Default Shakiness

My social phobia wouldn't be so bad if my head and whole body didn't shake when people talked to me. Basically when a stranger talks to me I get nervous and shake then when I notice them notice the shaking I get embarassed and shake even more. I feel like when people see this they think I'm on drugs or screwed up in the head.

Hi and welcome to SPW.

I think your problem is SA not your shakiness.From what I see your shakiness is more like a result of your SA.So try working on that.

I have horrible shakes.

It's why I can't do up the buttons on a shirt. I do them up when not wearing, like I learnt to do years ago with cufflinks. Too cumbersome when wrist is in the cuff.

Interviews trigger the worst shakiness

Last night I had wine at a mate's house. I got worried about dropping the glass, or finding a place to put it down.

Hard dealing with metal coins, or sometimes even paper notes.

Looking forward to a weekend sailing a yacht!

Yeah for me it got to the point where whenever I see people I worry about shaking above anything else, even when sa doesn't come into it. The thought of me shaking makes me anxious and more likely to shake. Whenever I think about it, my body tenses and fights off the impulses in my muscles and nerves. I think it's a neurological disorder. I want to get referred to a neurologist but I am embarassed to see a gp about it because in the past the gp just didn't treat this problem by brushing it off. In actual fact this is my number one problem, above blushing, shaky hands, shaky voice, lack of small talk, sweating. Basically this is above sa..

By the way I do see people shake sometimes, and it's pretty obvious. It mostly occurs in old people due to medical problems. I have seen a middle aged woman do it once (well she might be in her 30s) but she had a calm smile on her face. She could've been either oblivious, careless, or she was putting on a brave face by smiling. When I see it in other people it never bothers me and I don't see other people kick up a fuss. They almost seem natural. I think if they also act nervous then it might look like they are a bit suspicious.

I experience the same. It's ruining my life. I stay in the house now...and rarely want to interact with people.
