whichwayisup Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Has anyone ever had annoying eye twitches? Like the eye lid just spasms out for about 3 or 4 seconds then stops? Just has been happening on and off with me for 3 or 4 days now. Not sure what to think of it. I did a google search and it just said that it could be stress related, not enough sleep or just the eye reacting to a piece of dust/allergies etc. Thing is, it's kinda freakin' me out abit too. Not good for my anxiety and makes me ofcourse think of what else could really be going on there! Any thoughts or experiences on this one? I guess I should see the eye doctor in afew days if it doesn't get better. Link to post Share on other sites
tiki Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 I've talked to a doc about it. It can be one of a few causes...dehydration, looking at the computer too long, drowsiness or stress. Increase fluid intake, get some damn sleep, quit spending so much time on LoveShack looking at the computer and don't stress it. Link to post Share on other sites
Author whichwayisup Posted October 14, 2004 Author Share Posted October 14, 2004 LOL Thanks Tiki... I think not enough sleep is it...The weather changes and the fact it's getting darker earlier now a days is kinda screwing me up abit. Stress too...And yes, sitting here on the computer I'm sure doesn't help. I will drink more water, cuz my neighbour ALWAYS tells everyone, if you drink lots of water you will feel better and stay healthier. Link to post Share on other sites
moimeme Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Every now and then, one of my eyes'll do it for a few days. It goes away. Link to post Share on other sites

Papillon Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I've read somewhere that twitches sometimes occur when your brain rewires small parts of itself in response to normal cell death. Who knows. I also get these, sometimes, and they're usually associated with eyestrain. They go away after a good night's rest. Link to post Share on other sites

Adunaphel Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I get occasional eyes twitches too. (I hate them.) Link to post Share on other sites
dyermaker Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 No, it's just... I like a man who can make decisions, and stand up for what's right. A lesser man would have let 'twitches' remain singular, and toned the discussion back, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. *swoon* I'm going to bed. Link to post Share on other sites

Papillon Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Oh, yes, I forget...women are multitasking experts at rubbing their eyes and sticking themselves with tootpaste at the same time. Link to post Share on other sites
moimeme Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 There couldn't be that many more ways to get toothpaste in one's eye. Perhaps a 'food fight' with toothpaste tubes instead of catsup packets? Link to post Share on other sites
