Ive had TD since i was 15, im 28 now, and to be honest, its not really affecting my life as badly as i hear from others. Perhaps because i developed it so early on from anti psychotic medication, it does it annoying when i try to focus (like eyeliner, drinking from a glass, anything that requires focus) but its more irritating when my father who, only in public, points it out. Even though he knows about it, he still points it out as if it just happened. I get other muscle jerks but i came to accept it, in fact its now something that i appreciate. Annoying yes, but I've lived with it for so long i can't imagine life without it. Not trying to romanticize it, hopefully it doesn't come off that way.

Yeah I tried to get help from my neuro. He laughed at me refused to do an MRI and said I was just anxious. He loves to remind me I was on klonopin from another neuro. He put in my file it was for anxiety when in reality the neuro was trying to treat dystonia. Drs have become horrible people. No one told me about TD or akathisia. Now my life is ruined.

I have terrible TD. It's so embarrassing to have people laugh at you like you're on the school ground. I asked a neurologist about taking a TD med I seen advertised on TV. He told me in time it would look like I had Parkinson's. I'm so pissed I wasn't told about TD from the initial drug I was given that started it all. I'm thankful the Neurologist told me the TD drug would make things worse.
