I feel like I want to rip off my skin because I am so uncomfortable. My doctor gave me cogentin for this but it takes awhile to build in your system. It's so debilitating for me that I'm on medical leave from work for a month. To me these symptoms feel like a panic attack. Is that how u feel?

In the past it was as extreme as you have mentioned. One time it was the biggest nightmare while awake that I had ever experienced as an adult. I thought of checking myself into a hospital. Right now this may not be truely Akathesia but still uncomfortable.
