the courage to post this and I really admire you for it.
Its called running out of ideas
INCAGNITOHDD alot of people seem to like it and it's very well done, seems like a good idea to me. where have your endless ideas gotten you?
INCAGNITOHDD That's rude
Stef C same it warms my heart when they upload videos like this ❤
INCAGNITOHDD That is extremely rude how dare you
I have ADHD and when people try and talk to me it makes it look like I'm not listening but I find it really hard to listen and concentrate so this made me feel like I'm not alone thank you Casper
Same, I have tourettes and ADHD
Same!
have adhd aswell try medication it actually does help
Emma Webb me to I have it to I also have epilepsy and autism and special needs

Thank you! that name does ring a bell now for youtubers draw my life etc
kes browne grant drew it, it says at the end
Honestly shocked that this wasn't a funny skit of some sort but I love that Caspar is bringing awareness to this💓
Brooke M Richards he's amazing
we have the same thing, i hope this video will bring light onto it and help to stop people using tourettes as something bully people about ❤️
Brooke Richards hi
Brooke Richards o
Brooke M Richards your acting like tourettes is unknown.
Wow. I never noticed any tics on his videos. Great that He's bringing awareness to this disorder!
He's one of the lucky few who's tic's have subsided
Deja Hatchett he mostly grew out of his Tourette’s
I don't think he tics at all anymore. Or he might just edit his tics out.
@@grantnolan7128They’ve actually found that most people will still have subtle tics, even if it appears they have outgrown them. There has also been no longitudinal studies longer than 10 years even though there are a lot of accounts from adults who have had their tics return in middle age.
I didn't even notice and I don't think anything different of u then when I didn't know
i was gonna like your comment but it says 666 so...
Gabriel Vendramini hi
i love this video so much :)

I didn't even know about this and I hadn't noticed until I watched this video and even after watching this I am still going to think of u in the same way or possibly as a stronger person. Good on you Casper and keep going strong!
I cant stop smiling. Caspar you inspire me to never give up my passion which is RUclips and I know I'm not the only one! :)
Gerard Maxwell, I just checked out your covers, they are really good! :) I'm glad Casper inspires you he inspires me too. Don't ever give up :)
he inspires me to
Gerard Maxwell I
I have Misophonia which is a little bit like tourettes. I twitch and shout whenever I hear a noise I'm "allergic" to. I have to sit out of class and take exams in a separate room because I'll disturb the other students and I won't be able to concentrate myself..it's nice to see a positive video about mental disorders....Thank you Caspar 😊
I have struggled with this too my whole life. It gets better, I promise. I now have a great job where I work from home and have been able to choose the sounds around me. Good luck!
First Lastname I suffer from OCD and everybody calls me miss perfect and if I see something out of order I sometimes can't control it. So thank you Casper aswell
I struggle with that to... and people tell me to ignore the souds, but it's sooo hard...
I also have Misophonia and it's sooo hard for people to understand why I can't stand the noise they make. They just tell me to ignore it but I just can't even when it's the softest sound... I'm so glad there are more people who suffer from this!!
I have misophonia and I agree that it is so hard when people misunderstand it and think that I'm just dramatic :/
lets appreciate that the van on 2:03 says jaspar
Ann Tash I noticed that
Ann Tash i noticed that too :p that's adorable
Finally,a comment that is related to video
4:25 the pineapple computer
Ann Tash ye
Really late to this but well done for talking about this caspar. Raising awareness of the spectrum of Tourettes syndrome and it's motor tics is so important, and how it's not simply shouting a curse! The drawings were ace too :)
I like how you're creating awareness about this. Being a psychology student I didn't know much about this.

Maisie I
Maisie Sorry what's terrettes
Maisie yeah definitely ♥️♥️♥️
Maisie I don't have terrets but I make weird noise that I can't stop doing. I find it very hard to read in silence so it is hard since I have sats coming up and I am scared about the reading test. I'm a good reader but I am petrified that someone will hear me and notice my weird "ticks"
Holli _Bat_Xxx It says in the description box
I have Autism. Sometimes I just feel as if I'm a huge mistake.
