It could be anxiety. People experience anxiety in different ways; some people get really jumpy/'hyper'. Some people have panic attacks or those symptoms(trouble breathing, panic-y feelings, etc) and some people get sweaty palms. You, obviously, get tingling in your palms.
You could try talking to someone or doing things to reduce stress. You could also try techniques to help you when you start to feel that you're becoming overcome with emotion.
Breathing exercises and meditation can be helpful. I'm also 15(almost 16) and I meditate on occasion because I've been having problems with stress and emotions. When I'm at school and get upset I go to the bathroom for a few minutes to just clear my head and breathe, which helps a lot when I'm feeling extremely stressed. You could try this too(heading off to a quiet place to relax before things get out of control.) You could also try doing something you like or listening to music to help calm down.

If this tingling is really bothering you or you think it has to do with a medical problem, don't be afraid to get professional help or at least tell a parent or school counselor. they're your friends. :D (sort of. lol.)
 
Im 15 too. I got pissed off at this one girl named Sabrina and man, my hands your tingling like yours but it only happens when im mad. If its other things they shake really bad. Dont worry about it. My friend said it was just our nerves or something.
