Dear Frenchie, I don't think you have Parkinsons - just an essential [no cause] or anxiety/anger tremor. Sounds like you do not let out your anger at your wife so that it builds and builds. You're right, antidepressants and other medication cannot combat the situations that aggravate us so and cannot work completely on their own, unless our living situation is ideal. Would wife be agreeable to counseling, or does she simply think she is right all the time. I think you would benefit from learning assertiveness before you become aggressive toward yourself or others. Either would cause you mounds of trouble - even more than you have now. Can you say, "Wife/name when you. . . . .I feel . . .because . . . ."? This is the least likely to elicit an argumentative response. And I agree, if you are about to lose it, it might be good to leave the house for awhile. Does your wife even know that her actions are causing you to feel this way? billieJ
