Hi J,
Tremor is a symptom of neuroleptic-induced parkinsonism - an extrapyramidal side effect. I'd strongly recommend reducing the dose. 10mg is probably much too high, unless you're being treated for psychotic disorder.
I wondered why you were taking Zyprexa? I thought you were being treated for social phobia. Antipsychotics are not a first-line treatment for social phobia. More appropriate treatments are generally available, such as Nardil.
Kind regards
