I had akathisia on Risperdal (it felt like the worst thing ever!). Because of it I took long walks with my parents, which helped, sometimes 3+ times per day. I've heard that exercise really helps. Also, there are meds for it but my pdoc never prescribed me anything even though I was suffering a great deal.

If it wasn't for akathisia, Risperdal would have been a very good med for me.
