Although tardive dyskinesia and tics are often treated with Abilify and a few other APs, there are infrequent reports of these drugs producing tics. This is an atypical (parodoxical) presentation.
The diagnosis of TD is rather precise. Symptoms include:
Involuntary and repetitive movements of the body;
Grimacing, tongue twitching and protrusion;
Lip smacking, puckering and pursing and blinking, and raising eyebrows;
Rapid movements of the arms, legs and trunk;
Involuntary movements of the fingers as though playing an invisible guitar or piano.
The involuntary movements of TD more often involves muscles located at the head and neck.
Shaking hands in TD occurs with a fixed pose of the fingers. The thumb and forefinger must remain in contact at their ends.
I think the term "Tardive Dyskinesia" is used too loosely and is overdiagnosed by posters on Psycho-Babble. It would be interesting to note who has been diagnosed with TD by their doctor.

Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.
