I'm probably generalizing and assuming you are feeling as bad as I did. If you feel like reducing the dose helped a bit, please do use your own best judgment! I don't know if its the same for you or not--I know some people on antipsychotics get it and they just pace, but I wasn't on an antipsychotic, my issues are depression and PTSD. I did read in one article that by the time people with drug-reaction akisthisia show up in an ER they're so freaked out they often run out of the ER and out the door in their bare feet. That's how it felt for me--like it just kept ramping up, like when your car accelerator gets stuck.

I do think if you are feeling 'not right' that should matter. If it doesn't bother your pdoc too much, I'd ask him why not. Does he think it will go away? I mean, it seems to me you deserve to feel your best and if that's not happening you need either an explanation of why you should put up with it or you need some help fixing it.

If you start getting that 'stuck accelerator' feeling, I'd go to the ER, yes. But maybe I'm overreacting. I'm not a doctor, just relaying my own experience with it.
