Hi

A certain woman wanted her husband to stop taking drugs. She said:

I kept begging until Sam tried. Tore my heart to see him all wormed over after a few days in withdrawal. But he could never hold it.

I understand he was shaking?
 
I would read 'wormed over' = 'in a very bad state' which may include shaking, but not necessarily.
