Wherever you have muscles they can twitch whe. They are tired they twitch even more. As I just typed this a muscle on my head twitched.

As wherever I am anxious my neck muscles are the first that take the toll, I really sympathize with you. I know the drill-they become stiff, start cramping, you can't turn your head without screaming in pain, then it starts affecting your face and you experience a variety of very scary and unpleasant symptoms like aching, pressure, pins and needles and so on. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.

What I recommend-get a new pillow, I don't know the label but there are some that are specifically designed with people with neck muscle&spine problems and they are not very expensive either. And of course-find anxiety :)

Hi thats helpful re the pillow ive not heard of those...however i have no pain atall its just when i tense the mustles in my chin they start twitching & convulsing ...really badly as soon as i stop straining muscles it stops. I have had other twitches allover sometimes more intense than others....but gernerally just there.