Just remeber
Your dream doesn't have an expiration date
God created Autism, Tourette's, Down Syndrom etc to decrease the excessive number of boring people on the earth.
Zofia Frazier your not a mistake x
Liobi1 Slasher
lmao wtf
Liobi1 Slasher
what
I have autism too and I have the same reason
Actually it's because Adam and Eve commited sin
Actually chocked to know that, and also kind of happy that you've shared this with us because you shouldn't be ashamed to be who you are. You've done a lot of amazing stuff in your life, and you should feel proud that you've done all of those things with Tourette's syndrome
manona martin can you please subscribe to my youtube channel
HussainAliGamer I'm gonna report you you don't care about anything
This was so moving Caspar, you are so strong and I'm so proud of how far you have come, your amazing 😊
*You're
Harry Carden aha
Any one else seen Caspar's 2013 video called 'My Secret' where he says all this before?? Glad you're broadcasting to your large audience in a positive way talking about real life issues
Wow this a big surprise, I relate to the school part as I have tourettes, I swear, whistle, grunt a little, crack my knuckles, twitch my head and I get sent put of classes for whistling! But I have the support of my family and friends which makes me happy ;), I hope I grow out of it.
Brad Mace I'm not trying to
be rude in the slightest but u won't 'grow out of it' as u said ur tics will calm down as u get older and they won't appear as much.
Brad Mace I have it to
I have torrettes and my tics are grunting throat clearing swearing (coporaxia I think that's how you spell it)screaming and punching forwards /backwards and my family and school has helped me so much I do get so rude comments about my tics but thinking about my tourettes makes me special😊😊😊
Shit😂like I have a whole lot of tics aswell...but I never knew that cracking my knuckles was one(which I do veeeeery very often😂)
I can relate :(
Honestly, your pushing out a positive impact to everyone with or without tourettes and that is what a good RUclipsr is!! Thank u for giving me a bit of love today! ❤️❤️❤️
The car number plate was Jaspar. .. love the vid
That's so sad 😢 My psychology class just went over this disorder, it's really sad that people can't control this. You're amazing!!
That's super cool that you are learning about it at school!
Caspar I love you🙂❤
Caspar i love you so much honestly!!!!
my friend used to have it, he got bullied and I was always there for him! this is our time and were always here for you Caspar!
tourettes is a life long disorder. you can't "used to have it". it doesn't go away, but treatment can improve the severity of the tics.
I thank Caspar for sharing this with us! I have Tourette's and no one understands when I tell them the urge will not go away to make sounds.
Ariana Burgh I figured out my Tourette's gets a little worse by the things I eat and drink. Watch out because the things you consume can really make a difference to your Tourette's and the urges to do a tick or a sound.
Lurcher thanks! I haven't really dug deep into what actually makes my Tourette's worst, and neither has my doctor! But u will definitely watch out
This is amazing, thanks for sharing your story it can help so many people. It's sad to see the comment section filled with non related bullshit so I hope you see this
thanks for your kind words :)
you are the best
Caspar Don't worry you can share anything with us!

Katie K exactly
I've struggled with Tourette's my whole life, my story is very similar to yours Caspar. It's hard when no one understands you have Tourette's, they think that you're just making noises to be annoying, but we can't help it. Thanks for making this 😊 Maybe more people will start to understand Tourette's.
Edit: it also makes me so happy to see a RUclipsr who has Tourette's syndrome, I'm going to start my own RUclips channel very soon but I always worry people will see my Tourette's (although it's faded now since childhood) so thank youu
This is so upsetting!
