And some people say " I wish I had Tourette's". Absolutely ignorant!

Your ability to pass of at the end with a joke when you are going through such sustained stress and self inflicted harm shown how strong you are as a person, for other people with tourette's you are nothing short of a inspiration letting people see so candidly into such a difficult time in your life. Stay strong Jade, you are a a hero.

40 minutes of being unable to control yourself, while also injuring yourself, being able to breathe, possibly crying. I just can’t.

I felt like I was watching someone die. The frustration and pain and anxiety was palpable. This is horrifying and I'm so sad you have to go through this, but it really opened my eyes to the reality of Tourette's. Big hugs.

constantly proud of you jade ♥️ can’t wait till the day we can hug ♥️ your hair looks gorgeous btw

This already looks/sounds horrible, can't imagine what it would be like to have to go through it

i really dont like it when she stops breathing and hits her head, im sad for her...

I've been in the medical field since 2005 and this was one of the HARDEST things to see. I wish I could just push the like button and it would make this all go away. I've watched so many of your videos so I know you smile and laugh too. This broke my heart in a million pieces. Sending love from the U.S.

The fact that this was a 40 min experience and we only see 11 minutes of it is so heart breaking...

Scariest part of this whole thing is when you're hitting yourself and unable to even control your own breathing. Does this happen every time an attack pops up? Hope you're doing alright!

Oh my god. The way she kept hitting her chest & getting all embarrassed, shortly before she first said, "I think I might be having a tic attack"... that's when I could just 100% tell this video was absolutely real. I have SEVERE respiratory issues, & that exact moment reminded me so much of when I'm in a social setting & can tell I'm starting to have a severe asthma attack -- it's EXTREMELY embarrassing for me, & I always try to play it off like I'm fine until I'm literally gasping for air, at which point I typically do something similar (rap on my chest while trying to smile & choking out the words, "YEAH I THINK I'M HAVING AN ASTHMA ATTACK" shortly before I either claw my inhaler out of my bag, or just stop breathing). I know that exact feeling -- when you've already started panicking internally because you know what's happening to you & can see where this is heading, but to save face in public you try to play it off like you're fine right up until you literally just can't anymore. That's how you can tell who is faking this shit just for "clout" on social media -- kids who are faking Tourette's, for example, tend to tic in either an intentionally "cute" way, or an extremely exaggerated, overly dramatic/theatrical way, like they're just performing for a camera (which, of course, they are). People who ACTUALLY suffer from it tend to be embarrassed of their symptoms, especially when their symptoms are unintentionally loud or disruptive. Imagine being out in public, & you can start to feel yourself gradually losing all control of your body. You struggle to maintain control because you're already shy & don't want to attract attention. You can feel everyone staring at you. People are visibly disturbed. It's a mortifying feeling. Having an actual attack of any sort in public (be it an asthma attack, a tic attack, a panic attack, etc.) is not "cute" or "quirky" -- there's a reason it's called an ATTACK. It's not fun. You genuinely feel like your body is under attack & suddenly completely out of your control, & it's terrifying.

I have never seen a "tic attack" and it was utterly horrifying to watch you go through it. I subscribed because your struggle gave me so much perspective about my own challenges that I face. I started this video not knowing you, but being immediately charmed by ypur personality and warmth. It seems unfair to be dealt a life where you have to face this. I am grateful that you shared such a vulnerable and painful experience to advocate and educate what life with this can truly be like. I am humbled by you...

I think the fact that its hard to watch makes it just as important to share. Its fun seeing the fun videos but this looks like the harsh reality of having this condition its important to be educated on it all. Thanks for sharing it must have been so hard to show this. Hope your well.

this literally made me sob. i wish people understood that tourette’s isn’t just “funny tics”. i can’t stop crying for you. you’re so strong

I had no idea tic attacks excisted. But watching this made me realise how bad tourrete can be. I'm glad you shared this and i know it will educate a lot of people who didn't know this either. I'm sorry you have to go through this. I love your video's, keep up the good work! :)

Jade, watching you for 11 minutes was torture. I can't imagine 40 minutes. You are so strong, you struggle and you continue, and I am so proud of you for still trying. For still going, for still working and posting content to bring awareness into the hearts and minds of others without tourettes. You are loved and are important do not give up on spreading love and acceptance.

