medication helped me with restlessness but it was still hard to control, eventually i just started to sit down as much as i could and tried to block it out, it has worked but idk if everyone can do that, anyway this is just a good guess as to how i stopped it and i think it is correct.
Yeah it is best just to occupy the mind it is hard though 
Like walking on a treadmill while reading O_o

Try and get your meds changed or take something to stop side effects like cogentin
I already do that in my mind XD when I am pacing. It is really fun! But I have to have music on most of the time!
Magnesium has really helped my akathisia, and I take only a total of daily recommended dose in 2 separate doses. I was pacing maybe 4-5 hours a day and now less than an hour. Don’t want to take the meds for akathisia that have side-effects of their own. I buy some high absorption stuff online but the regular pills from pharmacy helped too, just a little bit less. Your results may vary ofc.

I just read on the Treadmill. I learned how genes are turned on and off. It actually mentioned sz and psychosis as being a result of mutations in chromatin structures. Interesting !
