My eyelid has been twitching every 10 mins for the past 3 days. It’s getting quite annoying.

Besides punching my eyeball what else could I do?

Americans would do anything before going to a doctor.

Edit: are you from UK? Don’t you have universal Healthcare or something? Go to a doctor, that could be a symptom for something else.

Yes, but I prefer the ancient art of “pissing and moaning”. :) Oh and I don’t think any GPs doing appointments on Xmas/Boxing day.

For real go to a doctor. That could be a symptom for s neurological problem.

Tends to happen when it’s unaffordable to do so for anything non life threatening

I’m guessing the person who downvoted you wants a photo of my blackeye. 😂

On any stimulants?

I wish…no I don’t. I’m a former meth addict and haven’t done anything stronger than coffee in many moons. But even coffee doesn’t affect me.

Are you still drinking coffee? Congrats for getting off the meth btw.

Stress and lack of sleep will make your eye twitchy. Drink some chamomile tea and eat a chocolate cookie.

My eye isn’t twitching, but I’m still going to take your advice.

Try to get some rest? Take a good multivitamin? Either of these things seems considerably more reasonable than punching yourself in the eye
