Twitch in my Eye ..... UGH!!!

My left eye has been twitching for about a week now  and it is driving me UP THE FREAKIN' WALL! It was almost constant for the first few days but now it has become relatively sporadic. Still, I'm ready to poke out my own eye. Any clue why this is happening? A lot of people have told me it happens to them when they are tired or stressed out ... I don't really think that's why it's happening to me, but what other reason could there be?

OMG!!!  I get that too.. also only in my left eye!  It's sooo frustrating!!!  I usually only get it when I'm stressed out.

Sometimes I won't even realize I'm super stressed out until the eye starts a twitchin... then I tell myself to breathe!

That's all I got for ya,  but I sooo know the feeling!

Take care,

Have you guys ever had it for a WEEK, though? It's driving me up the walls! This does not help my irrational fear that I have a brain tumor (there's a family history, so now I freak out a little every time I get a headache). But seriously, it is ANNOYING AS HELL more than it is worrisome.

Oh yes, there have been times it's gone on even longer than a week!  And yes, it IS annoying as h e l l!!!!!!!!

 My eye also does that, but it IS only if I am stressed out. It is also my left eye, so this is funny all three of us have the same eye twitch! LOL

the twitching has nothing to do with your eye, it's the muscle under your eye that's twitching and that happens due to stress.  You might not realize how stressed you are but your body feels it. 
If it's that consistent as you say, it can be treated with botox and it will go away, but it's usually a sign of stress. 

I used to get it all the time also, it's stopped now, I asked my doctor and he told me the same thing, it seemed odd to me because I didn't feel stressed so I went online and did all kinds of research and the information I found was the same my doc had given me, so I had no choice but to believe him.

Good luck to you,

mine does that when I am due for my B12 shot.

I get that too and it has last as long as a week before.. I usually take a break from the computer when that happens...

It's also in my left eye..lol! TamiN

Okay, now I'm wondering if anyone gets it in their right eye! I am *still* having mine ... Over a week now! Not constant anymore, but nonetheless annoying as hell!
