Functional tremors: Anyone had this?

I am still unsure what sort of tremors I have, but by the description here, I don't believe I fall into that category. My dad had, I believe, 'essential' tremor in his left hand. Never did find a cause.

The worst about mine is I tap the trackpad unintentionally, and often without even knowing.

Mine are also not 'vibration' so much as jerks.
.
Hope WE can find relief!

If you look into more recent research, the FND causes have changed. They have found that triggers can be physical and emotional. Just an FYI. Look into research by Dr. Stone and also FND Hope studies.
Best of luck to you!
