my eye won't stop twitching

Nothing new, the common eye twitch or commonly known Blepharospasm. I'm not sure amongst which circle an eye twitch would be referred to as the aforementioned Blepharospasm, but it certainly wasn't mine. Anyway, I decided to research a tad to discover what might be the source of such annoyance:

  1. Fatigue or lack of sleep
  2. Over consumption of caffeine
  3. Physical or emotional stress
  4. Anxiety or phobias
  5. Brain damage or other neurological disorders
  6. Associated with temper tantrums (especially in children)
  7. Eye stress associated with extended viewing of the computer screen
  8. Epilepsy
I am affected by seven of the eight, potentially. Silver lining here would be the five dollar word, Blepharospasm, that I added to my vocabulary.
