Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
For a period of time I had no anxiety but still had hand tremors.My doc put me on topomax and it helped but I had side effects and stopped taking it.
The seeing of my hands shaking seems to trigger the anxiety.
I can hardly write legibly anymore.My doc is saying it's essential tremors.
This is sad to say but my back pain meds are my temporary relief.
I am a Christian and the Lord has brought me a long way but I am tired of this world of pain,anxiety,tremors and depression battles!
The discussion groups are almost the same tree with branches.
Anyone had any success with defeating tremors at least?

I did the dumbest thing today. I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds. I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym. What a dummy!

Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job. It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it. Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown. There was a full length mirror in the changing room. I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like. It was a reality check.
Once I was able to experience the positive of the essential tremors, and it is one of those "what ifs" that adventure guide has posted, I was able to make the tremor work for me.
Put on dancing music, and stand up, shake around everywhere (I know, it's odd, however, it works) and let your tremors be your master for direction. I did this a few times, laughing when I realized what happened.
Rather than fearing the tremor, I now move in the direction, and it helps send the tremor down.
I hope this helps. You are not alone in this!
Sometimes, medicine works, sometimes, it's just the way I've been struggling through situations, and I tell myself that it's ok, the tremor is letting me know that I need to stop and eat and drink and relax.
