“A relentless storm rages within me, a maelstrom born out of this irritating affliction called Akathisia. This isn't just restlessness; it's akin to being trapped in a never-ending marathon with invisible shackles chaining every muscle, nerve, and inch of my being. I see the world around me as vibrant, lively, and pulsating with life, yet I'm confined to this lonely island of agony, isolated and misunderstood. Every moment is a battle against an invisible enemy that holds my peace hostage. I clench my fists, grit my teeth, and ride out the waves of torment. But the relentless onslaught of Akathisia never ceases. An unseen demon has sunk its claws into my soul, forcing me to endure this relentless turmoil. I look into the mirror and see a stranger staring back, a hollow shell writhing in pain, enslaved by an unseen tormentor. The cruel irony is that the world continues to spin, oblivious to the infernal landscape that has become my existence. From sunrise to sunset, the silent scream of Akathisia echoes within me, a chilling reminder of the hell on earth I am condemned to.”
― Jonathan Harnisch, Sex, Drugs, and Schizophrenia

“The bed was now a hospital bed. His legs, arms, and hands were covered in white bandages and gauzes...He said, sobbing slightly, “I don’t know what to do…I don’t know what to do,” his hands fell back down in frustration. I noticed his face was almost discolored. His left eye looked messy, and his right eye was nearly hanging out. It looked like deterioration. The parts of his eyelid that should be supporting his right eye were falling apart with pale, green-like holes. It was dry with no blood. It greatly disturbed me because I wanted to help him but didn’t know how.”
