I woke up in the middle of the night last night, and just couldnt stop shaking. my legs, my hands, my arms, pretty much everything. Is this a normal symptom of an anxiety attack, or is it something abnormal.

could be anxiety or several other things including low blood sugar, tell doc about it, might have been a nocturnal panic attack

i dont think it was a low blood sugar issue. after i calmed down a bit i started to feel a little better. throughout the day today though i was still kindy shaky, not really visibly though, just kinda felt like it. i think it may just be because im still kinda tired since i didnt sleep well last night. any ideas?

Are you taking any kind of medication that you might have missed taking last night?

I have tremors 24/7 that I hate (essential tremors).

Besides the ET, the only time I had a really bad tremor in the middle of the night was when I forgot to take my effexor.

But like right now....i'm shaky all over, inside and out.

Hi ya,
I just thought i'd add that I shake with anxiety, really bad like a giant vibrator, I feel shaky for a time after almost exactly as you desribe, it is worth mentioning to your dr so everything else can be ruled out.
I was at the dentist shakin away, i cant hide it so i dont worry about it!
Good luck, hope things get better for you ;)

thanks for the replies. i havent had too much problem with the uncontrolled shakiness since, but since then ive started to get to points where i feel very hot. usually in my back/neck, and then upper legs. i dont have a fever and i dont technically feel hot on the outside, but anytime i lay down or sit down the seat/bed feels warm after i get up. i think this might just be another thing to do with anxiety though. anyone have this problem too?

hot flushes yep, that too, even sweat, if i wasnt 25 i think i was going thru the change!!! :D
HAve you been to your dr with your symptoms and had checks to make sure it is just anxiety?

yea, i went a few months ago, and he said it was just anxiety. i just never had the symptoms quite so badly. they seem to be subsiding a little bit though, which is good.

The less you worry the better you feel ;)
