Eye twitching

[sizeon]

ive been getting eye twitching for a couple years now, i use to think it was from smokin weed, ive stopped smokin now, i did some search and its from stress, ive been lifting on the daily and can start to point that the lifting has maybe lead to this eye twitching? have any of you fellows had this prob? i get em on the daily, not to bad but can sometimes get annoying, i know some people get em all day long

I get this a lot when I get overly stressed.
They will stick around for a few days, up to a week sometimes, and then they will go away for sometimes months at a time.

Only happens when I am really on edge about things, and sometimes I won't even realize I am on edge about any of it until the eye starts twitching. lol

Never got it from just the stresses of training though.....

I agree that its psychological stress. Stress at work used to do that to me. Not much you can do about it except try to remove the source of stress from your life or find better ways to deal with it.

I used to get the eye twich all the time . I once read that too much caffein can cause eye twiching which made sence considering I was taking in about 600mg per day . Just a thought .Also as everyone else has stated , stress is usualy the main culprit !

I got it for a while about a month ago it stopped. It was really bad. I didn't know it was from stress but I was ridiculously stressed at the time.

Stress and caffeine caused a 4 month twitch. Cut out caffeine and found inner peace and now I am fine.

great thread! i actually had it alllllll last week... was wondering why. it was like a muscle twitch, but on my lower eye lid.

i am in the prosess of starting a business, and im not working right now since its winter, so maybe it is stress?

very possible that you have a magnesium deficiency (which often happens in stressful conditions as you have noticed)

I had eye twitches a few years ago because of job related stress but I haven't had them since.

clen gives me eye twitches

It happens to me when I have too much caffeine. Sometimes I can't sleep and my eyes will twitch when the eyelids are closed. Annoying.

not so much of an eye twitch....rather than sphincter twitching

Bingo! My eye was twitching for months and also started to get a bizzarre twitch in my neck. Figured out it was from a pre workout supplement that was loaded with caffein. Stopped taking the supplement and the twitching was gone within a few days.

I had the same problem for weeks until I went to my chiro. It turned out my C-1 (1st cervical bone right under the base of skull) was out and putting pressure on some nerves that run into the face. No problems since.
