Akathisia is awful. I get it with Latuda, so I take the Latuda right at bedtime, and that way I don't experience the akathisia that happens a couple hours after taking it. By morning, it's gone, thankfully. I'm glad I'm tapering off of the Latuda and I'll be off it soon so I don't have to eat such a big snack at bedtime anymore.
