Patient question
I have been experiencing shaking/tremors in social situations for the past several years. Whenever I visit someone’s house or interact with people outside my comfort zone, my hands start trembling and my lips also begin vibrating or shaking. These symptoms start almost immediately after entering the situation and make me feel very uncomfortable and self-conscious. I have tried breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, diet changes, vitamins, and anxiety-control methods for around five months, but I have not noticed significant improvement. The symptoms mainly occur in social situations and are affecting my confidence and daily life. I would like to know whether this could be related to anxiety, social anxiety, or another medical condition, and what treatment or medication options may help.
