Has anybody heard of Akathisia? Fricking brutal how long the withdrawal can last like are you kidding me?!

I just found out about this disorder last week & im honestly blown away like ive done methadone withdrawal 3 times & the longest i was dopesick was 22 days solid & i thought that was long but its nothing compared to Akathisia withdrawal OMG!

Do you mean this? Do you know what caused it? Have you spoken to your doctor?

I had akathisia caused by meds a few years back and it was probably the worst thing I ever suffered, akin to torture. It eventually fizzled out when I stopped taking those meds. But you should really talk to your prescriber before stopping any meds.
