> psychotic depression but i really think ocd
True psychotic depression could probably be managed with a less activating atypical like Seroquel; I know someone with that diagnosis and medication regime. However I won't second guess your doctor. I've had akathisia from Abilify, it wasn't as bad as Geodon where I was writhing on the floor. As for medications other than klonopin to regulate it, I would vote for biperiden (Akineton) as a good anticholinergic. Your pharmacy may have to special order it, its not stocked frequently like Cogentin. It however has much less nasty atropine effects, in my opinion.
