the term 'akathisia' pre-dates neuroleptics and other akathisia-inducing drugs; its just been used to describe that syndrome a lot.
There used to be (maybe still is) an "akathitic depression". I think its like agitated depression, only it presents with more fidgetiness or something...anyway, that might be a good conceptualization of what you're dealing with.
