I'm not a doctor but I think it's fair to say that a lot of us experience twitches due to anxiety.

I'm just curious to know where everybody gets them/has gotten them and what sort of twitch it was.

Currently, I get twitches right underneath my chin. I call the area your 'chin belly'. It's a 'bubbling' rather than an actual make-your-muscle-move twitch.

I've had them all over but I think that's the weirdest location I've experience so far.

Everybody else?

The left calf of doom! And anywhere else I focus on obsessively :)

Everywhere!

Constantly? Curious to know if peoples are bubbling like mine or limb shaking twitches or both?!

Not constantly and not everywhere at the same time.

I am not experiencing many at the moment but have just had a few weeks of lower leg twitching, it is usually only apparent when at rest.

You have muscle there, that's why. Do you know that worryingly focusing on them will make you have more? They probably have been occurring for years but you only recently fixated on them.

I'm talking right on the top at the back, where your hair crown is. Not near my neck. What muscles are there? Can't see what benefit they would have.

They go beyond the hairline in the front and just above your ears in the back. Place your fingers on the crown of your head and move your eyebrows up-and-down. Feel that? That's yor skin pulling from the muscles in your face. Same can happen from a twitch in the muscles in the back of your head.

Twitch from head to toe, tongue included. Hopefully your ALS phobia has improved.

Thanks Josh. It has improved ever so slightly, I stopped caring if it happens. It still occupies a small bit of my mind, I must admit. But, just getting on with it I guess :blush:

I have twitches everywhere all the time.

You'll learn to get over them.
