Distorted Minds


"For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic. Normal means lack of imagination, lack of creativity."

We were just attacked!

Super Juniors, 4-minute, 2ne1, Girls Generatioin, SS501, T-Max are just one of the popular group at South Korea. Sad to say that they already INVADED us. Okay, I admit that I love watching koreanovelas. Addicted, to say the least. It may be an odd choice for a guilty pleasure but there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. Don't worry, almost everyone has the same problem as you do. We are all victims of this phenomenon. The best thing we could do is to come clean. . Koreanovelas have become a part of Filipinos' lives.

Tourette syndrome

Have you seen people doing weird actions repeatedly? These people might suffering from a mental illness called Tourette syndrome. We can't deny the fact that we also have our own mannerisms but we can control it if we want to. Tourette syndrom is different from a normal mannerism, it is an inherited neuropsychiatric disorder that causes a person to make repeated and uncontrolled  rapid movements and sounds called tics. Tourette syndrome (simply called Tourette's or TS) is named after a French Physician and neurologist, Georges Gilles de la Tourette, who first describe this disorder in 1885. Tourette syndrome is passed down through families, although the exact causes is still unknown. A person with Tourette's has about a 50% chance of passing the genes to of his/her children, a condition of variable expression and incomplete penetrace. Between 1 and 10 children per 1,000 have TS; as many as 10 per 1,000 people may have tic disorders, with the more common tics of eye bl...
