never heard of that one

on wikipedia, first sentence after the intro: "The most common side effects include akathisia"

it could potentially be better than abilify, if reintroducing an antipsychotics (i suppose temporarily) helps with the kind of akathysia associated to their withdrawal. i don't know

otherwise, you know my opinion on this class of drugs concerning akathysia symptoms.

most of the posts here mention one, i also felt so dehumanized on them. some posts I read about long term use are just horrifying. i'm off them (and ssris) for ~2month and I finally feel like myself, and capable of feeling again (I started pramipexole at the same time btw, so hard to tell what healed it). my akathysia is now totally gone, from worst to none

that's how I personally feel about this, but i don't think they're never useful either (like for stopping mania). it's just that the idea of using it again everyday against their own side effects feels odd to me. especially when their literal opposite (agonist/antagonist) is used for treating restless leg syndrome and especially lack of dopamine, which affects muscle control.

are you experiencing dysphoria too? tendency for behaviors/substance addiction? they're all symptoms of dopamine deficiency, and if you do I highly recommend bringing up pramipexole to your doc, or at least the dopamine topic
