Nervous Person With Panick Disorder! Why Am I Twitching? Posted: 09-20-07 23:21pm
Hi, I am 16 old male, and I recently
noticed how at times I am twitching all
over my body. I am a very nervous person,
and I am quite sure I have panic
dissorder. However, lately I have been
randomly jerking different parts of my
body. I'm not really having muscle spasms,
just I might jerk my shoulder, or my hand,
or my leg or something realy fast.
Recently I have been dieting A LOT. Like
800 calories a day diet. I drink a ton a
water, and I recently stopped drinking
about 3 big glasses of green tea every
night. Please help!!

There are SOOO many different reasons you
could be twitching... First off, see a
doctor!! Rule out any kind of illness,
disorder either mental or physical. If
you're normally healthy it is most likely
the diet and possibly from weening off
caffiene. OR..you could just be growing!
If anything, see your doc to rule out
anything that could potentially be major.
Are they like a twitch, tic, jerking??
Again, there are ALOT of reasons this
could be happening. Also, refrain from
dieting!!! Just eat healthy. Make sure
your body is getting enough calories in a
day. If you're burning more calories than
you're taking in then that could be reason
enough. Your body may very well be
reacting to the diet.

It's just jerking, no muscle spasms or
anything.

This is just my opinion being a veteren of
this horrific disorder but, with those
symptoms, I would tell your physican if
you all ready have'nt. Could be somehting
other then what you think. I would get it
checked out.
