Landon Parker, the son of Blink-182 drummer Travis Parker, has revealed that he has Tourette Syndrome.
The 20-year-old musician posted a video on TikTok in response to a follower who asked him if he had a disorder.
“I thought I would have to talk about it eventually,” he said. “But yes, I do have Tourette's syndrome, but it's very mild.”
“I've been having this for as long as I can remember, like in kindergarten. I remember this exactly because the teacher would accuse me of moving her eyes. Because one of my tics was like that. It was a weird thing I did with my eyes,” he continued.
Landon also explained that his most common “tics” now include shaking his head and making movements with his jaw. “Yes, this really happens in stressful situations and stressful environments for me,” he said.

It should be noted that Tourette syndrome is a chronic neurological disorder, which results in the presence of some involuntary, rapid, out-of-context spasms, with varying frequency and severity.
