Tardive Dyskinesia

Hi everyone. I’m so scared. My doc is lowering my mood stabilizer to stop Tardive Dyskinesia symptoms (a psychiatric drug-induced disorder). I’m terrified of ending up in the hospital again. Anyone who is bipolar doing ok with a low dose or no mood stabilizer?

Also, does anyone else feel like their posts “get lost” on this app? There are so many new posts that they seem to become old and not read in less than 30 minutes. Just a bit frustrated.

I’ve been rocking side to side while sitting & standing for about a year. I thought it was anxiety. I now have a (mild) facial tic. I’ve been reading that psychiatric drugs can cause these symptoms even years after starting the meds. Anyone been diagnosed with this or with Akathisia? What treatments have worked?

Hi, my name is aradioactive. I'm here because I have bipolar disorder, tardive dyskinesia, an eating disorder and ADHD. (sometimes, new doctors treat me like I'm radioactive until they get to know me). LOL

Looking for friendships with people with schizophrenia and other conditions . Atm I’m not sure if I have schizophrenia or if they’re just lying to me. #Schizophrenia #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #MentalHealth #ChronicIllness #Psychosis #TardiveDyskinesia #SchizophreniaSpectrumPsychoticDisorders
