Muscle spasms

[Antman15 17]

I've been having weird sensations. My face muscles will twitch and kinda cramp up. I've been having sharp pain in my neck and bad headaches again. My left are has been feeling numb on and off. Some help please

All starts in your neck, sounds like you have tension in those muscles which is causing the sensations in your head.  These sensation are then assigned an emotion, fear.  This sensitizes the nerves and amplifies the signal.  Try to work on relaxing your neck, dropping the shoulders.  If you can remove the tension then you will feel results.

Even with the twitching face?

i get eye twitches and weird sensations in my face from my neck tension all the time.. all those muscles are connected. Nothing to be alarmed by.. try a heating pad on your neck... a hot shower things like that..

Yes, eye twitches are all interconnected and amplified by your anxiety.

I get twitches a lot, my whole leg or foot or hand or finger or arm will just move - its so fast I don't even see it, but I feel it, then I stare at the area intently for a few minutes waiting for it to happen again. Its worse when I'm stressed! If I'm really nervous my fingers twitch wildly its horrible.

I took Magnesium for the muscle spasms seemed to help a lot.

You stare at the area waiting for it to happen.  That's a sure fire way of making it happen through nervous anticipation.  Last year my foot felt numb and my leg kept going really hot and tingly.  This scared me, i went to the doctors about it, got xrays taken, the works, nothing was found.  I felt my leg at all times, i felt every footstep when i walked.  My leg started to lose it positioning in my mind, it was so strange.  It was anxiety, nervous introspection, gazing.  I genuinely did not believe that the mind could be that powerful.  I cannot stress this fact enough, if you gaze at any part of your body with the fear of the symptom you are feeling,  you will continue that feeling.  When you let go of it, it fades.  My leg feels perfectly fine again now, blips now and then of course but i do not fear it anymore and the symptom has gone.  It's worse when you're stressed.. EXACTLY.  The finger twitch again is anxiety.  You have trigger points in your fingers, much like the knee jerk reflex under your knee cap, that, when under stress, fire and cause the twitch.  Its the same cause for people with shaky hands.  It's all nerve based and anxiety and stress effect nerves and the central nervous system.  I take magnesium also, most people don't get enough of it in their diets.
