I don't know what to do anymore. My tics are at an all time high and medications only last usually for 3 months before losing their positive effect and become another pill to take to keep myself functional but not stable.
Pretty much every job I've had went to shit because of my TS. Worked at Disney, they openly let me go because of my disability. Worked at build a bear, then got an opportunity for Knotts Scary Farm. Worked at Knotts Scary Farm for not even the full season because I started taking new meds and had to quit before October even hit. Now im at McDonald's and a 4 hour shift is almost too much.
Im tired and angry and sad all the time because of this fuck ass disability. Im constantly in pain and having insomnia from tics raging at night when trying to go to sleep.
I'm only 21 years old and it feels like my body is killing itself with all the drugs, punching, screaming,
and pain. I don't feel like I'll ever be successful and have a real career. College isn't working. My life isn't progressing forwards.
Life is brutal and doesn't just give grace to people who struggle. Life doesn't have breaks or slow down. It just keeps going at a pace way too fast and I'm not getting anything out of life. All my past friendships have been cruel, and I wonder when my current friends will turn on me. All my relationships have been abusive, and I don't think ill actually find real love.
I don't feel like im living, im surviving. This fucking sucks.
If anyone has tips for dealing with tourettes while working that would be great. I don't want to quit my job i literally just got past training.
I have DBS hopefully coming up but I honestly am not counting on it to improve. What do I do?
