    Im just wondering if anyone else has experience of this. I have been on the drug solian for long term psychossis for about four months. About a month ago i started having a funny feeling in my hands and jaw, my fingers were moving slightly and my tongue was moving a quite a bit. From the research i have done these are all symptoms of Tardive Dyskenisia and once you have these symptoms they can be permanent. My psychiatrist wanted to put me on a lower dose 200mg, i was on 250mg, and for me to take a side effect drug i cant remember the name of but i ignored his advice and stopped taking the drug completely. The reason i did this was because these symptoms can be permanent and the longer you take anti psychotics the worse the symptoms cans get. Anyone else experience this.
