It could cause enough repulsive force to make them feel lighter. They could keep their strength but objects could be so big that they couldn't manipulate them.
Another thing that could happen is having the mass and energy shunted into another dimension. They would lose the mass and energy but it would be safely directed some place safe. Maybe this could even allow them to think normally if the mass of the brain in the alternate dimension is still connected to brain in the body. Then they could be both lighter and weaker.

Do you mean sort of like a magnet that is getting stronger and stronger the more compact it gets?
The best reason I can think of for why it would be incredibly hard for a shrunken person is basic leverage. The angles and the size of their arms is too greatly diminished to make anything as easy as when normal size and maybe even downright impossible?
