In reply to Help ME- whats wrong with me????, posted by smittay17 on December 14, 2003, at 12:51:03
Hello,
It sounds to me that you are having withdrawals from the imipramine. Maybe you are going off of it too fast. Go back to the previous dosage before you started getting the shakey jittery feeling. That is my layman's point of view.
