Aripiprazole
I started taking it a week ago and i think it's helping, i am feeling better and more back-to-normal.
Altho it gives me wretched akathisia :/
Benadryl blocks the akathisia but it takes a little bit to kick in which is i horrible 30-45 minutes. then it gives me fatigue and Aphasia for hours afterward, which basically means i can't do anything because i have to sleep and i can't talk very well.
So it's either suffer the inner restlessness itching sensation... or be strung out on benadryl
i've tried prescription meds for akathisia that my pdoc gave me- Cogentin and Artane, neither is effective. Only diphenhydramine.
Anyone have any tips or home remedies for akathisia? I can't be pacing all day in agony, i have stuff to do besides walking in circles to stave off the horrible sensation
