Akathisia is a syndrome characterized by unpleasant sensations of inner restlessness that manifests itself with an inability to sit still or remain motionless. It can be a side effect of medications, mainly neuroleptic antipsychotics.
Worth bringing up to your pdoc.

Abilify does cause this problem for man people. I don't think it's hypomania, but Akathesia like was said in this reply. If you are very uncomfortable and cannot keep still, tell your pdoc. It is a very uncomfortable feeling.
