Not necessarily an OH issue but would like to help in this case if I can - lady in her 40`s with a significant tardive dyskenesia secondary (apparently) to prolonged usage of SSRI`s. Has been seen by neurologist - apparently not a lot they can do. She is particularly bothered by mandibular movement which makes it look like she is "gurning". Subsequently loss of confidence, self conscious +++, wont go out etc. If it is pointed out to her that she is doing such actions she becomes aware and can stop it, I have been asked if I know of any other things she could try eg complementary therapies, self help that may assist with her symptoms. Not something I know a lot about - but sure there is someone out there on Jisc who may have some ideas or experience .....