I feel bad. She looks like she wants to cry Everytime she hits herself. She looks like she is in do much pain and I bet she is. I never realized how bad having tourettes can be. Also she looks so scared to when she can't breathe and with how hard she got herself she looked so scared.

Pov: ur scrolling through the comments bc u don't want to watch jade suffer 😥😔

This is heartbreaking.. I can’t even imagine what she’s been through. You’re such a strong person. Thank you so much for sharing. 💙

I'm so sorry this is happening to you. Thank you for uploading this though. I don't feel alone anymore. After having everyone say I'm a fake and having only my mother comfort me and believe me... You're a blessing. This is hard to watch and, having gone through something similar many times, hard to get through. You're a real trooper. Stay strong.

I was so scared when she couldn't breathe

Thank you for this grim insight into what a 'Bad' day with tourettes looks like especially the physically harmful tics. Thank you for being brave to show this.

When she couldn't breathe I almost started crying. I'm so glad that's not one of my tics and I constantly want to hug everyone with that tic. I love you Jade. You're such an inspiration and I'm so sorry you have to go through this shit.

This was heartbreaking to watch. Watching you hitting yourself and struggling to breathe had me in tears. You are brave to share this, Jade! We love the baking videos, but this is a whole other story. Thank you for educating us about the reality of Tourette's and sharing the hard stuff too. Lots of love! ❤

Argh .. this was hard to watch, breaks my heart to see someone in this situation. But to handle it they way you do shows such immense strength. Praying for you.

Jade I had to pause this. This is so incredibly hard to watch someone go through but it definitely needs to be seen. Thank you for showing that Tourette’s is not all fun and swearing

my god, i'm sorry for you- your face turned red when you hit it, i imagine how much it must have hurt- But you are strong, I am proud of you✨ edit: I was really scared when she couldn't breathe

My heart goes out to you, Jade. I honestly do not appreciate when people just say "Tourettes is fake, ppl do it for attention" or when ppl fake the illness. It is not just funny swear words or quirky behaviours. It can have severe symptoms, such as shown in the vid. My heart goes out to you, and im sorry you have to deal with this exhausting condition.

I don't have tics myself .. I'm so sorry for the the people who have to deal with this . STAY STRONG Jade

This just looks absolutely so exhausting and scary. I can’t believe you’re still so positive through it.

This looks so exhausting 😞 I have so much respect for you Jade. I can laugh my ass off when I look at your baking video's, but this is the real deal. This is the other side of the syndrome. How much do you have these tic attacks? I hope not often 🙏🏼 thank you for sharing this with us, it is an eye opener for me. Take care ❤️

Thank you so much for being vulnerable and sharing this video. So many aspects of this attack are nearly identical to my daughter's attacks. We can relate to the difficulty and struggle. You're a warrior and an inspiration to everyone with TS and Tic Disorders

You’re so brave babe. You are getting the word out there. Well done you should be so proud of yourself

Tic attacks looks very emotionally and physically draining...

When you started holding your breath I genuinely was concerned...I'm so sorry that you have to deal with this

I just want to say a huge thank you so much for posting videos like this and putting awareness out there. My daughter has tic attacks that look exactly like this multiple times a day and people like you are helping her know that she is not alone. You are amazing! Thank you

This is scary... im sorry you go through this but you're very strong to do it and to share it with us.

