For me akathisia (a label) was not really emotional at all. No agitation. It was very ridged muscles and an inability to sit still. I had to keep moving to relax my muscles at all. Up all hours of the night pacing the block. Try that for 12 months. I don't even know how much the halidol helped with the psychosis. I wish I had been better at self advocating at the time.
