it's okay to laugh as long as you don't feel you're being cruel. I couldn't help laughing either like when she called the people waiting for the bus "bus wankers".
I feel for Ruth. Her tics seem to get worse the more nervous she gets. Or the more conscious she becomes of people watching and listening. She's a beautiful person. I adore her.
Ruth has such a beautiful soul. Its impossible to explain Tourettes to every single person who walks by you on the street, sits in the subway or in the stores. She handles peoples reactions very well. I think I would be so annoyed at having to explain something so personal to every person who asks day after day I would punch someone. So glad the singing helps- heard the same with a few other people with this syndrome and hope research is made into this connection because it is one of the few promising avenues for relief. 💗
Can't help but be concerned for her safety 😳 One day someone will probably take offence to something she says and attack her, & there's nothing she can do about it 😢
Yeah it can happen and I'm worried too. For example one day with my boyfriend we were at a shop and my boyfriend spoke to the cashier with his hand in front of his mouth (he likes touching his beard a lot). He was angry because she didn't understand him properly. I knew what was going on so I took over. When we got out, I told him the cashier was hearing impaired. He felt so bad he went back to her to apologize.
That's what I would have thought. So glad to be learning about this. My heart goes out to people living with tourettes. They need caring people in their lives. Definitely will think different towards others
Thank you so much :) My 6 year old son has been diagnosed with tics and now ,this year, it seems Tourettes. It has been so hard for both of us. I ignore his tics and let him tic away merrily :) and he even says sorry to me, if he uses the F word, bless him. You are an Angel, your confidence and ability to shine has given me great hope for my son's future, as he too is bold, bubbly and beautiful, like you. Thank you :) x
Such a brave video to show so many kinds of tics one can have on a daily basis! She seems to have a pretty positive attitude about it as well which is uplifting!
Even after she explained her condition and he stated he was aware what Tourette's was. No compassion or understanding; as if she was purposely be being rude and offensive. I imagine it must be exhausting having that condition.
The level of self confidence you have is unfathomable. And it’s inspiring. I’m sorry I found your tic comments funny but with that being said, I think you’re an amazing person.
A great woman. I've seen her on many shows and I've learnt so much about TS from her. I find her, and the syndrome, very interesting and I admire her for doing all these shows and sharing her life with viewers.
I have both vocal and motor tics like this. I do not feel ok alone in public. I've had the police called on me despite saying I had TS and I have been punched in the face. I pretty much avoid going out except in places where I feel exceptionally well understood or safe. As I get older less and less places feel like that to me. I find the condition entirely embarrassing no matter how much publicity it is given and I am fed up with people treating me as if I'm mentally ill or worse - treating my children 'special ' because it must be hard living with a 'mentally ill' mum. It makes it harder because unknown to most people both my children have slight tics so the condescending attitude makes it harder for them to accept their own tics.
none of the nones , it is funny and you don't need to feel bad about it. The fist decade it happened I'd go off loudly making myself look like a meth head. I'm a bobble head doll.
She seems like a very awesome person! I really admire Ruth for sharing her story and anyone else who tell their stories and educate people and also show them their just normal people. Thank you for telling us your story Ruth. :-)
It is always interesting how just watching someone with tourettes sets off my ticks a bit. I am lucky to have a version I can hide, but tourettes will definitely ensure that you don't get bored. She have a beautiful voice. :)
You are an inspiration to others afflicted with this disorder. I wish you happiness and joy in your journey through life. I really admire your beauty ,strength , and humor .
I always think it is good when they periodically put on these programs about visible or noticiable conditions. The public gets used to seeing it and know what it is and so in general they don't get as offended or suprised when they come across such a person in their lives. That in turn helps the person with the condition feel able to go outside and take part in any activities they want and even just to be ordinary.
I love Ruth. shes such an amazing person to deal with this plus shes funny. Thundercats so funny and cute. She has educated alot of people worldwide about Tourettes. Shes like the hero of her own life.
I'm American and I feel bad for laughing but it's not that she's swearing it's that she's swearing with British swear words .. And idk that's just super funny to me
You are a very courageous brave woman it must be really hard to deal with your condition. You are a lovely funny person never change who you are. People should look up to you I do. I don't have tourettes but have bad ticks sometimes and I know how it feels not to control them. I do actually concentrate really badly to stop them. Good on ya girl
You are amazing ruth let no one bring you down in life there are some negative people who don't understand about disabilitys and conditions to do with the brain. Some people really need to learn how to be more understanding in life
*Idk why people are rude... like they think they can't get a condition later in life that causes them to lose muscle or brain control* Medications alone can make people tremble like an addict, walk like a drunk or say and do things they don't remember
Hi ruth! I have to admit i like this video and seeing how you cope with everything but i really was looking forward to hear you sing and play the piano so thank you on that 😊 and it will be nice to see more of you singing and playing it as well. Keep it up honey and btw you are very beautiful love ya joanna
I've noticed that people affected by tourette's syndrome stop twitching when they're focused/concentrated on something...i think that they have an overactive brain..and also that thing that stops your from doing/saying things you don't want to is missing. i bet it happens to all of us to swear in our minds somethimes but there is something that disconnects/stops the impulses from being transformed into words/actions, like somekind of a nervous clutch.
First half true kinda. When we concentrait most of us tic a lot less. (For many people its music that helps them a lot.) With the last part I don't really agree. Cause that kinda implys that we are thinking what we gonna tic befor we tic it. Wich we don't.
I have ritualistic ocd where I have intrusive thoughts very similar to this but I don’t have ticks but I will say my brain is full of intrusive thoughts and it’s like you give it more power by focusing on them rather than letting them flow
Telling a squirrel that your mother is a fkn squirrel cracked me up. It was really funny . I shouldn't laugh but dam that cracked me up. I know I shouldn't laugh but that really was comedy genius.
i was trying to watch this for the seriousness of it but i keep thinking about how jealous i am that she is so freaking pretty. I also like the hipster glasses.
I love Ruth she so sweet
Ruth: says her pin number
BBC: broadcasts it nationally
Me:?????????????
You'd be forgiven for being a bit tic'd off ;)
Oh good God
Lol she probably changed it
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
It’s probably not her actual pin numbet
She seems like such a sweet person. God what a horrible and ironic disease.
5:27
"Jesus w/ a N*****, honestly"
Awkward!
My old neighbour has Tourettes and he'd always scream pineapple and fuck off.
+AllofUs Earthlings hahahahaha it wouldn't let me type anymore but that's what I was saying
I know right? But I feel like God made them that way. Almost every person I've seen with tourettes seems like a very unique and kind person.
At least she is aware of all the STDs.
And cat aids lol
she didnt say humanity jk
Especially cat aids, gotta raise awareness for that one.
I feel so bad for her :( People who see her seem really rude and not understanding at all.
That guy was a knob she had to explain herself and he didn't give a toss
She's a beautiful and awesome woman. I have no idea why no one wants to date her, so what if she's got tourettes.
Mc Rainbowoeslak she's so beautiful and has a great personality wish I lived close to her I would date her
Mc Rainbowoeslak I think it might be because she might start shouting TINY DICK or 2 SECOND TIM in front of mates, But she'd be worth it
A few 'Tic' comments about her boyfriend. Will run off Alot of people. And you know her brain will make them more offensive as time goes by....
@@pakosinbad830 Shit man ... sorry but I had to laugh hahahahahahahaha .....
Sorry if I'm not attracted to women.😂Hope she finds a date someday tho
2:08 i know i shouldnt laugh, but i swear i cant help it.
+PICKLEP00 me too i feel kinda bad but its funny
Me too. But I can't help it.
I started laughing when I heard "JIHAD" "JIHAD" around the brown dude 5:02
Danny G and he turned around 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
SooperDuke h
I have Tourette's and it's worse some days than others... sometimes you have to laugh at what comes out.... or you'll cry!
"nuuuutttss" "i think theres some nuts over there" lmao
Lmao
Damn she's beautiful may god bless her
it's okay to laugh as long as you don't feel you're being cruel. I couldn't help laughing either like when she called the people waiting for the bus "bus wankers".
Elijah Hardman Well God made her guess he was lazy with this one
Such a lovely personality shame she aint my mate really I bet shes a right lauhg she seems it.

