    Stress causes the reactions we have sometimes I get twitching . It's a strange feeling. I take OTC meds to rest and listen to music. After a few minutes it dies seem to pass. 

    Might help you you too a small resting period and relax.

    It looks like your Anxiety is causing your problem, I do not know from your posts what if any medications you are taking. So all I can suggest is try taking Nurophen for a time, no more than 8 tbs daily, if not happy talk to your GP.

    Have you been sitting in a draft ? Just something else to consider, although Anxiety does form above an eye

    Magnesium worked for me too. When I was super anxious back in 2006, I had blepharospasms and they drove me nuts. Recognizing that they were caused by anxiety and taking Magnesium supplements really did the trick for me.