I’m sorry you have to go through this it’s not fair. You are so strong to not let yourself down about this. Thank you for posting this and not being too shamed to. You are so strong! I love you! 😘❤️💕

I have these type of tic attacks and when I do my boyfriend just tries and hugs me. Sometimes I hit his face and he doesn't get mad at me cause he knows I can't help it. You're so strong. You have family that makes you feel strong keep it up. I only have my boyfriend 😔

It was hard pushing the like button because it seemed like such an opposite of how I felt watching you go through this! I enjoy laughing with you and your family in your other videos and this one shows how it isn't always laughs and giggles! I truly admire you! You are an AMAZING person! You have such a wonderful personality and it's awesome that you do these videos and are bringing much needed awareness of tourette's. Much love to you!

When she slowly started getting more serious and her face got more sadder, i cried so much because she goes through so much and it hurts me knowing she’s in pain and wishing i could help her but i can’t. But she’s such a trooper and whenever a little minor inconvenience happens in my life, i always think about Jade and what she’s goes through on a daily bases and makes me appreciate life more. She’s such an inspiration to me and to many others i know it 🥺💛

after 3 minutes I was sobbing, I made myself watch the whole thing through, because if you have to go through it for 40 minutes like that, I can watch for ten minutes.

You’re so strong! I felt so bad when you couldn’t breath. Praying these Tic Attacks are kinder to you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Sweetie it breaks my heart to see you suffering so much, I can only imagine how frustrating it must be, but I admire you from the bottom of my heart for being brave enough to post it for us, and for keeping that beautiful smile you have in every video despite whats behind it. Thank you very much, you are so inspiring. Best support from Spain!

This should be a video that everyone has to watch when first learning about Tourette’s and or Tics. Too many people have only seen lighthearted, funny, kid yelling swear, etc videos. We need to educate people, especially the younger population, on what Tourette’s actually is and symptoms - the not so ‘funny’ tics, self harm tics and very possibly dangerous tics. I love all your videos Jade, but I’m especially glad you are able to make this video to hopefully educate a lot of people. I am so sorry you have to suffer every single day 😓💗

This was hard to watch, I didn't realize how bad tic attacks were, it was especially hard to watch when you couldn't breathe, and when I could hear how hard you were hitting yourself, your so strong! Stay positive!

"This tic attack lasted roughly 40 minutes" and I cried my heart out after watching her for just 11 minutes

God I was so scared when she couldnt breathe

Im so sorry that you have to go through this often, I cant imagine how tiring this is.. This was super hard for me to watch.. than so much for sharing what it is like in the real world of tourettes, you will always be my inspiration and my Idol. You are so strong I love you so much ❤️✨

On this video, we can clearly see how tiring and painful it can be, physically and mentally, you can almost feel it. Like if you were prisoner of your own body while having tics. Shout out to all the people with Tourettes, so strong and brave!

The fact that people can go through this on a regular basis and still power on and be so astoundingly positive is so incredibly inspiring. 💚

Oh my... I'm just seeing this, but god this was intense to watch... You can see the panic on your face at one point because you couldn't breath... And the pain when you kept hitting yourself... I'm so sorry you're going through this. I hope you're okay. Thank you for uploading this to make us aware of what you're going through. It was heavy to watch, I'm speechless..

Im so proud of u how far u have come we all love u jade

For the people you say "I wish I had tics, they look so much fun", what is the matter with you. Tic are not something you can control, you can't just say "stop" and they'll be gone just like that. People are diagnosed or not with Tourette syndrome. To the people who self diagnose themselves with any sickness, syndrome, or mental issue, this is the real pain people go through.

I'm so sorry, that looks incredibly painful and must really suck. thanks for sharing, it really helps raise awareness about the tic attacks.. I had no idea these existed. stay strong

Jade you are a strong person for sharing this experience with the world. It helps to share a message of what people have to suffer through. While most of your content shows the funny side of this terrible ordeal its humbling to see you aren't afraid to share the serious side of this as well. We support you and those who suffer with you.

