Tardive Dyskinesia is a serious, irreversible neurological disorder that can appear at any age. Tardive Dyskinesia is a side effect of taking antipsychotic / neuroleptics drugs. Symptoms can be hardly noticeable or profound. Symptoms involve uncontrollable movement of various body parts, including the body trunk, legs, arms, fingers, mouth, lips, or tongue. Once any symptom of Tardive Dyskinesia appear, the antipsychotic / neuroleptic must be discontinued. About 20 percent of people taking antipsychotic / neuroleptic drugs for more then one year will be affected.

like Stelazine and Navane. They are cheap. Do I smell the NHS ?BTW, too little or too much for a brain chem is not the cause of mental illness. It is much more
complex than that, but the Docs throw this about
to help us understand. In truth neuroscience is still new, so the no one knows the full picture yet.It would really help to know a little more than just SA about you and your condition. What issues/problems/feelings do you need help with ?
What is the worst, bugs you the most, ect. Knowing where you live, just the area (UK,USA, ect) helps so we know what health resources you have.
