Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your condition, you are suffering from chronic depression with tremors. Chronic depression can be treated well with Setraline which you are already using and for tremors it's better you opt for beta blockers under supervision of your doctor(only if you are non asthamatic). If you still feel problematic even after taking beta block then consultant Neurologist and take is valuable suggestion regarding the origin of tremors even anticholinergics might help you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