I can’t even begin to imagine what it is like to experience this. I can feel the physical pain through the video never mind actually feeling it. The fact that you are openly sharing this with the world and raising awareness of Tourette’s is amazing. You are an inspiration and even when you’re going through this you can still stay so positive and even crack a joke at the end. I do really enjoy watching your videos 💗

I've never met anyone with tourettes before, so your videos are a huge source of education for me. The fact that you deal with attacks like this yet are still able to find a way to smile and spread information about tourettes in a positive entertaining way is such a huge testament to your character, and you sharing this moment with us shows how incredibly strong you are. All of this was so painful to watch, but the thing that hit the hardest was the long period of time you were unable to breathe. Asphyxiation is a huge fear of mine. When you said in your last video that sometimes your tics make it so you can't breathe, I definitely didn't picture something this severe. And now to know this is something that happens to you and so many other people... wow. Thank you so much for this video. Thank you for all of your videos. Thank you for your smiles, your laughs, and for everything.

This was definitely hard to watch. I don't know how you do it every day, Jade. What a trooper and inspiration to be able to go through all that and still have your fun mindset. I can see how hard you are struggling. Keep staying strong! You are stronger than anyone knows! 💕

When she couldn't breathe i got so scared and desesperate, i was like "let her breathe, please let her breathe". And hearing her crying was so heartbroken. 💔

I feel so bad! 🥺 I can’t imagine what’s it like just doing something and not being able to control it that’d terrify me

Watching this, made me cry to be honest. 😢Everytime she hit herself, it got to me. Your so strong and cool Jade. Stay safe and be careful. Please. 😊 Im sorry this happened to you.

I'm so sorry hun it's really hard seeing you having an attack like this I just want to hug you and try to help you to stop. I cant imagine what your going through. Your so brave and amazing. You have such a great sense of humor and make the best of it.

Hey gurl im really sorry your going through this, but im really happy your staying strong and happy whenever the tics are happening. As a person who suffers from epilepsy and is having seizures constantly i know how hard it is to deal with really bad health problems. but in the end all that matter is we have our family that helps us go through everything and the help from everyone around us

As a mother, this breaks my heart. My coworker's daughter has Tourette's, she is able to keep hers mostly under control with medication. It is hard to watch you working through those uncontrollable actions and words, but thank you for sharing your experience. Sometimes, Tourette's can seem kind of funny, or just frustrating, but hopefully your share of this video will remind people of the real challenge you face. I hope you were okay following this tic attack.

This actually breaks my heart watching this. Everyone talks about having a tic attack but I never thought it would be as bad as this. I really hope your tics calm down overtime. Especially the physical ones. This is something no one should endure. Much love from me ❤️

I've only watched your baking videos so the more light-hearted ones, some of them had me in tears laughing at the things you said, and I loved how genuine and supportive your family are of you in them. But this one has really made me realise Tourette's isn't just saying rude words and throwing things. It's really hard not to well up watching this and I feel bad for the times I've laughed along with you and your family Jade 😢

I’ve been struggling with tics. They’ve been getting much worse and I’ve been getting scared. Seeing that I’m not alone in this is really comforting. Thx for showing this ik it’s hard :(

Watching you not being able to breathe scared me so much. I'm starting to show signs of tics and I hope I don't do that, you have to be so brave to do that... I was about to cry watching it... seeing how hard you were breathing after shocked me. I hope you're alright now. Love out to you

My 9 year old son has Tourette’s. He only has motor and sometimes repeats himself twice like words like “let’s go to the park mom. Mom.” Grunting and he sometimes hits his head it has gotten better over the years with medication. And CBD. And I came across your cooking video. And I watched it and it was so funny and thinking wow such a positive video and highlighting that sometimes you just gotta laugh it off. And then this one popped up. And I’m now in tears sobbing like a baby wanting to give you the biggest hug. And looking at my son like wow. So much respect. And my heart breaks that was very scary. But needed to be shared. It’s not a joke at the end of the day. It is a illness and a serious one. Mental illnesses need to be taken more seriously because it hasn’t been. People think is all fun and games when it’s not. Or people are just faking to be “special”. Nothing special about it. My son stabbed a little boy with a pencil in the 1st grade and didn’t remember doing it and teachers made him out to be “crazy”. That he needed to be separated and treated differently because of his illness. Sorry I’m all in my feelings at the moment. Just want to say. Thank you for sharing. It needed to be shared.

