Baylen's Sweetest Victories of the Season

Navigating life as a young adult with Tourrette Syndrome is no easy feat, but with a strong support system, Baylen Dupree has had so many big wins to be proud of! Look back at these powerful moments from Baylen Out Loud.

Birthday Bravery

Baylen's younger brother, Bechnir, wanted to spend his birthday playing games and having fun at Harper's Ferry. Unfortunately, Baylen had a negative experience there in the past. People were unkind to her and weren't understanding of her tics, so she and her family worried that would happen again.

Luckily, Baylen agreed to go and although she received some stares, she and her family had a wonderful time celebrating Bechnir's big day!

Chef Baylen

Baylen was on the road to gaining independence. She wanted to move out, but needed to master certain skills like cooking. However, some of Baylen's tics made cutting and preparing food into dangerous tasks. So, she and her family found ways to help, like introducing plastic knives in the kitchen.

A Successful Flight

Baylen got invited to speak at Tic-Con in Dallas, Texas. She was excited about the opportunity, but terrified to go through the airport and fly to the conference. Despite her nerves, Baylen and her mom, Julie, made the trip. Baylen was able to face her fears head on!

The Tic-Con Panel

Baylen admitted that she wasn't prepared to speak at Tic-Con, so her anxiety got the best of her. She experienced several tics while sitting with the panel, but she was able to tell her story and touch the hearts of those in the audience. In the end, Baylen's authenticity won over the crowd and Julie was so proud of her.

New Friends

Baylen met some awesome people at Tic-Con. So, she decided to hang out with the new friends she made. In the past, Baylen avoided befriending other people with Tourette Syndrome because she was scared they would absorb each other's tics or set them off. But now, she was thrilled to be part of a supportive community.

A Sigh of Relief

Baylen and her boyfriend, Colin, wanted to move in together! They agreed to share the news with his parents, Chuck and Marlene, towards the end of their visit to Roanoke, VA. Unfortunately, waiting to tell Colin's parents threw Baylen for a loop. Baylen worried that Colin's parents wouldn't approve of the new living situation and it flared her anxiety. She tried to suppress her tics and Colin could tell it was taking a toll on her.

In the end, she and Colin shared their plans and Chuck and Marlene were supportive of their decision. Baylen was so relieved.

Girls' Day

Baylen invited her longtime friend, Aileen, and newer friend from Tic-Con, Olivia, to go shopping! Although Baylen and Olivia set off each other's tics at times, they felt their friendship mattered way more.

Baylen also shared that she and Colin were moving in together and Aileen and Olivia were excited for her new chapter. The ladies bonded as they browsed for home decor and colorful houseware.

Now, she just had to find an apartment.

Trying a New Treatment

Baylen looked into non-invasive treatments to help with her tics. Olivia tried and suggested Botox inejections, later joining Baylen and Julie for an office visit. After talking with a professional, Baylen tried the injections to see if they would reduce the motor tics in her face and jaw.

Welcome Home

Baylen and Colin found a beautiful apartment! Baylen's family helped with the moving process and ushered them into this next chapter of their lives.
