Hi,
I have been suffering from this since 1990.
In 1990, I developed "Hand-trembling" each time, there were girls, eating together.( What I mean is, when I took a glass, it trembled)
In 1991, Even, now, with guys only, my hand trembled, each time I took a glass to drink.
In 1992, it worsened. Even my hands trembled when having meals with parents.
( This all are Hand trembling when I hold the glass to drink in front of people).
In 1993, I tried some meditation, by visualizing as I closed my eyes, I picked up a glass from the table, and thought all as if watching me.
( It stops trembling!! But it returned again whenever there are people.)
In 1994, I avoided all Dinner, going out with friends, not socialising, just eating meals alone.
Then parents brought me to Psychiatrist.
So Xanax 1mg were given.
It worked great!!
I just took half, put it under the tongue, then go for a meals with anyone.
There were no more hand trembling....
So I beeen on Xanax since 1994-2011..right now.
My concern is, many Psychiatrists are reluctant to give Xanax, instead they give antidepressants.
My Psychiatrist is old now.
I am very worried, as all new and young Psychiatrists do not want to prescribe xanax.
I just don't know.
( I tried antidepressants, most of them. didn't even help, but worsened).
I just don't know what to do if my psychiarist retires
