How to handle Essential Tremors?

I have found out that I have Essential Tremors
( http://www.essentialtremor.org/information/faq.php ).
My hands and wrists shake whenever they are not completely at rest.
It is what Katharine Hepburn had.

So far I have adjusted to the problems with my career, (illustrator graphic designer animator) and my kids complaining I don’t cut their cantaloupe as straight as mommy.

What are your suggestions for social and professional situations. When I am out it is VERY obvious my hands shake. It looks like I am a terrified nervous coked up rabbit on a caffeine high. There is no way not to notice it. Especially in a meeting when I am gesturing at a computer screen, drawing or board. I have already had it brought to my attention by a previous employer before I was diagnosed. At times I have used humor, but that is not always appropriate. I don’t want people thinking I am on drugs or nervous.

Thanks for the help all.