PLEASE READ:
I remember when i was about 9 there was a boy in my class who had tourettes and he couldnt control his actions like you said. Everyone got mad at him and bullied him even some of the teachers as i guess none of them understood his situation. To this day i know people who dont understand and make fun of people like this who really cant help it. Its so wrong. I felt sorry for him and we became quite close friends. Over time we learnt how to deal with it and the people around us learnt how to accept it too! In the end people valued him and respected him. This shows you cant care what other people say when you have tourettes, if you want to move on in life. You dont need to accept them as over time they will accept you.
I just wanted to tell this.
Louise Goulding Thank you :) I'm an adult now and my symptoms have faded but they're still there. I feel sorry for that poor kid in your class it's hard when not even the teachers understand! Thanks for being a nice person though and accepting him we need more people like you 👍🏻
Chloe Mcphee That's horrible 😩
Wow this is amazing.
I personally also have Tourette's and it's been really hard.
I also had the snorting one and I was called a pig at school for the longest time.
My own grandma has been ashamed to be around me acting like a child even though I can't help it.
My Tourette's has led to severe anxiety but this video has clearly given me hope. I understand. I get it I really really do. I thank you even though no one will see this. You are so successful and it gives me the hope that I can be too. Thank you😄😊
Brittany Delia your not alone I have it to Xxx
I feel the same I have it to, I know its hard and I personally hate talking about it but hopefully I get over that. your not alone- that is what probably gets me through each and every day
Lovely to see you promoting a positive message Caspar 😇 using your platform for good! Very inspirational! Thank you
Really enjoyed
GeorgeMasonTV omg I love your channel!!😂❤
I literally had no idea you had Tourette's Caspar!! This is a beautiful video x
Mollie Williams tbh I think over 90% of his subscribers had no idea
What an inspirational Video, Caspar. Thank-You! I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome in 2013, but had tics the majority of my life. I was seriously bullied for having them to the point I was in a very dark place, but as years gone by I'm proud of my quirks, and understanding it's great to be your own person. The experience made me stronger! The past year I've got them more under control after therapy sessions. Thanks for motivating and inspiring me. Keep up the awesome work pal and keep well!
Thank you for sharing this, someone needs it! I had Tourette's syndrome after I was given adderall as a kindergartner. Apparently no one really knows why Tourette's happens, but my uncle has it pretty bad.. and I got it after a medication! It subsided almost completely after puberty. The doctor said for males it usually gets worse and females they usually are able to suppress it. When watching videos about this syndrome or am around people with it, I do get that "scratch" to "tick". They are tiny, so like you said.. I can't imagine having it on a bigger scale. But know you're not alone! People that mind dont matter and people who matter don't mind! 😊
Caspar I know you probably won't see this but honestly I love your videos. And to know that you've suffered from this makes me feel terrible. Because your so positive I never knew this. It's great that your brave enough to tell this to the world and your my inspiration. As well as inspiring me to start youtube, your videos remind me and keep me happy. Love you, from your #1 fan
Love you Caspar

David And Liza I don't think she's verified I think she just put a tick emoji next to her name
I'm so proud of Casper for talking about this! He's so amazing and I'm so happy that he's bringing awareness to this!!
Life As A Directioner can you please subscribe to my youtube channel
fuck off Hussain
I have Tourette’s and it was so nice to see one of my favourite youtubers talking about his experience with Tourette’s. My Tourette’s is so severe I now can’t walk properly and have to use a wheelchair outside the house. It also affects my writing, eating, drinking and talking and it can be really bad. I also have echolalia, echopraxia, coprolalia and copropraxia. So my Tourette’s is annoying to deal with but videos like yours really have helped me cope :)
I did not expect this when I clicked on the video. Thanks for sharing your story!
Mathia neither did I
I never noticed or paid attention to it!
You know what I think is sad?
How cas has talked about this and most the comments are just trying to get likes
Yes that's exactly what I was thinking. This is serious and people are selfish
GalaxyLass agreed!
GalaxyLass like if you agree
GalaxyLass that is so true
it's true
Well done Caspar! You ARE special because there is only 1 of you. Thank you for sharing with all of us. Only the people that had experience with tourettes, will really understand what you have to deal with every day. Love you!
