"IT’S impossible to control my tics", says Bianca Saez, who has one of the worst cases of Tourette’s in Australia. At the age of just five Bianca started showing signs of having Tourette's Syndrome and by the age of 12 it had become so severe that it affected her everyday life. Her tics include slapping, yelling, swearing and hitting which often get her unwanted attention from strangers when she’s out in public. Some cruel online commenters have even said that her tics are fake and she’s doing it all for attention. As some of her tics involve bad language Bianca sometimes feels guilty - she told Truly: “It's just the way my tics come out and I don’t mean any of it.” Although her tics cause her some day to day struggles Bianca has created a YouTube channel called B With Tourettes that documents what life is like for her with this extreme condition. Truly caught up with Bianca at home where she described all the different tics that she has and how they affect her.
