Hi!
>But you think that they do allow that some people recover from TD symptoms?
TD is usually long lasting, but not necessarily permanent.
To quote the DSM....
If the individual with TD remains off neuroleptic medication, the dyskinesia remits within 3 months in one-third of the cases and remits by 12-18 months in more than 50% of cases, although these percentages are lower in older persons.
