Going through trials when I became a mother myself I realize first hand the importance of having the right resources available for mothers struggling with PPD. As a healthcare worker I see first hand our health system failing us.
Signing this not only in memory of Savannah but for all the mothers who lost their battle with PPD. I had it and so many women suffer through this with more judgment and dismissal from medical providers than very real help. Voices need to be heard, before more are lost.
This is a heartbreaking and tragic situation. It is unacceptable that someone seeking help for their mental health was met with violence instead of assistance. Our communities deserve better from law enforcement. Justice must be served for Patrick and his loved ones. #JusticeForPatrick...
My sister is cursed by tardive dyskinesia.
She suffers every day, not only in her physical movements of uncontrollable situation, but in her mental status. The mental interference of this disorder is devastating she has changed. She’s gotten very thin her appetite changed. Her voice is changed. It’s putting horrific to watch to see your loved one go through this Shame on industry that developed and designed these formulas just supposedly helped their patience, but in long-term results are destroying their lives. That’s why we need scientific studies and facts of medications before their distributed to our loved ones friends and family. I hope that we as a group can do something about this to create change in our society. Specially going 2025.
My friend has this and it is debilitating. She has mouth sores all the times, her hips hurt from her legs constantly moving and at times she's too embarrassed to leave the house.
Her doctor didn't tell her to go off causation medicine and prescribed her Ingrezza and when that caused problems, she took Austedo that made her symptoms worse.
Doctors need to know how to treat it. She had see another doctor before and she complained about her symptoms and he dismissed them.
I truly believe that if it was treated correctly and caught early, it would not be permanent.
Med students need to see videos of ppl with tardive dyskenisia.
When I was in middle school many many years ago when we were too ashamed to report I had a gym teacher try to put his hand down my pants I was fighting him off and if it weren't for a very dear friend busting the door open I don't know what would have happened. Since then he has long since passed as well as my dearest friend. She was my angel that day for sure she could here me yelling help and she kicked and kicked until she busted the door open.
