You aren't covering up the real you if the real you has OCD and Tourettes. Physician and medication simply make life easier. You aren't permanently sedated - you just feel better about things and yourself.
I don't know anyone who is "dull and boring" when on the proper medication.
Of course, it would appear at this point that your mother makes the medical decisions. You have been diagnosed with both OCD and Tourette's, right?

And if that's what works with you, then that's what you should do.
On the other hand if you ever need help from medication, you know it's available.

So - how is the cat? And what's his/name name?
I never had a cat. I'm a dog person, but every time I see a kitten I wonder if it would fit in with two (very big) dogs.
Is this your first cat?
