Travis Barker's son, Landon, has disclosed his experience with "very minor" Tourette Syndrome. 

In a recent social media post, the 20-year-old musician, who recently parted ways with TikTok sensation Charli D'Amelio, candidly discussed his nervous system disorder.

In a brief video shared online, Landon addressed his followers, stating, "Hi guys! I figured I’d speak on this eventually. 

But yeah, I actually do have very, very minor Tourette’s." 

Described by the Mayo Clinic, is a condition characterized by repetitive movements or involuntary sounds (tics) that are difficult to control. 

He opened up about his syndrome diagnosis dating back to his early childhood.

Recounting his experiences, Landon revealed, "I’ve had it since I can remember, like preschool." He recalled a specific incident where a teacher accused him of rolling his eyes, attributing it to one of his tics involving eye movements.

"Yeah, it really just acts up in nervous situations and nerve-racking environments for me," he explained.

Despite the challenges, he decided to share his story, stating, "But I thought I’d just share because why not?"
