How to withdraw medicine

I already suffering from akathesia (hyperalert in head)

Got it from taking 2mg risperidone which was eliminated and i switched to lumateperone 42mg

Skipping 1 lumateperone 42mg dose made akathesia worse for 24 hours

I want to fully get off lumateperone 42mg and ativan 1mg

What can be a safe taper in this case

As lumateperone 42mg could be stopping the akathesia from fully resolving

Ativan 1mg can't take it for long

Pls help!

Sleep disturbances

After staring risperidone fragmented sleep getting up 3 times per night[took for 2 months]

On lumateperone (42mg) now get up every hour or so

Its very difficult to sleep[taking since 3 months now]

On 1mg ativan at night taking since 5 months

Sometimes just 1 hour of sleep at night after forcing myself

Still the disturbances are persistent

Should I consider stopping lumateperone?

Anyone else faced issues like these and when did they recover ?

What is the mechanism behind these antipsychotic induced sleep issues ?
