Shaking/Tremors in my head for many years

Hi to all, I am a 30 year old male and I have been having this problem for many years now. I have some sort of shaking/vibration in my head and I am not sure where exactly it comes from. It severely affects my concentration and I have been unable to hold down a job. Sometimes it results in a crippling headache, other times I feel nauseous. I have tried to do some face exercises like clenching my jaw tightly and shaking my head but it wouldn't relieve the shaking.

Due to the shaking/vibration i my head, I find it very hard to focus and do even some simple tasks. I ever had a CT scan done many years ago but it showed nothing. Basically I just feel like I will just have to live with this all my life. The problem becomes more servere when I am subject to stress. I am really at a lost as to how I can find a way to allievate this incessant shaking in my head. I can't concentrate on doing something for any long period of time. I also have a history of depression/OCD but I don't think it is the cause of this shaking. I almost feel like there is something shaking/shivering in my head and I am sure its not psychological. Many people tell me it is but after suffering for 10 years, I am sure its not. I am a very light smoker and these few days when I try to stop smoking completely, the shaking comes back.

I sometimes feel so alone, and I know not many people understand what I am going through because I look normal on the outside. I also have problems doing some simple tasks at times like having enough focus to hold up a bowl of hot soup and place it properly on the table... It feels like there is this cloud over my brain that disturbs my focus...

The shaking/tremors stops when I sleep, lie down, or rest my head on something... I am not sure why this is so and I hope it may present a clue on my condition.... When my head rests against something, I seem fine and my brain seems to work....

Please share any ideas or suggestions that you may have. Take care.

You need to do the pranayam (breathing techniques)I suggested on June 23rd, 2009.
That is the way to build up your immune system and energize the cells with extra oxygen.  This is something you do yourself and feel good by doing the pranayam. In turn you can help others.  When the extra oxygen goes into the brain, you will notice the difference.Start the pranayam today and come back to report your progress.

Hello Alee
I too have a shaking and seems to be more in the third eye area and feels like it is my vision. I am photosensative and my eyes hurt and feel funny when it happens but happens in the middle of the night and upon waking only. It started as a small movement upon waking but before that I had pain in my right eye that was horrible. Went to all the specialists and had CT scan and MRI of brain nothing found. My neck is bad now so I wonder about pinched nerve. However I have high levels of mercury which test results confirmed from a chelation challenge test. Test results came back from states as I live in Canada. Mercury binds to nerves but also effects eyes so not sure about your situation. Look up th Marshall Protocol ...many people that have lime disease or a pathogen have had great results. Ask Dr about parasites and how to test for them in brain. Resonant light machine first used on animals to kill parasites is now being used on humans. I know how you feel mine comes and goes and is more in the forehead and eye area. Let me know what results you may have that are working for you. I hope this will soon be resolved for you. I am starting chelation for mercury removal soon and i am getting the rest of my amalgam filling removed safely by an oral surgeon who is trained in safe mercury removal. All my best to you.

Just an update on my condition... I am currently taking 0.5mg clonazepam, as well as nootrophil and neurontin......

Hope that this combination may work fine.... Shaking is still unbearable at times but I try to cope....
