If your getting spasms or jerks, etc., write down all the meds your taking and at what time of day. Take this to your Psychiatrist/Doctor to see if the meds are fighting against each other. If not, ask for meds comparable (equal) to the ones you've been taking, but different so they can stop the TD's from happening. At least that's what I did when I started jerking my legs, arms, etc. Since I've altered (changed) my meds, I've been "jerky" free. : ) Good Luck
