Scared
This is my first journal entry. I am freaking out. I have been experiencing anxiety for a couple of days. It started a week ago. I noticed that my eyes seemed to be jerking or twitching a couple of times a day. It seems to get worse when I am tired. Today it has been worse happening more often and feeling as though they might be crossing. All research I have done on the internet has not been helpful. It ranges from an eye problem to a brain tumor. And I tend to be pessimestic so my mind goes straight to brain tumor. I have fibromyalgia but i have never heard of eye twiching as part of it. I have a doctors appointment on tuesday and I am trying to make it until then but my anxiety is up and I want to go to er or urgent care. But we have no health insurance and that would cost a lot of money. I am scared I have two little boys and a loving husband and I want to be their for them.

When i\'m going through a stressful time or i\'m very tired i get the eye twitching as well....i\'ve suffered with it on and off for the last 18 yrs ...i know how you can worry but i\'m sure its more to your stress and or tiredness ...have you ever tried chamomile tea...its doesnt taste very nice but does help to relax and calm you ..my daughter who suffers with post-natel depression swears by it ...also if you aren\'t on any anti-depression tablets then St.Johns Wort is suppossed to be very good .....i hope you dont mind me adding these comments and i do hope you feel much better soon !!!.....love and hugs Ellie
