Another newbie

[GaryQ]

Hello everyone,
I followed David and Steve here from the Tourette Canada forum. I have "Mild" TS with "big time" PLUS
I'm a little overwhelmed at the moment by the amount of topics on this forum amongst other things going on in life. It might take me a while to get acclimated here.
I'm usually quite vocal but simply feel the need to just say Hi for now.

Regards,
Gary

Welcome, Gary!

You're right, there's an awful lot here. Take your time!

People often post in General Support and Advice or Just Chat if they are not sure. Also we are happy to move a thread to a better section if needed or whatever, so it's no worries.

Hope you find some useful stuff as you explore. We'll see you 'round!

Big thanks to everyone for the warm welcome.

David: thanks for the links. That will definitely help over time.

Steve: I'm glad you appreciated my occasional insight and especially for putting up with my clowning around.

Along with the warm welcome it feels good knowing I have at least two "old friends" here, or is it "old" friends :rofl:

"old friends" here, or is it "old" friends

That's right, Gary...old, old friends...

In all seriousness it is less intimidating knowing I have friends here. Actually it's a big part of what made me join

 

[David Baxter PhD]

two "old friends" here, or is it "old" friends

A bit of both

We are also looking at ways to reorganize the information here to make it less daunting. Doesn't hurt to do a little spring cleaning after 15 years, I guess.
