Hi, I was wondering if anyone relates.. Im a 20 year old Muslim female with TOURETTES syndrome, and I’m having a hard time praying. I also have a bunch of other disorders that come along with TOURETTES like adhd, anxiety and ocd to name a few. My tics have been getting bad lately and it causes me to get stuck on some words during prayer especially.I have my regular tics that get worse during prayer but also some ocd tics where Im saying the Quran in the prayer and I have an urge to say a word over and over again in a certain way until it feels right. I also have sensory processing disorder which also gets worse when praying when I cross my arms to start prayer for example that texture of my arms touching makes me feel overwhelmed and makes me tic more, yes the texture of my own skin makes me annoyed, kind of confusing to explain if you don’t have sensory issues. While doing all that my mind feels like it’s going a million miles an hour and I often get dizzy and really sweaty, as if I had just ran a full marathon. I’ve tried to sit down while praying but it’s still not helping and idk what I’m supposed to do. It’s so exhausting.. I feel like a horrible person because I’m not meeting the minimum requirements to be a Muslim, which is just as simple as praying 5 times a day. I’m still in the process of finding the right medication to help the tics, but nothing has worked so far and there is no cure for this. I hope someone here can relate... and maybe someone can help me figure out what to do because I really feel horrible. Hope someone that relates can respond to this.. thanks!
