If the levels of either of these get too low, replenish your supplies.

Post by: Ghost of Stan Parrish on June 04, 2012, 03:57:40 PM: Lack of sleep/too much stress. Sleep is the cure.

If you just want to stop the symptom rather than address the underlying problem, a botox injection will stop the twitch.
