Yes I have weakness and shaking in my legs especially with prolonged standing activities, I usually feel much better sitting. I always panic because I feel like I am going to pass out. Are u actually weak? You can test by pushing on muscles. I am not actually weak but feel weak and shaky with standing. I just started celexa, I hope it will help.

Yep. Happens to me all the time. According to the Dare book, it's because of the adrenaline. Think of the saying, "he went weak in the knees". It's similar to that.
