I know how it feels to get severe akathisia. Even before I took the chlorpromazine, I was well aware that APs could cause akathisia (but I never realised how terrible it could be). The descriptions of akathisia in textbooks make it sound 'a bit annoying' but nothing more- especially as they claim it's releived by movement. Trying to describe how (severe)akathisia feels is impossible- it's like trying to explain what physical pain is like to someone who has never experienced it.
