Hello, Names Iain. Im a bloke...go me! Altho i tie my hair back this is becasue my afro is to big that if the wind blows, i can literly drown in my own hair if i open my mouth slightly!lol...In my pics you can see its ength from about 16months ago. I like to call it: THE WHITE MANS COMEDY AFRO!!!!OW YEAH BABY!!!!######## 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;#########Big fan of big brothers Pete Bennett!######## 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### 5;######### Why?#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;######### Well becuase i was having majour anxiety problems before he went into the house and after viewing him in the BB house i noticed i had alot of similaritys inrefference to Tourettes but not always as exteme as his. ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########I went to my GP. Got a diagnosis with General Anxiety Disorded (GAD) and got a referral to a Clinical Psychologist who diagnosed Aspergers Syndrome. The uni then tested me and gave me a diagnosis in mild Dyslexia. I am currently under going an investigation into my susspition that i have Tourettes (TS), ADHD with my Psychiatrist/Nurologist. My Nurologist is convinced of a tic disorder that is in keeping with Touretts syndrome. I have also just been given a diagnosis in OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) and Depression. Im seeking an expert Psychiatrist in Tourettes syndrome as my current psychiatrist (not an expert in Tourettes), despite the nerologists invistigation, seems hesitant to diagnose it. My nerologist says he thinks this is cuz the guy is not prepared put his neck on the line and diagnose it (which is common. Ball-less git) due to not being clued up and wont even admit it incase he looks bad. For this reason, i am seeking an expert. This sort or thing is not uncommon. ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## # It is also not uncommon to have afew investigations that are not as thurugh as they should be and so dont produse a diagnosis quickly if at all but hopfully i will soon and get the help and support i very much need to get through uni. Universitys can be quite rubbish and very unwilling to help people with Nurological or mental health problems as the view them as not as incriminating as a physical disability. Witch is unfair and wrong. You can not determin which is worse as they can all be very hard to live a normal fully functioning life with. ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ########## ### Thanks Pete for all you done! With out you being brave and going into the big brother house i dred to think where i would be now with out knowing why things were getting so messed up for me.#########� 35;#########� 35;#########� 35;#########� 35;#########� 35;#########� 35;#########� 35;#########� 35;#########� 35;###### Im forever indebted to you.#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;PS.... I am a Film Production Student, who since discovering/getting my diagnosises, has desided to devote/encorporate my Uni work and career path into the awairness of the syndrome mix so that people who desparatly need help can get it. Also i want to educated a very unsympathetic public about conditions such as mine as they can be a majour part of people not being able to cope with such problems. Its almost as if people look down on you for somthing that is not ur fault and that some people...like me...are born with. If thats by making ..arys, films, dramas or even just helping the local comunity...i see it is my responsability to help others that like me...need help and support from understanding people. Pete has given me a real drive in life. His time in the bb house rasing awairness of Tourettes is having a nock on effect on me and i hope to carry on his quest. He has done his part. Now its my turn to take some of the burden of him.#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;#########&# 035;# Take care all and do your bit to help anyone who needs it. There is no harm in being sympathetic and helping so i hope people try to do more themselves and are inspired by m own efforts to help.
