Guys, my eyelid has been twitching for a week.

I'm about to go effing mad.

Super Angry + Crying

I like privacy. A lot.

  • Potassium deficiency?

  • I get that sometimes too!  According to the interwebz:  Stress, eye strain, fatigue and caffeine can all cause it.
    Always be yourself. Unless you suck.
  • Mine does this often when I'm stressed.  Do you think that is the culprit in your case?

    Hope it stops soon, I know how annoying it is.

  • Mine does this when I drink too much caffeine.
  • Mine does that when I have eye fatigue.
  • My husband had this for almost a month once. He even went to the doctor. Nothing helped until he started using his prescription allergy eye drops.

    Goodness, I thought a week was bad - I'd really go insane after a month!!

    You know, it might be eye strain, because now that I really think about it, it mostly happens at work.

    Are you looking at a computer screen all day?  I got glasses that I wear only at work when I'm on the computer and that helped a lot.  I was getting headaches AND eye twitches.  Now they are both gone.  :-)

    Yeah, I do. But I already wear contacts, so I'm not sure how glasses would help?

  • I had a twitch that lasted months. MONTHS. It was horrible and it was stress related.

    Hope your eye stops twitching soon.

     

  • Sorry to hear. Sad

    I had a severe case of blepharospasm, which didn't stop until I left my last job.

    An old wive's tale says that a chamomile tea bag on your eyelid can help.  It didn't help me, though.  LOL.

    Solution: Get a less stressful job!

    I'm not even stressed! At all!

    Like, this is the lowest stress job in the entire world.