'Buss wankers' someone's been watching inbertweeners
Can't help but be concerned for her safety 😳 One day someone will probably take offence to something she says and attack her, & there's nothing she can do about it 😢
I am too. A lot of people are mean and not very understanding about disabilities... :/
Yeah it can happen and I'm worried too. For example one day with my boyfriend we were at a shop and my boyfriend spoke to the cashier with his hand in front of his mouth (he likes touching his beard a lot). He was angry because she didn't understand him properly. I knew what was going on so I took over. When we got out, I told him the cashier was hearing impaired.

I suffer with a similar level of vocal tics and have been punched in the face. She's not safe and should probably apply to have a carer accompany her
Lorraine K-L I’m so sorry that happened to you! That’s horrible!! 😠
Yes I always think that too a lot of ignorant people out there there is enough info about tourettes
she's so beautiful
I fell so mean for laughing but i cant help it
Don’t feel bad I’m laughing as well 😂😂😂
"There's not enough time to turn back and say, you know, HALLOOW!"
Hahahaha xD
2:09 "WANkers"
2:11 *Guy processes what she just said*
3:23 "Hairy Mary is a fairy" haha I'm laughing so hard
David Dowlatsingh p
People probably think she's on drugs
Cube For A Noob ! maybe you would.
I'm 27 and I have tourettes and yes. people have asked me if I was on drugs. it's frustrating.
@@kjones0321 Saaameeee. I get asked that a lot
Noel Linné suuuuuucks
That's what I would have thought. So glad to be learning about this. My heart goes out to people living with tourettes. They need caring people in their lives. Definitely will think different towards others
lost it at "bus wankaaaas"
I watched this programme and she said Jesus si a black man and yes bus wankers is hilarious 😂😂
Little Indila Why don’t you say what she really said???
Bus wankas. 😑🤔😆
She did it before Jay did it 🤣
@@tpbfangirl this was after inbetweeners
I bet she would be an awesome rapper, she's already got the vocabulary for it and she is also constantly freestyling!:D
😂😂😅
5:28 I CHOKED OML imagine hearin that while you shopping! She is brave lady.
Thank you so much :) My 6 year old son has been diagnosed with tics and now ,this year, it seems Tourettes. It has been so hard for both of us.

