I am having some strange symptoms and recently went to doctor for a twitching eye and he told me it is stress or anxiety. I am not convinced that that is all that is wrong with me as I have had a twitching left eyelid for 2 months now. When I first got the twitchy eyelid it was more constant and would twitch when I talked with people and then the right under eye skin started to twitch also, not at the same time as the other twitch but that seemed to twitch when I bent over. Anyway, I made the mistake of googling this and came up with a lot of awful diseases as well as anxiety, but I can't seem to get my mind off the awful part.
Now it seems I have a lot of other twitches all over and sometimes my face feels heavy, not sure how to describe it, but the right eye has stopped twitching but the left twitches whenever I touch the eyelashes or the shower water hits my eye, and generally my face doesn't feel right. Does anyone else think this is anxiety related? I have had panic attacks when I was younger but not until recently have I experienced these strange symptoms. I do have ulcerative colitis and maybe I am overanalyzing everything. I have talked to my husband about this symptoms, but I don't seem to get any help as he constantly says its anxiety. Also, my mom died of ALS about 10 years ago, and this constantly goes though my mind.