Sending you lots of love. It hurt me to watch this, it’s not fair that some people have to go through this and get these awful tic attacks regularly.

we are very grateful of you. thank you for sharing. we need and should understand. this needs to understand. thank you for teaching me. i have a lot of respect and gratefulness for you. please know that we all should understand that there are bad days or weeks ect.... i have MS and i get breathing and heart spasm's for hours and all i can do is weep and try to breath ... this hurt to watch ... you are so strong and incredible. Please know so many people are watching and at first its a laugh.... but this is real life too. it seems so exhausting in a way many will never know. you are so strong. you have my respective love.

I hope you're fine, this looks really painfull

The part where you kept breathing in and couldn’t breath anymore is sooo scaryy..... I hope you’re doing alright🥺💕

Holy crap! Major props to you. You are so brave for putting this up. I hope you bring light to this and show people its not funny or a joke. Serious respect to you.

This was very sad to watch, I so wish I could just come through the screen and give you a big hug!! I also really appreciate you share the bad side along with the positive/happy stuff because not a lot of people do, and not a lot of people could push through this. I just hope you know how strong you are, love you Jade! ❤️

I lost it when she had difficulty breathing. 😭She started crying out of frustration too ): keep strong Jade, you’re an inspiration ❤️

This is heartbreaking. I just want to hold her and hug her. It’s so hard to watch while she hits herself. Jade you are so strong to struggle with Tourette’s everyday! You teaching us everyday.... I send you all my love ! Keep holding on girl! You are an inspiration!

God you are so strong I can’t imagine going through this it was so hard to just watch for 10 mins I never knew it was like this. Your body’s attacking its self and your powerless against it. Thank you for showing us all this very personal and painful side and for teaching us all that it’s not just verbal like most people think

You are such a strong person. Your subscribers are here for you

I feel like this is one of the most important videos I’ll ever see. I had no idea that you could have attacks like that. It was so difficult to watch but I felt like I owed to to anyone with Tourette’s to understand more about it. I was daft enough to only have thought of the funny, sweary, egg throwing tics. I already thought you were a pretty exceptional person with an amazing attitude but I’ve got so much more respect and admiration for you now. Thank you so much for sharing.

Gods the way you flinched when you hit yourself, and the little weeping sound you made hurt my soul. I never truly understood what people with Tourette’s go through and I can’t lie I’ve wished I had this and now I see how truly ignorant I was. I’m so sorry you go through this but keep on fighting. And I expirience tremors which are similar yet also different from tics. I understand some of what you’re going through as with my tremors I jerk my head to the side and I get migraines and general headaches. Also the flinching is so terrible I get bad flinches randomly and watching yours as you hit yourself are terrible.

My heart goes out to you and how impactful you are in sharing your story and the true struggle you face every day. To be so positive and bright in all of your videos when you go through this in your daily life is truly a testament to resilient and strong you are. So much love from Colorado.

It kills me to see you like this. I get tic attacks occasionally and I know how much it sucks. I can tell you were getting fed up with it and you looked like you were on the verge of crying and it just kills me that you have to go through this. Stay strong. You've got this! :)

This one was hard to watch, but I thank you for having the courage to post and raise awareness on what you go through every day of your life. Youre an inspiration Jade! I had a couple really close friends in HS with smaller tics and minor tic attacks compared to this. As a friend of people who go through this, its frustrating to watch sometimes because I can see the clear frustration it brings and I feel in some way I should and can help but don't know what I could do to help. Thank you for doing this Jade. I admire you for having the courage to share this with your fans! It lets those who haven't seen this stuff first hand or have had to live with it, know that its not always funny or entertaining. Keep providing content and ill definitely continue to follow, like, and share with friends! #JadeBrigade

