Winter Worsens My Tics: Any Tips?

I haven't noticed if mine get worse from particular seasons, but I know that they are actually better when I am physically cold. I think it's because my body slows down significantly. I highly recommend doing some sort of exercise every day. Anything that you enjoy and in whatever difficulty you can handle. I always hated the popularized forms of exercise (running, lifting weights, sports), but I love yoga. I do at least 3 minutes of yoga every morning targeted towards my motor tic muscles and it helps tremendously. It helps more when I do 10 minutes, but even just 3 helps. And I started from a place of very low flexibility, so don't write it off for that reason. It also helps me to practice good sleep hygiene. Not looking at any screens for an hour before bed and going to bed at a good time helps me sleep better, which makes my tics less frequent and violent. Therapy made my tics the best they had ever been. It was very calming to talk to someone about my problems who was actually knowledgeable about those problems and could help me through them. If it's possible for you, I recommend it. I saw that you have OCD on your health profile, so I also recommend seeing an OCD specialist if possible. You could also see if there are any Tourette Syndrome specialists in your area. I almost went to one, but the therapy center wanted to try me on an OCD specialist first because the TS one was a child therapist. Given the severity of my tics, though, they said the TS specialist was still an option. Also, try to keep doing things. Don't just scroll TikTok all day. Do hobbies. I do art and play video games. I learn. Keeping me mind and hands active helps me a lot. In fact, art therapy helps, too. I sometimes make abstract art purely based on my emotions with no judgement. If you have a tic attack, try to focus on something outside your body. Take deep breaths. Find five things you can see, five you can hear, five you can touch.
