hey guys lately ive been noticing sometimes i have these random uncontrollable facial muscle movements. They are very subtle and last less than half a second as in the few people ive asked have not noticed them. As time goes on (last 5 months) they are getting worse. I feel that after watching flash play and being so inspired to try hard in whatever i do (after reading flashes interviews etc) my brain is trying to subconsciously, slowly. copy everything he does, including his facial twitches. Is this possible? I've never encountered anything like this before..

unfortunately my skill is not increasing in a proportionate amount yet ^_^

help ?_?

oops rofl meant spasms not spams XD

They could be a product of stress or anxiety

i think almost everyone gets some sort of twitch, usually something like the eyelid

what do you mean by getting worse? are they lasting longer, occuring more frequently, becoming painful?

If it's eyelid twitches then it happens to me and people I know when they are sleep deprived and have been staring at one spot for too long.

it happens to me too, im pretty sure everyone gets them

just make sure you are sleeping well, eating well and exercising well and give it a month. if you are worried about it after the month, you can go to the doc's and get it checked but i dont think there's anything to be worried about

yeah its actually all over, sometimes eyelid area sometimes jaw area. But yeah I actually take pretty good care about my body, exercising 4 times a week, keeping a healthy diet, cleanse and moisturizing my skin, the occasional massage, and 8 hours of sleep a day. Theyve been getting more frequent but I think I'll just not worry about it for now, thanks for the responses. And Ill try taking more breaks from staring at the computer screen (sometimes when i close my eyes I see a white square where my screen is)

Maybe it has to do with the fact that you have played 1675 games on iccup this season.

thats just freakin insane lol. You weren't kidding when you said you are inspired to try hard in whatever you do.

This happens to me a lot.
I don't get much sleep.
But I get spasms in MANY muscles. Legs, arms, face, back, chest. It can get really annoying.
Oh no

Go for 2k for the season imo!

Whats the record on most games played in one season? And is that a shared account or something?
