Recently I had some sort of mental
breakdown and I'm trying to
drag myself up out of this. One thing i
can't figure out though....I shake
(tremble) constantly now. ESPECIALLY
right after I wake up! Even a 10 minute
nap is enough to greatly increase the
shaking. This is a very disturbing feeling
which can often lead me into an
anxiety/panic attack almost immediately
upon waking. I don't use any kind of
caffeine and the only meds I take are
xzanx and things of that nature (not a
lot, usually only half a pill).
has anyone else had this??? It scares me
bad!! Please help, tell me this happens to
us nervous types a lot and I'm not the
only one!
(FYI-I've had panic attacks as I'm waking
but usually it's the racing heart. I've
had shaking/trembling upon waking but it
was only occasionally and only after very
heavy sleep. This is constant!!) Can a
severe mental break/meltdown/burnout cause
some sort of actual nerve or neurological
damage, maybe??

I sounds like you are very responsible
with taking what you are on. And that is
the best thing of all. IMHO, this really
does mimic anxiety of some sort at it's
worst in you. Don't talk yourself into
anything neurological right away. This is
part of setting yourself up for a worse
anxiety then you have. Let a professional
diagnose you and then you can hang that
anxiety up to dry. We all are to fast to
say " I must have this, because I match
most of the symtoms". Just remember that.
