(15,646 posts)My beautiful 27 year old daughter has this exact condition (cervical dystonia). She hid it from
everyone, including us (her family) for about 10 years by resorting to little tricks like propping her head on her hand/elbow on the table, playing with her long hair but actually pulling strands of her hair to hold her head still, etc. because she was afraid of looking like a freak. Several years ago, she finally told my wife and I -- largely because she was having a harder and harder time managing it and it was affecting her life. She resorted to drinking alcohol because she read that Katherine Hepburn did that to calm the condition down. It worked, but it also created a dependence on alcohol throughout the day. ... Anyway, my point is this relatively small condition can have immense negative impacts on the lives of those very few who are afflicted by it. So seeing something like this is absolutely terrific and inspiring. I will definitely share it with my daughter who just happens to love music more than just about anything else.
And thanks Frederico for sharing your wonderful story. As I'm sure my daughter would love to hear more about your progress and experience, I hope you will consider sharing more of your story and progress in the future.
