I have had akathisia and it can be really annoying compulsive feeling of needing to move. Cariprazine does cause it with high probability, but Latuda was absolutely hellish on that regard. Hopefully you find some relief from something, at least over time. Just stopping the drug or getting used to it was my approach to the problem.

wow, what a ride. you went through a lot! i tried mitrazipine before but my latest doctor of 5 years never prescribed me it. and yes benzetropine makes my throat dry and a get bad tremors. i have been using food before taking seroquel and allergy medicine which seems to help some lol. its something. i got 2 days until doctor appointment.
