Does anyone experiance the shaking of hands or other twitches when you are nervous, especially in a social setting? I have anxiety and part of it is possibly social anxiety disorder. I have been working to correct it the best I can ever sense I was a teenager and I have been able to conquor about 50% of the problems caused by it just by simply forcing myself to do the things which made me nervous like going to the store alone etc. Now I can do things like this without feeling nervous at all. However one problem remains...when I go to parties and such, especially with lots of people I dont know, then my hands begin to shake and the only way I can stop it is having a stiff drink! Its especially odd because I may not feel the nervousness at all but I sure dure notice my hands shaking because I have to try and hide it or people will see and being nervous about people noticing only makes it worse! When it is at its very worse then my head will twitch when Im trying to listen to what somebody is saying. This is so bazzar and I dont want to have to have to deal with it!!! Im take klonapin for anxiety which have pretty much gotten rid of the anxiety attacks and panic attacks I used to get yet this still remains. Does anyone have suggestions?

"4 The ropes of death entangled me;
floods of destruction swept over me.
5 The grave wrapped its ropes around me;
death laid a trap in my path.
6 But in my distress I cried out to the Lord;
yes, I prayed to my God for help.
He heard me from his sanctuary;
my cry to him reached his ears."
