This interview is with Jill Nickens of  Akathisia Alliance for Education and Research

Akathisia is an extremely distressing neurological disorder characterized by severe agitation, an inability to remain still, and an overwhelming sense of terror. It is primarily a medication side effect. People with this condition can quickly become suicidal and even homicidal. Akathisia is far more common than has been reported in the past and remains dangerously under-diagnosed and under-reported today.

This podcast should not be used in the place of medical advise or psychological treatment. The goal is to help raise awareness about Akathisia. Please considering sharing with mental health and medical professionals in your circle.