She's so beautiful and has a great personality better then most people here wish she lived near me I would take of her
Why is Tourette's so interesting....
aaronmeeks It's a very complex condition.
Because we're cool
Shes absolutely beautiful, 😊✨
Rebecca Hancock You're fucking beautiful.
I know

"Pedo in a speedo"
Best line EVER!!!!
"KICK him in the nuts send him into space!!!"
Second best line EVER!!!
Then " Bus Wankers " 😂😂😂
Jimmy Saville gone swimming
Such a brave video to show so many kinds of tics one can have on a daily basis! She seems to have a pretty positive attitude about it as well which is uplifting!
That fricken guy in the store was a jerk
Whitewave gsd Well, he didn't know.
Whitewave gsd I thought it said that fried chicken guy
He so was what an asshole but he soon felt like a prick when he realised it was a T.V docu.
Even after she explained her condition and he stated he was aware what Tourette's was. No compassion or understanding; as if she was purposely be being rude and offensive. I imagine it must be exhausting having that condition.
Miller Miz do you think he knew? I doubt it . He was just trying to be a jerk. What a wanker
I feel so bad but THUNDERCATS
The level of self confidence you have is unfathomable. And it’s inspiring. I’m sorry I found your tic comments funny but with that being said, I think you’re an amazing person.
2:10 I love her calling people wankers when she enters/exits the trains... hahahaha
LMAOOO me too lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍🤟🤟🤙
Hairy mary is a fairy oh god hahahaba
''NUUUUUUUUTS'' !!!!!!! X'D

What did he even say
You mean the condescending attitude?
@@LorraineIwakashdan yes and 0 empathy

My biggest problem with my tourettes syndrome is that at 57 years old shit people strung out on meth or crack think I'm one of them!
none of the nones , it is funny and you don't need to feel bad about it. The fist decade it happened I'd go off loudly making myself look like a meth head. I'm a bobble head doll.
Such a gorgeous and inspiring girl! I feel for her so much
She seems like a very awesome person! I really admire Ruth for sharing her story and anyone else who tell their stories and educate people and also show them their just normal people. Thank you for telling us your story Ruth. :-)
She has a wonderful laugh and eyes.
Also... some dammed gold comedy one lines.

"Dodgey trolley time" 😂
That one killed me 😂
She invented rappin for Jesus at 5:33
Died at hairy Mary is a fairy 😂😂😂🤣🤣
i find it so funny when shes saying out loud "WANKERS"
You are an inspiration to others afflicted with this disorder. I wish you happiness and joy in your journey through life. I really admire your beauty ,strength , and humor .
Ruth is beautiful
Yeeess she is🙏
I definitely know a lot more British swears now lol.
I love her as a person. She’s going through this shit but is so level headed about it.

Blurts out pin number: Let's put it on TV :D

lol I am British what swear words do you mean like?
"Wankers"??😂😂😂😂
You are a very courageous brave woman it must be really hard to deal with your condition.
You are a lovely funny person never change who you are.
People should look up to you I do.
I don't have tourettes but have bad ticks sometimes and I know how it feels not to control them.
I do actually concentrate really badly to stop them.
Good on ya girl
You are amazing ruth let no one bring you down in life there are some negative people who don't understand about disabilitys and conditions to do with the brain. Some people really need to learn how to be more understanding in life
BISCUIT
What if she flicks someone off? And they try to fight her lol ohh no :/

I absolutely love how you just say what comes to your mind...I think we all need more of that...you are amazing!!!
*Idk why people are rude... like they think they can't get a condition later in life that causes them to lose muscle or brain control*
Medications alone can make people tremble like an addict, walk like a drunk or say and do things they don't remember
And sometimes she says things she REALLY don’t want you to know
*puts it on national television for everyone to hear*
3:48 really reminds me of voice commands spam in Left4Dead2 😹

Telling a squirrel that your mother is a fkn squirrel cracked me up. It was really funny . I shouldn't laugh but dam that cracked me up. I know I shouldn't laugh but that really was comedy genius.
I wonder how she got her nose pierced. I struggled staying still long enough lol
Ruth is a riot.i could totally see myself hanging out with her
i was trying to watch this for the seriousness of it but i keep thinking about how jealous i am that she is so freaking pretty. I also like the hipster glasses.
It's so sad ! But she is soo pretty and I love her style :O !
