No, I don’t. I keep hearing about this, but have never met anyone IRL that has TD. It’s like the SZ Boogeyman.

It’s a good news.i hope nobody encounters it.but Even still we should take preventing measures.
Which med are you on?? Atypical antipsychotics have much lower risk of TD.
Aripiprazole 5mg
There’s such a low risk from 5 mg abilify man I wouldn’t even worry!! If you wanna take these measures so be it, but you getting TD would be like getting struck by lightning practically!! Knocks on wood

Be careful about mega doses unless supported by scientific research.
Probably worry more about diabetes. Vitamin D is a good idea.
I’ve met a girl who had TD. The old cogwheel at the ankle. Didn’t seem to bother her or her doctor much. She was still on haloperidol.
Ya I’ve met a girl who had schizoaffective and TD. I said “damn I don’t have issues like that, I must not really be sza”. But I just got luckier with the meds.
If you’re taking vitamin e, make sure you are buying natural vitamin e with mixed tocopherols. Otherwise it can have side effects on physical health.
