I'd hate to say it because I'll get slapped for generalizations, but lets just leave it that I will leave "prozactruth" for alternative.
The chance of TD from prozac is extroardinary minimal and the benefits way outweigh the risks. Only Zoloft has a extremely miniscule chance because of dopamine regulation and I emphasize that.Yes -- subconsciously generated ulcerations are real. They're not TD. They're not close to TD. And they're also not factitious. One doesn't intend to do them but stress can induce them. If anything I could surmise you don't have enough covering things.
But you will have to make your own viewpoint. I've taken the neuroleptic atypical route and I can tell you what feels (but still isnt) closer to TD than that.
I hope you feel better.
