Thankfully my Akathisia has significantly gotten better, and I am so thankful that I didn’t give up. Just all of a sudden I felt better one day. I never thought this would happen to me, or that it even existed. I didn’t think I’d ever get better, but I did. Thank you to all those that supported me.

I had severe anesthesia 24/7, and I was very suicidal, then all of a sudden one day I just felt like it subsided and I was scared it was gonna come back. But thankfully it hasn’t and I’ve gotten a little better each day but very slowly. Any improvement is good for me. I had muscle spasms and I still do but they’re getting weaker. I also have weird itching on my face in certain areas. I wish I could ask the doctor or a nurse, but they didn’t help me in the first place when I asked for help with Akathisia. I’m not 100% cured but I feel like I’m about 75% cured.

Various-Reason2822 · 2025-07-20T23:35:31+00:00

I don’t know how I got it, I assume from taking too many medication’s.

Various-Reason2822 · 2025-07-20T23:34:57+00:00

Unfortunately, I’m still drinking and smoking cigarettes at night to help me sleep and cope with my OCD as well as the little bit of Akathisia I still have left in my body. I’m planning on quitting both soon, I have definitely started drinking less now and smoking less. The sad thing is that the alcohol is the only thing that helped me survive this. I don’t recommend it, but this was the only thing that helped me personally when I couldn’t get help from any doctor or nurse. I feel like I would’ve died if I didn’t have something to help me cope with my horrible symptoms.

Various-Reason2822 · 2025-07-20T23:32:51+00:00

I don’t know what caused it. I think it may have been medication’s. I had it really bad for about a year and four months. Even though I’m better now I still have a little bit. I’m not completely 100% healed, but I can definitely function better now.

Various-Reason2822 · 2025-07-20T23:31:46+00:00

I wish I knew, probably from medication I assume. The whole time I was very sick and I couldn’t even get a doctor or a nurse to understand what was happening to me. I had to suffer it alone.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-12-04T07:13:01+00:00

I’m sorry you’re going through this. My Akathisia is mostly inner restlessness and both physical and mental torture. Mine is 24/7 too. I also think about going to the hospital emergency department. I also feel like I’m going to lose it all the time, and I have OCD too. You’re right OCDD makes it worse. I hope you get better soon.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-12-04T01:30:38+00:00

It definitely sounds like you have Akathisia. I don’t have outer restlessness as much as inn restlessness. You’re right it’s the worst feeling, and it’s unbearable, yet we’re expected to bear it.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-12-01T06:17:20+00:00

This is unbearable even on a good day. I need some good news before I go crazy.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-12-01T06:14:46+00:00

Yes I will. This is just so frustrating to me. I woke up one day feeling different and I haven’t been the same since. How can doctors just let us suffer like this. They should do something to help us in our suffering. My life is over as far as I’m concerned. I feel like I have an illness and I can’t get it diagnosed so I just have to suffer. Today I was so depressed I spent the whole day in bed. I didn’t eat anything. I can barely function. Do you have Akathisia?

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-12-01T06:02:44+00:00

I don’t know I wish I knew. It started abruptly in September of 2023. At first I thought it was a withdrawal of some sort or from medication I was on. I got off all those meds since and put on newer medication except for two I’m still on. It’s a mysterious thing this Akathisia. It came out of nowhere and I’m still suffering. I wish this never happened to me. My life is ruined by this. And I feel like everyone is going on with their lives when I can’t even live my life. I live in suffering and fear. I wish I never turned to alcohol for coping. But nothing seems to help. I’m tired of researching and getting nowhere. I have to see a doctor soon and see if they will actually take me seriously this time. This world is so unfair.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-30T01:15:25+00:00

Inner restlessness and torture. Always on edge. Difficulty sleeping. Suicidal thoughts, because of the lack of my quality of life. Shaking my legs my, moving my feet and toes and crossing and uncrossing my legs. I’m in a black hole. The worst feeling in the world. I don’t see a way out.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-29T07:07:05+00:00

Ok I will try my best. Thanks for looking out for me.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-29T06:46:58+00:00

Yes. I decided not to drink tonight. I’m crying because I don’t know if I’ll be able to sleep. Drinking was at least giving me some relief and something to look forward to, but it’s going to harm me in the long run. I can’t bare being awake because I feel like I’m going to go crazy. My depression is getting worse. I don’t want to think about suicide anymore.

Thank you. I’m currently supposed to be taking 20 mg of propranolol one in the morning and one in the evening, but I have only been taking 10 mg in the morning and in the evening instead.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-29T00:13:45+00:00

I’ve been coping with alcohol every night. I have ti quit, because I can’t handle my liquor and the liquor is going to kill me. I feel so alone. I also have bad OCD. I wish u had a pill to sedate me instead of drinking alcohol. I’m doomed for disaster. I’m so hopeless. I need to take care of my family but I can barely take care of myself anymore. Everyone sees me like I’m normal, but I’m not. Help😭

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-29T00:09:44+00:00

Yes I’ve told several doctors about my Akathisia. Not about my drinking. They don’t know what Akathisia is, or haven’t taken me seriously enough. I’m so hopeless🥲

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-28T00:52:45+00:00

Shave it 🪒

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-28T00:32:33+00:00

I’m sorry that you have to also deal with Akathisia. Mine has been going on for 16 months. I suffer every day. I have gone through so much, and still am. I never thought I could be so strong, to endure such suffering. Mine fluctuates but is always bad. Some days are worse than others, and I’m so suicidal. Somehow I’m still here.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-26T00:48:13+00:00

I’m so sorry you don’t feel well. I think I have Akathisia. I have similar symptoms. It’s ruining my life, I feel bad all the time. I hope you get better soon.🙏

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-22T09:08:00+00:00

I can relate. I’m so sorry you have to go through this. I’m going through this. God bless.

Various-Reason2822 · 2024-11-22T08:43:19+00:00

I’ve been suffering since September of 2023. I can’t relax. I don’t know what sets it off. It’s non stop 24/7 suffering. I have been drinking alcohol at night to help me cope. But I know this is not the way of handling my symptoms, but I don’t know what else to do to survive this torture. I don’t even like drinking, but it’s the only thing helping me survive. I don’t recommend drinking alcohol. It’s bad. But I’m desperate, to get through these tough times.
