A member asked:

Are akathisia and ocd related? i am diagnosed schizophrenia and ocd. however i do suffer from inner restlessness. i wonder if akathisia is causing ocd

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not really: OCD is more about an inner feeling requiring things to be a certain way to feel ok. Akisthesia is more discomfort that the movement is a response to.
