Hi Tepiaca,
Thank you for your kind words.
I didn't develop any movement problems in the beginning- they showed up all at once after several years on perphenazine and involved dystonia and lack of coordination during the acute onset. My limbs and breathing muscles were also affected for a while.
Have you asked your doctor about the movements? Perhaps you can stay with the atypicals and go off perphenazine? Do you feel that the perphenazine has an added effect which the atypicals don't?
In response to your question, I am not married since I suffer from severe social phobia and cannot connect with other people.
I developed TD at age 29 and don't really suffer from what is left of it. From the outside it isn't really noticeable so I am lucky about that. Meds like Klonopin can cover it up at times.
How are you managing? Are you happy?I wish you all the best,
Kari.
