ESSAY 2 Inpatient vs. Outpatient drug rehab

Sooooooo due to current events I am writing my paper on inpatient vs. outpatient drug rehab. Not staying one is better than the other. According to what I have read for my papers inpatient has a higher rate of sucsess because it iliminates all temptations (duh). While in out patient treatment you go to therapy, or group meetings maybe a few times a week ( relapse trap).


Anyway. It will be a good paper. But I'm in jerseyyy soooo gotta go.

Is it a realiable site?... from "Just a mom"

soooooo for my last blog I got all my  information from http://tourettenowwhat.tripod.com/all_about_tics.htm who got their information on tics from
From Chapter 2, pp. 24 - 26, of Tourette's Syndrome : Tics, Obsessions, Compulsions : Developmental Psychopathology and Clinical Care, by James F. Leckman, Donald J. Cohen, John Wiley & Sons; November 1998.
From Table 2.1, page 25, of Tourette's Syndrome : Tics, Obsessions, Compulsions:

But at the bottom of the website there disclaimer saying that this website saying that the website was made by "just a mom not a medical professional". So no I do not think it is the most realiable website to be using all thought I did find all the information to be accurate being that I have two sisters with tourettes and I already knew what that mom was telling me. 
kkkkk thanks bye.

Essay 1 What my research told me about tourettes

To write my paper about tourettes I still needed to know about the motor tics, simple phonic tics and complex phonic tics

What is a tic- a tic is a invoulentary physical movement or vocal sound that occurs randomly. 

Motor tics

• Motor tics are the physical tics
• Occur mainly in areas where many muscles are located such as the head, neck, arms, torso.
• younger paintents with tourettes have tics motor tics with less purpose such as shoulder movements, head shakes, bladder tics, bowel tics, making faces, clicking teeth, jaw snapping, arm and leg extenstions but as the paintents get older their motor tics may delvope  more of a purpose, such as biting, bending, grooming, skin picking, or hitting, this are more rare though although often stero typed.

 Simple Phonic Tics

• Random sounds and noises
• Charactorized  by the amount of time the sound lasts the frequency, the intensity, and the chance of it inturpting everyday normal speech. 
• These sounds can sometimes be supressed but then the person with tourettes with often shortly after have an intense outburst
• air sallowing, coughing, clicking, breath holding, grunting, clearning throat,  noisy breathing, spitting,  whistling,  sniffing, sniffiling, groaning, gasping, and wheezing