Thank you for bringing awareness! I have Tourettes and always get strange looks from people. I hope more people will learn about it - I'm hoping my youtube channel will help with that too
This video must of been very hard to make, and I have autism and I get made fun of and this video helped me understand that not everyone is perfect 👌 so thank you Caspar for making this video
Same glad I'm not alone I feel it sometimes
Juliet Carr same here
MandoAr I can't really say that it feels like anything, really. Like, I have no idea what it's like to not be on the autistic spectrum. Like, I do things that seem perfectly normal and reasonable to me, but others sometimes take offense or think that it's weird. I've been fortunate enough to have friends over the years, who could talk to me about it non-confrontationally, and help me become aware of some of my oddities, so I could get them better under control, and I've studied up and can identify with some of what I read, which makes me more aware.
Josh Smith Oh gosh I didn't don't want this to sound wrong... But it basically feels "normal"?
Juliet Carr my brother does and it's hard to see him being picked on
Good for you for talking about it Caspar. It was a bit sad to watch at first but then you turned it around and told people how to be confident and not care what people think. Thank you for sharing! This is why we love you Caspar ❤️☺️
Your such a kind person Caspar and no matter what you have, nobody should ever look at you differently❤
LifeWithKristen *you're, but agreed
LifeWithKristen And we have people like you who have to correct everybody. :/ Nobody is perfect..
really important that we have more representation in the media of people like you! this is a really nice video :)
*Its amazing how you were able to share this with us, it couldn't have been easy and because of that I respect you so much*
Thank You For Sharing Casper And Just Know As Your Fans We Will Continue To Support You ❤
Wow Reza ur videos are jokes 😂. subbed for sure
Reza Tube nice comment but his name is spelt Caspar not Casper
I was gonna like your comment but then I realised that you wrote Caspar with an 'e' soo .....
I LOVE YOUR VIDS REZA
ahaha same xxx
There's no such thing as a "normal Caspar video," thank God.
P.s. I love the pineapple on your computer.
wolver73 what pineapple
Quality Video, takes a lot of guts to share this! Well done mate
I'm thinking of Joe's prank video when he jumped out of your wardrobe to scare you quite a while ago...
When you said 'oh I have to clap' and said you needed to make a funny ringing noise when you were doing your intro...
If that was to do with your Tourettes it really doesn't come across like that... At the time I thought it was funny and charming, but now I, wondering if maybe it wasn't? I guess these things make you the person your are and shape your personality.
Thank you for sharing x
Pixie- Rose what video was that?
Courtney Jasper 'Ultimate Roommate Revenge Pranks' is Joe's prank video that it's in. I can't remember the name of the video that Caspar is filming in that but that footage is also in there.
he claps to sync the audio up with the video, lots of youtubers do it. It's just so they know when to edit the video.
katherine ellie you feel when u are about to Do a tick so u Can Do that
I thought about that toooo omg
Aww Caspar, so proud of u❤❤❤
Caspar I love you
+Caspar if you reply to this it will make my day
Rossi Boy don't we all send that comment. you need to give him something to reply to!
Connie Thoburn i am so proud to i never expected it
thanks Caspar for sharing your story even tho i haven't been through this myself i took something from this. what i took away from this video is don't judge people for who they are 💙 love u Caspar
Isobel Soper can you please subscribe to my youtube channel
Hussain, stop spamming your channel you moron
Isobel Soper I fricking love your profile picture I love HTTYD
Dragon Kitty thanks
Isobel Soper ur welcome it is adorable
This was important. Thanks for being you and spreading awareness. I'm sososo proud of you and glad that you can inspire others to do the same. I've been watching your videos forever and love your content, but honestly this is one of my favourite videos 😊❤️
I was diagnosed with Tourette's when I was in first grade. I've had my fair share of breakdowns because of how much my tics have disturbed me in the past, but today I am actually really grateful for my tics. The motor tics have taught me to stay balanced mentally and physically, and to take things step by step.
