On sunday I was out for lunch and I got up to look at my daughter playing on the grass. I had my arms folded as it was cold and was leaning against a wall - cause I was doing nothing I could feel vibrating my whole body felt like it was vibrating - to look at none of me was shaking but inside my body was shaking every part of me it felt like. The of course I started to feel unwell because I started to worry about it - sick in the stomach and then then a bit dizzy etc.

I think that it was cause I focused on it to much. Anyone else get this?

I have shakiness on the inside to. I do not know how to control it. I am on lexapro and cymbalta. I just feel like my nerves are shot all the time. I look at my hands sometimes they shake when I look at them and sometimes they feel like they are but they aren't. Here lately I have been shaking an extreme amount in my upper body, and I feel like my heart is going to jump out of my chest. I wish there was something I could do to help this. Any ideas? :?

I just try and ignore it and get on with what ever I am doing. The best way to discribe mine is - you know when you have done heaps of weights of exercise running etc and you stop but it is like your body still wants to keep going and you get the shaking feeling.... Thats how mine is anyway. I will get passed it though I have no doubt because when I deal with other things at first theyscare me but once I learn to except them they go away

Ya, I get that. I will be sitting there and feel as if someone is shaking my seat...or something. but I will look and no one is touching me. I really worry about it...but I think I will get used to it. It is amazing what stress can affect in your body-especially when you start to dwell on it, makes it even worse (chest pain, tmj, shaking).

Any of you guys had this go away?

Hi, Last night when I went to bed, my whole body started to shake and I just couldn't stop it, I had goosebumps, but did not feel cold, so threw extra clothes over me in bed, then I began to sweat. My shaking lasted for over 45 minutes, and I had the worse ever headache for the whole night plus felt very sick, and had to force myself to be sick, cause I just couldn't lie down. Feel very weak and sick today because of this. I had the shaking thing once before, but never got sick and headached with it. Can anybody please help, as I am very worried. I am 35, and have a healthy enough lifestyle.

Had very similar symptoms (to some of you) for about a year - my body felt like it was shaking when it wasn't. This started with some family troubles and a lot of stress. At first I only felt the shaking in my foot when I went to bed, then over months it spread to my whole body. Couldn't sleep night after night because of it. It was so powerful that I couldn't believe it was from stress but finally after some antidepressants it went away. Still comes back every now and then but it's mild. If you think stress could be causing your shaking, it probably is. Stress at that level can cause physical damage to your neurons. Try counseling for the stress and if that's not enough try antidepressants. This is a real health problem, don't ignore it. If you're concerned about taking drugs, antidepressants can be adjusted to very low levels and still be effective. Good luck to all of you.

Hi all.

I've been experienced percieved internal shaking. Nothing visable as well. And mostly at night or when I'm anxious.

Things I've noticed. When I'm anxious I'm EXTREMELY AWARE.

This means that when I awaken anxious and roll over half asleep the bed may move naturally or spring natural. To me this sometimes feels like I am shaking inside.

I noticed it first when I was sitting on the couch. I've been twitching a bit do to anxiety/tension.

Anyways I'm sitting on the couch and feel like the couch moved. I thought I had some internal tremors immediately. However, I noticed it was my dog just on the other side of the couch moving around.

I noticed the same feeling with my GF sitting on the couch.

Anyways tell your psych about it. But most likely its ultra awareness.

lately my health anxiety has caused me to:

See, hear, feel, and smell with heightened awareness. Kinda sucks but its a natural byproduct of anxiety

I asked this same question a few weeks ago and barely got an answer but..... YES!! I have this it's worse right after I wake up! Even when it's just a quick nap! I hate it! It has often triggered my anxiety, that or my anxiety has triggered it IDK. It's like I'm never allowed to relax, even when I sleep. Ya know we're some sad messed up people here. {{SIGH}} This sux! I hate to be this way:(

I am the same way i am taking prozac maybe that is what is causing it in me. I also of coarse look up symptoms on the internet and that dosent help at all . I dont know I am tiref of worrying something is seriously wrong

this happened 2 me yesterday
i was about to go in for surgery and i couldnot stop shaking

I have this same problem. When i get even the slightest bit anxious, i feel as though im swaying inside.

sum ppl unconciously express there anxiety externally, example: shaking their leg, biting their nails or even cracking their nuckles. i knw i dnt generally do any of these actions. therefore my body probably uses this internal swaying motion as a mechanism to cope with my anxiety.

i hate this feeling! ive had it for about 7 months now. and i knw, meds wont help! ive tried anti-depressants and even medication used to stop tht swaying feeling (usually given to ppl who travel by sea)

wt do i do........

Hi everyone, i am a complementary healer and see lots of people with this kind of problem. Stress is indeed a factor in this, as it is with all my clients that report this. I use crystals to heal as well as hands on techniques and most of my clients report that after two or three sessions, they no longer suffer it. My advice is find a healer who practises natural methods such as this as they will find the cause of the stress and anxiety and take you through a process of healing for it. Good luck and try to remember that while you are experiencing this, you are getting more stressed by noticing it, thinking that something is wrong. Concentrate on slowing your breathing and take your mind off somewhere pleasant, such as imagining you are on a sunny beach or having a picnic etc and the symptoms should subside.

