I've met a couple of people with tourettes, but none of them swore, just siezed up or did a loud scream. How usual is it for people with tourettes to swear instead of the non-verbal kind?
Apparently a lot of people with tourettes can hold it in, to some extent. It's like holding in a sneeze, however. The longer you hold it, the worse the itch becomes. Eventually it's coming out, and generally worse the longer it was constrained for.
Yeah it's like not blinking. Some tics are easier to suppress though.
