This is an interesting read this a.m. because I never knew about a functional tremor, but an article I just now read told the difference between what my doctor calls mine, and ET (Essential tremor). I think it sounds more like the FT for one reason anyway, because I don't shake when I'm napping or sleeping at night, in a total state of relaxing my brain so to speak.

Thank you both for your replies @bonnieechismaar and your reply @annierae ! I'll be doing some online research today, and see what else I can find on it. The tremor has always gotten crazy worse when I get upset, or if I had to take an important test in a class, I literally could not sign my name, or write anything. My head shakes side to side, and my left hand is the worst but right hand gets shakey as well. I have to some time drink with a straw so I don't soak myself, and won't eat in public at all.
