I would be asking to see a neurologist if you are concerned. I know sometimes stopping medication (antidepressants) can cause this. Are you having any other symptoms or could it be a medication causing this?

i'm not taking any medication.. but now it's twitching my ear also..??

Michelle you need to speak with your physician about your concerns. One thing you have to know and I can tell you from first hand experience it is not always easy to get answers. You have to be your own advocate to the bottom of your problems. Don't be surprised if you get told it's anxiety, but you know your body better than anyone, so hang in there. Mya
