Shaking all the time.

Hi, I've wrote before about this, but I don't know what to do with myself.

I have suffered with my nerves for my whole life and have been on antidepressants since I was 27. I'm now 44. Recently I went back to doctors and she put me on an extra 20mg of clomipramine.

I just can't stop shaking. I feel so agitated and it's like my nerves are all moving about in my back and making me feel like I'm going to go into a fit. My hands and arms are shaky and legs. It's not because she put my tablets up because I had it before then. I sleep ok and am glad to go to bed to block it out. I feel like it is making me breathe different, and I feel a little bit sick sometimes. I have my period, which is very light as I had the coil put in 5 years ago. Don't know whether to think it's maybe hormones making me feel bad or anxiety. As I haven't felt so bad before, I don't know what to think.

I am meant to go away soon, but I am scared. I feel like I want something to lay my nerves down flat like an iron as they're all standing up on edge.

I work part time and am a single mum. I don't feel like going.

I lost my best friend last year, my mum, and that has broken my heart. I know I'll never be the same without her.

Hope your not bored with reading this, as I know it's a bit long.

Hope someone out there can help me.

Thanks for reading.

I feel really lightheaded all day everyday, feel so shaky and like my legs have no strength. Scared I'm going to collapse. Feel tight band around my head and a noise in my ears, not ringing, but like wind blowing. So fed up feeling like this. Feel scared. Don't know whether I should put my tablets up or not? I'm on 60mg of clomipramine. Just want to lie down. Please help me.
