Hi Dan,

My Thoughts and prayers go out to Ari and your family.
being a parent, you just wish you could take their pain.

I also applaud you for taking a stand against this "hyper-syndromic" society we have seem to become.

I hope and pray that this side effect will be taken from Ari and that he can get back to being a normal teen with mood swings ;-)

I apologize in advance for this off topic. This is personal so if that is an issue for anyone you can stop reading here. Also to save bandwidth it would
be best not to post any responses here.

My 14 year old who is bi-polar has been diagnosed with Tardive Dystonia. In short this gives him symptoms facial and speech very much like someone with
advanced Parkinson's. It is a side effect of his medication Abilify.

We have suspected this was an issue for two years but all the Doctors kept
telling us it was not a side effect of this drug. Now of course we
understand it is and has been a known side effect in Japan for several
years.

Anyway stopping the medicine may or may not fix the problem. It could be permanent. So besides doing what the neurologist suggests, and looking at holistic therapy like homeopathy and Therapeutic touch it would be a great
help we believe for good thoughts and or prayers to be sent Ari's way.

Of course anyone who may have experience with this and wants to chime in
back channel we are in a major listening mode.

For anyone who does visualization or imagery with their healing thoughts
there is a picture of Ari up on our .mac site