So the video "Baking With Tourettes and My Family!!" pops up on my recommended list. I watch it with my wife and our son. For the first few minutes I'm not sure it is ok for me to laugh but then I think, "Everyone is laughing so why can't I?" We have tears running down our faces, shortness of breath, and sore cheeks as my wife and our son watch your videos until 4am. (We were going to go to bed at 2am.) lol Then I see this one as an option and I expected the worse. It is one thing to film the good ones but the bad ones... Tears ran down my cheeks again and this time because I felt helpless and every strike to yourself hurt us emotionally. I am so happy you shared this video. I think only people with Tourettes can truly know what you're going through and how much of a nightmare it can be in the bad times but I will tell you this, every video we have watched after this and will continue to watch makes us laugh very hard. Thank you for letting us share in your life for both the good and the bad.

I had a tic attack in math for the entire period yesterday and my friend Spencer didn’t know what was happening and he kept telling me to chill😂, but I’m so sorry! That’s horrible, wishing more ticless days ahead of you:D

This was so hard to watch, Jade, But I made myself watch the whole thing. literally have tears in my eyes. I’m so sorry it gets so bad for you, I found myself wanting to run in and grab your hands to stop you from hitting yourself. And when you couldn’t breathe I was shutting myself. This is the reality behind the funny videos. Thank you for spreading this awareness, I’m so proud of you

this is so upsetting to watch knowing that I have tics myself and I have tic attacks once a month, they mostly go hand and hand with my panic attacks, so if I have panic attack then my tic attacks will come along... I hope you are doing okay, those were some pretty hard hits, and the breathing in tic must be very harmful to you, I hope that in the future your tic attacks will go away, but we can only hope.... :)

Scrolling through the comments cause I don’t to watch her hurt herself we are all so proud of u jade your so strong n beautiful

Oh Jade. I just wish I could hug you! It's heartbreaking to watch you struggle through this. It's like watching a fish out of water, and knowing it's completely helpless. I can only imagine how exhausting and painful this is. Sending hugs and love❤❤

I was watching this because I have tics myself. It makes me thankful that my tics aren’t this bad. I do have verbal and physical tics and I’m just wondering why. But bless your heart this must be emotionally devastating for you sometimes. I can’t imagine the bruises you end up with or how heartbroken you feel when you’re in public. My heart goes out to you it really does

It’s bad enough when I’m struggling to breathe with my anxiety attacks and asthma. Watching you struggle to breathe with absolutely no control genuinely scared and triggered me a bit. I’m so so glad you’re okay, I was so worried even though I knew you’d be okay in the end :(

I could hardly bear to watch this for the 11 minutes... and you had to endure this for 40 minutes. Bless you. You are so incredibly strong. We love you Jade ❤

I watched a few of your videos and I had some good laughter with them, but deep inside I knew your life was way more difficult and challenging than I could have imagined. This video shows it in a dramatic and saddening way. You are a HERO and a LEGEND. I know it's useless to wish you to get cured from it, but I still wish you the best. And I want you to know YOU INSPIRE ME. I WISH I WAS AS STRONG AS YOU.

I am so sorry you have to deal with this. I cannot imagine the strength you possess to go through that. When you were struggling to breath my heart broke. Putting both the funny/good and the scary/bad sides so people are seeing what Tourettes is like is fucking inspiring❤ dont ever stop being you Jade!

As a father of 2 girls, I can not tell you enough of how proud I am of you, for doing these videos. We have sat as a family and not only laughed along with you, we have learnt so much from you. You are an inspiration Jade x

I’m so sorry if this question seems insensitive, I’m not trying to be. But have you ever passed out from a tic attack because you weren’t able to breathe properly? I’m so sorry you go through this, you’re so brave

Thank you for showing us this side of tics. I'm so sorry you have to go through this. As I sat here watching and seeing the pain on your face and the struggles you have during an attack to regain control is heart breaking. My question is, have you ever passed out from holding your breath during an attack?

That literally broke my heart cause you can’t control it but you are a very strong person and it seems like you can get through anything
