[os...] Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I'll explain. A guy went to the hospital and complained of the shakes, the Dr apparently looked at him straight and said "You are not shaking"... What's THAT all about? I get inner vibrations in my legs and yes, I see visible muscle twitches but do we actually visibly shake? I have had tremors going to sleep but not sure if it was internal or not... I never turned a light on to see if I was shaking visibly... it passed in seconds anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear I can feel every atom in my body vibrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Be...] Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I do both... I think I know what you're talking about, I feel it when something I see moves, like doors, or the TV, or walking past certain patterns on the walls, or a checkered floor, etc.. its a visual thing, but then it turns internal and I feel off balance and shakey, but its like its inside, or in my mind, or eyes.... of course, I do the shakey hands and legs and heart a lot too, but you can actually see that... Im glad you said something, I never seen anyone else mention it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[fr...] Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I'm presently withdrawing from a relatively low dose of clonazapam. My worst symptom is atakhisia, but I also get "the shakes", particularly in my hands. And they are real - if I hold my IPhone so I can see the reflection of a light, I can see the shaking in the reflection. I've found that the amount of shaking correlates fairly closely to my subjective feeling of atakhisia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[je...] Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 My lower legs would get a pulsing vibration at 3 second intervals. I couldn't feel it to the touch nor could I see it. About 12 years ago in the height of my interdose w/d on Ativan it felt like the earth was vibrating under my feet. I also had twitches everywhere & the DR's thought I had MS. Dumb asses.
