If I’m around a bunch of new people, and I am talking to many of them, I get nervous and I tend to smile too much, or nod my head in agreement too much. Basically I just look like a really goofy bastard lol. I have to learn how to calm down around a lot of people.

I don’t think so. I probably do and am unaware of it. I used to scratch my neck without realizing it, but I don’t think I do it much anymore.

If I drink too much caffeine days in a row a get a twitch by my eye, but that is not what you are talking about, right?

My fingers shake. When I’m in a stressful situation, they shake more.

It makes me angry because before I had to take the meds I now take, I didn’t have this problem. But now, because of the fucking shit in my head, every time my fingers start shaking, I am reminded that I will have to take these meds for the rest of my life if I don’t want to start acting crazy again.

No but I had a bone spur in my right shoulder that make my arm twitch and shoot forward unpredictably. Since I was working on high voltage radar circuits, the twitch became life threatening. The Navy fixed it. I ended up with 6 weeks taped up and 6 weeks rehabilitation but it was much better than dead.

I don’t, but my friend’s head twitches a lot. It’s kinda funny to watch, especially when he gets a big one :P It’s not really a nervous twitch with him, it’s almost semi-conscious. He says he feels like a stiff build-up in his neck, like fluid, that compulsively causes him to twitch. He does it maybe once every 10–20 seconds on average.

I’m pretty sure I have several, but I’m not enough aware of them to be affected, except I have a compulsion to talk at lot. I try to avoid it as much as possible.

When I’m really stressed, sometimes I get the twitchies in my eyes.

Not that I’m aware of. I will smoke more when I’m stressed or nervous and I’m somewhere I can smoke.
