Hi. Somehow with my physical disabilities that I have, it seems that one of these symptoms is a lower lip that slides in left or right direction when I speak and with crooked teeth. I also sound kind of odd when I speak (rather slow and deep nasaly). I need help, but my parents won't believe this problem. Can I help solve this "symptom"?

Are you on any medications, as to me if this has only just started it could very well be related to side effects of medication. Either way you need to see a doctor, or ask a teacher at school that you trust to help you, etc.

Yes. I do take medication but I think my mom is trying to tell me that I am being self-conscious, which I kind of believe.

Do you use antipsychotics (neuroleptics)? Using them may, among other things, lead to tardive dyskinesia, which it sounds like what it may be that you've started to get.

Read more in a thread of mine:

If you are using what I mentioned, you need to stop using them immediately. Otherwise it may become a permanent problem.
