I was paralysed from the neck down 🏥

My social media 👇🏻

Stream my NEW SINGLE "She's Mine" here🙈

Tourette's syndrome is a neurological condition and disability which causes involuntary movements called tics. I use my platforms on social media such as TikTok, YouTube and Instagram to advocate and raise awareness for the condition and show what it is like living with a disability as a teen in school.
My name is Zara Beth (zeezee25 on tiktok) and I post videos about tics, tic disorders and what its like to be a teen living with Tourette's syndrome, Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) and a seizure disorder (NEAD/NES).
I show what its like having tics and Tourettes in class and in school and college, vlog, and I also bake, do other challenges and answer all your questions in Q and A videos.
I am also an ambulatory wheelchair user so I show what life looks like using various mobility aids and how needs change from day to day!
I am also a musician! My newest release is my first single (original song) called "She's Mine" which is now available on all streaming services - I sing and play piano, guitar, ukulele and I write, produce, mix and master all my own songs and content myself!

I have FND too, and it is amazing to see someone who is doing so much to make people aware of our condition and is being so incredibly positive about it. Thank you for sharing. Hope you have a great day!

[IZZYARCTICMONKEYS]

oh god! You’re doing so well, Zara! I know you can get through this❤️😢

I was paralyzed from the hips down. I can understand how hard it is to get past those times, but you are a strong and capable woman and if you can get past that then you can get past anything❤❤❤

[whoissaffron]

bro this legend deserves an oscar for how good she’s coping with all this. Hope you’re better now tho :) love you zara :))


edit: y’all keep saying I’m saying that she’s acting i forgot that Oscars were awarded for acting 😭

[psleep]

I can’t imagine how you feel. You’re such a strong person. Praying you’re doing better now. ❤🙌🫶

I was diagnosed in May of 2022 with FND. I have mobility aids too. I have a cane, walker, and an electric wheelchair. I unfortunately also have drop foot. FND isn't fun. I haven't been fully paralyzed, but I have been in a coma for 3 days because of it. I remember nothing. Thank you for bringing more awareness to FND. I had to research on my own, and the doctor gave me some reading material too. I read everything! I researched. I didn't want to be ignorant towards myself.

Thank you so very much. I at least get to see someone else who has the same thing as me. 💞💜💞

[leilanibos]

God bless you girl. Hope you are better❤❤

[lunalexington]

I too was diagnosed with FND in November of 2021… I completely empathise with you!! It’s so scary but chin up lovely 😊

The more I learn about you, the more I realize how strong you are.
I'm in awe, and I wish I could do more than sending you love, but that's all I have.

❤️

[Incognizantmeeple]

You are the bravest person ive ever seen

[forrestbarrett]

Had no idea that could be part of it. Heartbreaking. Hang in there. I'll be praying for u

[wisewildwolf]

I have FND too and don't have the persona to make videos or photos to advocate. It's fantastic to see someone trying to show the public what it looks like as we're not believed and understood. I hope one day to have your outlook with my conditions. ❤❤️ xx

[zezinhooo]

"I cope well"
That shows how much stronger than me you are. Stay strong, and keep showing us how far you, and all of us can go

So decided to have a look at your channel after I saw your short mentioning FND. This is EXACTLY what happened to me when I got diagnosed. Paralysed from the neck down (I do also have episodes where I cant talk as well because of jaw lock). Its such a horrid condition with how things come and go, get worse and change to different symptoms etc.

[snowpuff]

I was diagnosed with POTS and FND. Come to find out, FND is something doctors came up with because they can’t find an answer for complex sickness. My friend, myself, and you have been diagnosed with FND and we all have different symptoms! My doctor said that it’s not a real diagnosis, which absolutely stinks. Turns out they just give it name when they can’t figure out what’s wrong with you and tell you it’s from traumatic experiences, even if you don’t have any (like me). They try to convince you you’re crazy and it’s all in your head.
