Author Help: I'm twitching like crazy, and I'm starting to think of
H.Z.

I suffer from facial twitches, and I don't know why. All I know is that I
can't help it. Other people notice them on me, and Iım dying of
embarrasement. I feel undignified, and feel like a freak. This really hurts.
And I just want them to go AWAY.

I also have Panic Disorder. But twitching is never listed (in the many books
I've read) as an accompanyment to Panic Disorder. So I donıt know if the
two are related. My question is: is there medication to control twitching?
Also, what is biologically wrong with me. Would anticonvulsants like
Klonopin work?

I used to think my twitches were a side effect of my antidepressant
medications. But now Iım no longer taking those, and Iım taking Xanax
instead. I now think the twitching is inherent in me!!!

Help me regain my dignity, as Iım starting to think about suicide ...

What does your primary care physician say? Why not see a neurologist?
