Q: constant trembling ?

Recently I had some sort of mental breakdown Shocked 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?? Shocked

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. Wink

Constant shaking
I have had constant trembling for 8 months or so now. The movements are tiny and it feels at times like my whole body is vibrating. If I squat down like i'm going to sit in a chair it becomes more obvious as my muscles begin to tremble. I am in very good physical condition and eat well. I think I may have had a anxiety attack or minor nervous breakdown that brought this on. I'm not sure if it has gotten slightly better or I am learning to live with it. I take Inderol once in a while and it helps a little bit. Inderol is used to treat performance anxiety and high blood pressure. It is not anxiety, although my anxiety makes the problem much worse. I think it may be time for me to visit a neurologist. I also read that some shaking problems can be brought on by thyroid issues.