And to Caspar, I never guessed that you also had tics! Thank you for making this beautiful video... Not many of my friends know what Tourette's syndrome is and knowing that a youtuber I've looked up to for a loooong time is also in the same boat as me is pretty darn stress-relieving. Thank you.
I didn't even know Caspar! Thank you for sharing your story this is so important and needs more awareness xx love your Caspar x
Didn't expect that but I loved it ! This is amazing you had the courage to tell us about something so personal.
I love you so much and I'm proud of you.
Also, don't ever say you're not talented ! You're obviously where you are now thanks to your hard work but also thanks to your talent. Never underestimate yourself, you're amazing 😊
Zahid Candemir it's not weird it's being a real fan. If you aren't proud of him then just leave I'm not trying to start a fight but they love him and are proud that he has come this far in life. Just leave his channel if you're not proud and you don't like/love him. Go spread love not hate. ✌🏻️
Girly_Girl_Savannah exactly, thank you 😊
JASPAR on the license plate of the car! Who else noticed this?
J.J. Medusa lmao I️ was looking for this comment
Me.
4 of my family members have tourette syndrome, I have 5 brothers, 3 of them have tourettes and so does my mum. It's something that varies day to day, Stephen the youngest brother who is 2 years older than me, makes noises, Sam, 4 years older than me, swears, and tenses his wrist and neck a lot, my mum, tenses her arm often but it isn't that noticeable, Andy, 12/13 years older than me scrunches his eyes, I also have tourettes, which is clicking at the back of my throat, and squinting when I can see, also crossing my arms and kicking my leg out when I feel I have to. Tourette's is a subject very close to my family and my friends, we have lost jobs from this and I have lost friends, those who don't want to understand shouldn't be in your life. Be happy and true to your self! I love you casper
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CASPARR LEEE❤️❤️ FROM FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD, WE ALL LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!
We'll always support you, Caspar, no matter what ❤️
It must've been hard to tell us this, but I'm so proud of you for working so hard to make us smile.
😇❤️
And we'll always support you
Honestly Caspar, I never even noticed and probably never would have if you didnt mention it!❤
caspar you are so special. you're so incredibly inspirational and this shows such awareness. you're an amazing person and don't let anyone tell you otherwise :)
I think he meant, we're all special, so no one's more special ... the word special has no meaning if we're all special ...
ɪɴғɪɴɪᴛʏ I agree!
ɪɴғɪɴɪᴛʏ I
You're such an inspiration.. so proud😍
saranerd
IKR! this will inspire and help many ppl! 😊
Not really an inspiration... 1 in every 360 in the US along has it.
Cooltrain ik but I apprectiate the fact that he openly talked about it in a video
I truly admire you for being able to share this with us, Caspar. It takes a brave soul to do something like this. You've really showed everybody that you can achieve your dreams no matter what. x ❤️❤️
This video is so, so important to me, for so many reasons. Firstly it shines a light on and creates awareness of a disorder, too often ignored. And secondly, it really gives me hope, as someone with tourettes. Currently mine is at a stage where I'm just beginning to develop swearing tics and tics that are almost seizure like, shaking, spasming, being unable to even walk. I spend most of my time suppressing my tics and trying to downplay how frustrating and serious my disorder can be. I always worry that it won't get better, that I'll always be hindered by this, that I'll never be able to have a relationship, because I'll never want to tic freely around someone. But the fact that you have suffered through the same syndrome and managed to come out of it so successful, confident and content, seriously puts my mind at ease. I don't think my tourettes will ever deplete to your level, but I think that one day I'll be more comfortable in accepting that if others will judge me for it, they're not the people I would care to impress anyway. And to know that tourettes has not limited you in anything you have set out to do gives me so much hope.
