My body seems to enjoy tormenting me with physical reactions to stress. Over the past couple months it had added shaking to its little bag of tricks. Now a shiver, mind you, I shake like a Chihuahua in a New Years Parade.

For the most part I've been able to hide it. I work in a cube all day and that's when it usually hits. It can last hours. Lucky I'm I'm there alone so I can hide it with a baggy sweater and open a cabinet door wide enough to hide me from my colleagues. If someone pops their head in I cross my arms or tuck my hands between my knees which will hold them still.

Yesterday I found myself doing the chihuahua shake while out with a friend. It was really quiet embarrassing. Luckily this is a friend who knows of my struggles so minimal explaining was involved.

Is it just me? Any tricks on stopping it?
