Hi labrat. I feel for you as I know just what you are going through. I had to stop the Abilify as I simply could not tolerate the akathisia. My pdoc has actually switched me to Zyprexa. I am concerned about the weight gain but it seems much better than experiencing the akathisa.
Hang in there, it does go away over time. My advice though is to not just stop an AP altogether suddenly. It would be better to talk to your pdoc about going back on the Zyprexa and then tapering if need be. Just a thought. Good luck.