Thank you caspar lee I appreciate that you had the guts to create
This video ,as many people wouldn't even think about putting this sort of thing in RUclips or online .
Carry on doing what you are doing and dont let the struggles or bad things stop you from doing what you enjoy.
Love from erin
omg this really touched me and made me sit and think, im so proud of you for making this
molly drew you haven't watched it all yet
molly drew if i get 1000 subs before summer my dad will stop smoking so pls sub thank you!!!!
So much respect for you Caspar! Thanks for sharing your story 💜
I use to watch this channel back from 2013-2015. I dont watch Caspar anymore but i saw this video suggested to me recently. Ive grown up with my dad having tourettes my whole life and ive just been use to his tics to the point that i barely notice them. Ever since i started watching this channel, i noticed that there was something familiar with how Caspar acted. I realise now that he reminds me of my dad. My dads tourettes were super bad when he was younger but now his tics have dulled down. He still tics a lot but its not the worst its been. I really appreciate you for sharing your story, youre not alone in this situation. Thank you
Was it just me that saw the jaspar number plate on the car at 2:07 ?
ahhhhhh i cant the feels
Naomi Thornton jaspAr
Naomi Thornton jaspAr
Yassss
Wasn't that weird?!
Caspar I frickin love you. I love that you're not just making this to show show off that you have this disorder. Caspar, if you're reading this, You're an amazing person thanks for making this touching video
I went through a similar time, I couldn't stop fidgeting and making weird noises but I got through it but some people have it so hard in the world and I feel so bad for them
That Girl Madison jesus christ he had a mild discomfort growing up it's not like his mom died.
That Girl Madison STOP TRYING TO GET BLOODY LIKES AND STOP THE CHEESY COMMENTS!!!
Sophie Smithard Im not
Having Tourette's myself this video really hits me right in the feels. It's not very often that I see people bringing awareness to Tourette's Syndrome, so it really means a lot to have someone as big as Caspar Lee talk openly about it and spreading awareness to everyone.
I remember when I found out that Caspar had TS as well and I felt a bit more normal, because I never heard of anyone besides myself who had it. Hoping to spread more awareness toward it. Thanks Caspar!
I cried when I saw JASPAR on the bumper plate 😔 love this video ❤️
Madeleine Eve why
Wakw you must be new
I don't understand why people have to say this.... Maybe s/he is new, maybe they don't know the in's and out's of Caspars life.. Maybe you could just answer the question instead of having to be a smart ass know it all
Gemma Cairns excuse me? Don't call me a smart ass know it all. Anyone who has been watching joe and Caspar for at least the last month should know that they used to be roommates. So if they haven't been watching for that long, they are new. so full of yourself 🙄
Full of myself? Haha, okay then. I'm not the one who felt I had to answer a question with "You must be new". If she IS new then enlighten her instead of being so impertinent.
Did anyone actually know about this or just finding out now? 😧
Chloe Burrows known it from his book
Chloe Burrows it's in his book and he made another video a while back about it :))
Casper fans know about it. not sure about you guys.
Holli's world ahhh right
+EMMA QUIGLEY ohhhhh savaaage
No matter who you are or what you have we will all love you and adore you through your RUclips career because you are kind, funny and unique so thank you 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
I feel so lucky to be apart of a generation that ahas access to these kinds of videos to help you understand what others go through or to feel more comfortable with what you go through yourself! Thank you for making this video Caspar!
We love you Casper and nothing can change that! Be happy, and don't worry because we're all behind you. 💕💕
Leshelle Z caspAr
*cas 😍😍*
Naasir Void i love you omg
That really opened my eyes of what it really meant
I recently developed an anxiety related ticcing disorder and its been really tough dealing with what other people think and managing these movements.
Mental health and functional disorders are things that people don't really talk about but that just makes it more difficult to deal with because you feel like you're alone.
I applaud you, Caspar, for discussing your syndrome with such a wide audience and for being so open about it. Thank you. For me personally, it really does help knowing that there are people out there who also struggle with similar things.
