> Normally I would suggest diazepam for acute akathisia, due to its sedative muscle relaxant properties. Do you respond paradoxically to all benzos?

Thank you so much for all your help ed!

Yes, once the initial sedation wears off all benzodiazepines seem to make me worse unfortunately.

Doxylamine was helpful for sleep until I grew tolerant. I also think it was causing irritability the next day and worsening my anxiety in the long run.. I've read that antihistamines can up regulate adrenergic receptors with chronic use.

I'll pick up some benadryl later and see how I fair.
