hi. all of them --can-- cause tardive syndromes. my problem is that now docs prescribe like its the 60s or something. an upper for this, a tranquilizer for that...it'll be great, kiddo! yeah, no.

akathisia sometimes goes away. obviously, it can also be suppressed w/ additional drugs. ive read stories of people who developed tardive akathisia on the 'atypicals,' and its...horrible. i mean, tardive dyskinesia is rough enough, tardive akathisia is non-stop, inner torment. some doctors apparently use opiates and/ or benzodiazepines which...makes life more bearable, im sure, but doesn't do a whole lot to fix anything.

i read one case report on tardive akathisia from abilify that responded to...remeron, i think. i forget the reasoning behind all that, but it worked.

i dunno. at this point, im doing the orthomolecular thing w/ the tranquilizer (abilify, in my case) and im doing much better than before the vitamins. no eps, no td, no akathisia, minimal drug induced dysphoria and cognitive problems, etc.