I wake up sometimes shaking. Other times it's after I have had my coffee in the morning and then I get flushed in the face and I feel tired and worn out suddenly. I eat my breakfast and it's still there. This starts depending on the stress with my 2 year old daughter. I'm a single mother and the stress is there. She is a highly overactive child that is constantly on the move and into everything. Some days are better than others. I am also a full time college student and I have a full time Ebay business that can become stressful from time to time. One person said that it was like exerciseing and then stopping and you feel like your body continues to move. I feel sort of like that. I know that I joined a gym, and anxiety is a large part of this to. I had to decide if all of these feelings were in my mind or if I was really feeling them. I also thought that I had diabetes or something related to it because I would eat a bit of M&M's or something and the shaking on the inside will subside. I don't know if this can help any of you but it does help me! I still have the flushing and the heat in the face a lot of the times. I try to ignore them but it's hard because what I am feeling is very REAL! I have had anxiety attacks that were so brutal they would sometimes cause me to loose my bladder and even my bowels in public. I was so terrified to leave the house! Ask yourself, when you feel the shaking on the inside:

Am I tense in the shoulders as well?
Do I feel sick on the stomach?
Am I flushed in the face or warm in the face?
Do I feel like I could die or am I thinking that I MIGHT die?
Are you scared to leave the house while your feeling this way?
You feel like laying down because you are suddely fatiqued?

All of these questions pertain to stress and depression/anxiety. I had to ask myself these questions to determine that what I was feeling was depression. Remember the commercial that says depression hurts? It really does! It makes you feel aweful, lazy, sleepy and can cause pain throughout your body(which includes headaches). Eating a healthy diet and exercising a bit everyday has helped me to relieve all of these symptoms easily and without drugs! When my insides start to shake, I have a few M&M's... okay here's why. I have convinced myself that the M&M's will make me feel better. When a person is depressed, your mind needs something else to do, convincing your mind that you have an immediate cure helps. Thus, the M&M's work on the shaking all of the time! ( I know this sounds crazy and trust me I'm not crazy) Over the many years that I have battled this, this is what works!
I hope this long post helps all of you or at least gives someone of you a bit of hope. If you just need to talk about it on a more personal level any of you can always email me.

Light and love to you all and remember, you can ease the symptoms

Well i have to say i shake basically every single day!! and what i found out! is that is acctually good all this shaking is all the acumulated fears you have since you were born!! so you can imagine its a lot so when the body shakes it just trying to adjust itself its shaking the fear away!! so dont be afraid to shake just accept it and dont do nothing just let it go i do think its worst when you dont let yourself shake the fear away and you just hold and resist inside instead thats makes it all worse and acctually reinforce the fears you already have!! so just let the shaking be it may not go away today or tomorrow is not to us to know when its going to leave complete but just have faith god is with us!! that shaking is a tool from god to shake away all your fears from the root!!! at the beggining i was afraid to shake.. cause it never happened before but now i came to realise that before ill be well and ready i literally have to shake the past and you will suffer a little in the way! but i guess there is not gaining without suffering a little.

i have the same thing every day, in the morning and some times when i get really anxious and no matter how many blankets i put on im shaking inside, its really just in side me i cant see me shaking ... well some times i do but that's just sometimes. It drives me nuts too.

i have this to when ever i sit down or stop moving i shake and vibrate inside its so horrible am a big worrier at the best of times i have had a very worrying years could this be anything to do with it ? and it never stops just to give me a break i have had it a week no doc s say they cant do anything what can i do?

Hi guys, the aloe vera juice helps relieve stress. I take it everyday mainly for skin, hair and joints but I know quite a few people that have said it's great for helping with stress. It takes a couple weeks to kick in but the benefits are great! Hope it helps!

I have the vibrating myself for the last year (it feels like a dryer.) It is very difficult to sleep and because of that I feel ill the next day. You may want to try a holistic approach such as acupunture, massage, and natural sleep remedies you can find in any health food store.

I also have a similar problem. I have a very stressful life at times. It's been almost three months now, I feel shaky inside in my shoulders or arms or hands or all three every day, well now it's almost every day, but I do get some days off and so I feel like maybe it's slowly getting better.

I have come to learn or become a bit of a paranoid individual, not too bad. I often have a hard time relaxing, my wife is always wanting me to switch on a super husband mode of cleaning and doing stuff and when I try to do something I enjoy she just gets mad, "I should be cleaning or something".

I get especially worried when it comes to health matters. This started about 5 years ago when I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder in my inner ear. This has not really resulted in any problems and despite the original prognosis that I am going to go deaf I have had no noticeable hearing loss. Then I got a really bad strep infection that kept coming back, this was two years ago. This caused joint pain, and numbness and tingling. I finally got my tonsils removed in December and now most of those symptoms have gone away. During the time I was so worried I might have another auto immune issue such as RA or Lupus or MS or something. I still worry about MS, but I have had two MRIs, both were pretty normal and am having no other MS symptoms, except occasional twitching (when I am anxious) and tingling.

My doctor assures me that my latest internal shaky feeling is most likely anxiety. I have been on Lexapro 10 MG per day and that has not helped with the shaky feeling but it has reduced my heightened illness concerns. I think she wants me to try 20MG per day but I don't like how it makes you feel sometimes like not wanting to engage in daily activities, especially important with a demanding wife like mine. I do think overall the benefits of Lexapro greatly outweigh the side effects though.

Anyway, most days when I get the feeling I try to ignore it, I am just grateful that my other symptoms have mostly gone away. The symptoms seem to last from a few minutes to a few hours. Nothing in particular seems to help, but does sometimes seem worse when I am anxious. Although this is not always consistent, sometimes I can have no anxiety and the symptoms and sometimes a ton of anxiety and no symptoms - so confusing.

Anyway, I wish each of you well.
