Answers: Why does Tourettes make you only scream out bad things ? Why not loveable phrases and kind word? Its always the four letter words and stuff.

It's not always cuse words, sometimes its just ticks and twitches and sometimes it's just yelling out loud.

The feeling builds up like a sneeze until they can't hold it anymore and they need to release. It's involuntary but it might be a bit culturally influenced, especially when they have to blurt out four letter words.

I think tourettes is related to the feeling we all have when we get nervous or think of something very embarassing. When most of us think about the most embarassing moment of our lives, we feel impulsed to give a nervous little laugh or sound.

we are all blank pages when born...so words are heard and learned....bad words get attention,a reaction could it be a cry for help?

It can be any word really,it's not just bad things,but possibly the words you're mentioning is because subconciously the person is trying to repress those words more than any other and it's more of a battle,so it ends up coming out more,kind of ironic...Tourettes also makes a person have uncontrollable muscle ticks and twinges...

Not always - BLUE MONKEY-
Sometimes it can just -SAUSAGE CRACK - be random words.
It is a very complex condition that should be taken seriously.
Maybe they just - BLING WANG- shout out things that they have suppressed in there mind?
-ARS E SHLONGER.

The utterance of socially unacceptable things is called coprolalia. Actually, only about 15% of diagnosed tourette syndrome patients have this. Coprolalia is just one type of nervous tics that may come with tourettes syndrome. The most common tics are eye blinking and throat clearing.

This is interesting:

"the tics of Tourette's are temporarily suppressible and preceded by a premonitory urge.[16] Immediately preceding tic onset, most individuals with Tourette's are aware of an urge[17] that is similar to the need to sneeze or scratch an itch. Individuals describe the need to tic as a buildup of tension[18] which they consciously choose to release, as if they "had to do it".[19] Examples of the premonitory urge are the feeling of having something in one's throat, or a localized discomfort in the shoulders, leading to the need to clear one's throat or shrug the shoulders."
