Season 8 is here! With two episodes!
Season 8! Back with new dynamics! Pretty amazing. But where has the podcast been since last season? That’s explained on Episode 0 of this season, which also gives updated thoughts on some of the most popular listener questions.
Following our usual Episode 0, we're here with Episode 1, in which Ben steps back and Britney and Aiya take the reins. Britney (author Britney Wolf, that is) leads the conversation with Aiya, who was diagnosed last year at age 16. She knows she's always experienced Tourette, but her tics really picked up (she calls it a "tic boom") as the years progressed. This episode is great, especially for people Aiya's age, going through school and dealing with judgments. Discussion also covers co-occuring conditions like OCD and anxiety.
