Tardive Dyskinesia connected to meds
A disorder that causes uncontrollable body movements as a result of side effects from certain medications is getting more attention. Mental health is a topic that's becoming much less taboo as more people talk about their diagnoses and treatments. And, as more people talk, they're able to learn about the impacts of the conditions they have and medications they take. As with many medications, some prescribed for mental health conditions can have unintended side effects, including a condition called tardive dyskinesia. It's a disorder that causes uncontrollable movements in the face, torso and other body parts. It's caused by antipsychotic medications prescribed for conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and others.

They made me take the stuff when I was a teen and now I’ve twitched and had tics for thirty years!
Shouldn’t doctors tell their patients who are being prescribed these drugs that Tardive Dyskinesia is a possible side effect, and what to watch for so that they can tell their doctors if they start experiencing these movements disorder and can get help before it’s to late to reverse? Isn’t that part of their oath to cause no harm?
