Question Do Tourettes and Autism go hand in hand?

TLDR: Do Tourettes and Autism go hand in hand?
In the forum thread initiated by Lammchen asking if individuals with Tourette's Syndrome also have autism, the consensus among users is that while Tourette's Syndrome and autism are distinct conditions, there is a higher prevalence of co-occurrence than in the general population. Users emphasized that having one does not necessarily mean having the other, but the possibility of comorbidity exists. Several users shared personal experiences or cited studies indicating that some people may indeed have both conditions, suggesting a need for comprehensive evaluation when symptoms of both are present.
