When Tourette syndrome meets OCD
Update: 2025-11-02
Description
Did you know that Tourette Syndrome (TS) and OCD frequently co-occur? Penny and Angie talk to Jason McCurry who has TS and OCD. Jason talks so generously about:
- Experiencing both TS and OCD symptoms as a kid in a country town
- How OCD and TS interrelate
- What actually happens physically when he starts ticking
- How physically arduous constant ticking can be for someone with TS
- His trepidation about coming onto the podcast, particularly with his TS flaring up a bit recently
- How he would like people to react if his TS symptoms flare up in public
- How and why he now helps young people experiencing disability
