Difficulties changing from a folding bike to a full sized MTB - why?

I presently ride a Dahon folding bike. Today I tried to ride a mountain bike, and it felt unstable. I felt unsure of myself so I only rode for a moment because I felt uncomfortable.

It was very heavy to ride, and required a lot of strength vs my folding bike.

It was difficult to start off, and felt shaky.

Will I get used to it? What can I do to get comfortable on this bike?
