In reply to I get tremors, posted by Deneb on July 16, 2009, at 3:09:36
Prozac makes me shake like a leaf. A consistent high frequency tremor, which is, of course, most noticeable in my hands. I just can't will them to be still. Sometimes I feel it in my body too - it's a strange feeling.
I hold a fork, it shakes. Pencil, it shakes, sometimes my handwriting is even affected. Fine motor skills are affected because of the darn shaking. (You should see me trying to put jewelry on - it's hilarious!)
However, the benefit I receive from Prozac so far outweighs the the tremors, for me, it's worth it.
When people comment, and they do, I just tell them that I either have a natural tremor, or make a joke and say "Man, I need to lay off the crank" :)
