    i have a similar condition as my hands shake, i have a hyper thyroid and my metabolism is ultra fast thus i have a tremmor in my hands. the narcotics out there are extremely addictive and have a ridiculous amount of side effects that cause worse things to the body then the shaking itself.

    i had this condition since i was born and each year it gets noticibily worse.

    i hope i can still design and work continiously as i fear my condition will surly cause my career some serious damage.

    its sad to hear of other people who go thru the same or similar un-controlable body functions such as what i go thru on a daily basis.

    for me, i am ok with it, others see it as a weakness, or perceive me to be something that which i am not.

    makes me a stronger designer, since i have to constantly find new ways to figure the design process with my disability.

    most people in the design community have it made, with stable hands able to hold a ruler, or an XATCO blade, 2 things i personally can not do.

    im jealous of a lot but happy i can show who i am as an artist...

    thanks for listening!!!

    :)
