    "This is Lyla Green. She is 16 years old, tall, and has long brown hair. She is pretty shy but very caring and creative."
        This is how a person would describe me normally. The usual. General facts, appearance, and personality traits.
        "This is Lyla Green. She is...weird. She does strange stuff with her voice and body, it's like she's crazy."
        This is how a person would have described me when I was 14 years old. When I discovered I had Tourette and had tics. This is what they saw at first glance, and they never bothered to look closer. If they had looked closer, if they knew me, they would have noticed that I am the same person described above. Just with tics. Do I change that much?
        No. I am just a bit different. A movement there, a sound there. Something out of the ordinary. Something you don't see everyday. Something new.
        That's what scares people.
        
        
        
        Based on real events.
