Baylen Out Loud

I just finished the first episode of Baylen Out Loud. I've came across some of her videos on tik tok before in the past. Miss Baylen absolutely radiates such beautiful and loving energy. I can't tell you how invested I was in not only listening to her educate me on her struggles, but to engage with how she has to live every single day with this illness. The whole time I'm putting myself in her shoes and feeling her emotions alongside her. It completely shatters me on the inside to observe and listen to the invasive, cruel mistreatment of other humans towards this beautiful human. She deserves so much better. Being her age, I completely understand the need for my independence. I feel for her sister, Sammi, specifically when they gathered at Harpers Ferry, her anger and protectiveness for her sister I can feel. I can feel her blood boiling through the screen. I truly know what it feels to be ready anytime to go toe to toe with anyone trying to hurt someone I love. Sammi, you are valid to want to crash out on everyone. I see you girl. I wish Baylen all the luck in this very cruel world and hope she doesn't let the ugliness of other humans dim the light that is her soul.

Impressed and also in love with this whole family, her best friend and her boyfriend and how they honestly deal with Baylens TS, they don't baby her or shelter her. The show doesn't make fun of her or her TS and I appreciate the honest look into her struggles and successes. Baylee has a lot of challenges and triggers yet she continues to put herself out there and navigate a sometimes cruel world. It can't be easy for any of them to be put in the spotlight like this. Bringing awareness is the only way to remove the stigma associated with TS.

Sad to see all the haters comment.

Highly recommend.

I absolutely love Baylen and her incredible family. I am a Social Worker who advocates for those with developmental disabilities and special needs.

The consistent desire to live independently is one I hear daily from the people and families I support.

In Illinois we have an agency called The Illinois Assistive Technology Program. They have all of the latest technology to assist people to live independently, from safety devices, communication, devices, even a robotic cat for those who can't have real pets. There is an apartment set up in their building that is equipped with all the latest equipment. There are remote surveillance cameras that can help provide safety and independence. There are so many technologies that can help people live on their own safely and provide some relief to families who fear it is too dangerous. Surely there are these types of agencies all over the country to explore and find solutions. I hope Baylen and those who love her are able to find a solution until something is discovered that can end this struggle for Baylen. She is just so amazing, strong, brave, loving, and hilarious.

I've been following Baylen on TikTok for a really long time and I truly loved getting to see her interact up close and personal with her family and boyfriend. I can't imagine what it must be like for all of them. Her siblings all seem sweet and supportive and it's obvious Baylen is a sweet girl who is eager for independence. My heart breaks every time they show her out in public. I have adult children and can empathize with the parents wanting to protect her from that as well as wanting her to stay home so they can keep her safe. I think everyone should watch this to educate themselves on Tourette's Syndrome. One episode in and I'm hooked - cannot wait to find out what happens when Collin receives his orders and Baylen moves out!

Baylen just seems like such a kind soul. I have already learned so much from just a few episodes, not only is it educating but entertaining. I highly encourage anyone who doesnt know much, or anything at all, about Tourette's syndrome to watch, or maybe if youre just curious like myself and want to know more. We could all learn so much from her, from how to be patient with yourself, to be a little more understanding to a stranger. I hope that this show helps others going through the same feel less alone, and I hope Baylen sees how adored she already is. I cannot wait to see her grow, and to learn more things from her.