Ily Caspar!!! Thanks for sharing your story!!
This is why I love you, you always talk about important subjects, lot of respect 💕
Caspar this has literally brought tears to my eyes! I love this and that you want to spread awareness! You deserve every subscriber you get and you deserve so much credit for this! ILY! ❤️❤️
did anyone actually know about this before ? but we love you Casper and nothing can change that! be happy, and don't worry because we're all behind you. 💕💕
I loved this. Thank you for sharing
I love this Caspar, I'm, as everyone else is, so proud of you for sharing this x
Did anyone else realise at 1:58 the car plate said jasper!!!!!
JaspAr😂😂
Cheeky Panda no I saw jaspAr
Cheeky Panda Tass haha
why
Hi Caspar, just wanted to thank you for sharing this with us all. I've never heard of Tourette's before but my friend messaged me today telling me she started university and this guy in her class kept making noises while the teacher was talking. She said it was loud and annoying and the teacher told them to ignore the noise he is making. It made me sad and I told her to come on here and watch this video. I told her to watch this and please don't treat him any different to any other class members, he can't control it. I'm thankful for you sharing this Caspar. God bless always xox
This is actually so weird but I was watching a bunch of videos on Tourette's and I was even watching Caspar's old video on it and then he posted this.
Me too, he uploaded it as I was watching those videos. That is so weird! x
Ikr same, I came across one video about this syndrome like yesterday, so weiiird. Oh well ._.
Proud of you Caspar 💛 thank you for making this video c:
The Jaspar car plate tho 😂
EDIT: In all seriousness, this is such a big deal and I am so proud of Caspar for sharing this with us. This is extremely inspiring. Thank you so much, and always know that we are here for you Caspar ❤️
SS PHAN yes lollll
i have tourette and it's a family thing we've all struggled a lot but this made me so happy because it shows even with tourette people can be so successful and mental health is an issue not an identity and if you try and focus you can overcome whatever it is. i actually started crying during this just because i've struggled SO much with tourette, anxiety, ocd etc and this shows it doesn't control the person struggling. thank you so much caspar thank you for sitting down and making a serious video it might not seem like a big deal but it means the world to me :))
I didn't even know, we are all here for you Caspar ❤️
HI Caspar i'm 12 and my dad just had a stroke and my family was hit very hard by it. this video really helped so THANKYOU!!!!
Hey Harry, my mum had a severe stroke when I was 9 and I'm now 17, she can no longer speak and her mobility is continuing to deteriorate but I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone! Stay strong, it will get easier xx
I am so sorry and I am praying for you and your family. My mum had a stroke when I was 10 and it was awful, my whole family was really messed up because of it. I'm lucky in that my mum came out with very few disabilities (she has a speaking impediment and trouble with her memory), but she is certain the main reason she didn't end up worse because me and my family stayed so strong for her and inspired her to work so hard to get better. Please stay strong, you're not alone. x
Harry Mitchell I hope your dad is doing ok, I know how awful the impact it has on the people around you. My mum had a stroke when I was 5, I'm now 18 and things do get better. It will take time to come to terms with the change, depending on how the stoke has effected your dad, but you do learn how to overcome the shock and ultimately help out with what they need. It's so lovely to see other people commenting, and talking about a stroke in the family from their perspective, it shows you aren't alone!! Stay strong.. for your dad and your family x x
Hope he gets well soon, stay strong
Harry Mitchell . Hope he recoveres . my grandfather had a stroke a few years back , although i was only little i still vividly remember visiting him in hospital , it was a very hard time for the family . He had to learn to do everything again . so hope he gets well soon .
casper you are so amazing doing this!
Thank you so much for this video Caspar!
I'm feeling so much better about my Tourettes when I see other people with TS succeeding in what they do in life. I wish I had seen these people when I was 13 and felt alone. I hope young and insecure people with TS will find these types of videos and feel more confident. You're not alone
