What Causes Shivering Of Hands And Legs?

Since when I can remember I know that whenever I put my self in mid of few people or when I have to address someone even on phone, I start feeling highly nervous and my hands,legs and even voice start shaking weirdly.I remember when I was in high school,I used to sing a song every week for 3 years continously. But I don't remember any time when I was not shaking.Many a time I consulted doctors but each time they start talking about self confidence.But It really doesn't help.Do you know what kind of fault is it with me? I have no addiction for tobacco or anyother thing..

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have social phobia. In that case, you need combination of treatment in form of antidepressant like paroxetine with low dose benzodiazepine. You can also try some relaxation exercise. Better to consult a psychiatrist and psychologist for complete treatment. With time, you would able to control anxiety in public place. If you need any help, you can ask me.

Thanks
