Getting Old

wow if your in your thirtys your not really that old, im 42 and will be 43 in march next year and i dont even really consider myself old.. as i dont look or act it.. i think that is a big role in it as well .. i think you are only as old as you feel.. and i feel pretty young myself no one ever guesses my age and it makes me feel great knowing that i have aged well everyone thinks im in my twenties lol i get a big kick and ego out of that lol.. gotta love it.. but your not old yet so dont let that get you down enjoy life and live it to the fullest.. dont worry about being old just have fun every day.. that you can.. and enjoy ageing as you gain wisdom.. :)

I don't know if that's something that happens when you get older. My eye will sometimes twitch and I'm 19. I've found that it happens a lot more when I'm tired or when my eyes have been strained while reading or looking at a computer screen. Hopefully it's not a sign of getting older because I think it's a little soon for that to be happening just yet

I feel so old .. Never mind ...I often have leg pains..if I sit for too long. So I have started walking and avoiding watching as well as excessive mylotting. :) I have also started taking vitamin D, Vitamin B complex, and calcium apart from occasional aspirin. :) As to your twitching, I dont think it is normal in 30s. Twitching we all feel occasionally, but very occasional. Not frequent at all. I do have some pains in my fingers so typing is BAD. :) Perhaps you are short of some vitamins. May be you can correct the situation before your eyes get affected. Please consult the doctor. In all probability it is vitamin B complex deficiency. A couple of injections will make it go away. :) take care.

Well, dear friend, until the contrary is proved, time passes for everyone and actually goes in one direction! I do not know how many years have you (I think I understood about 30?), But I will have 37 of them and I can tell you that some ailment start to get it too. My teeth begin to cause problems, as well as this sometimes makes me a little sick one knee, and for two months has hurt me my right cheek. Whether I like it or not, now my doctor, I see him more often than a few years ago. This is the life!

I read someplace once that the twitching eyelid is due to stress...

Hi Phil, Just recently, I have this eye twitching on my left eye which irritates me a bit. I can relate because I'm also in my 30's. I think we need to take some,the much needed break from what we are doing everyday. I feel like that I overused my eyes already. It's been years that I constantly work using a computer, in office and at home. According to medical sites, If we are using a computer for long period of time, we need to rest our eyes every 2 hours by focusing on to something - like a flower in a vase, or the tree outside our home. Seeing anything that refreshes the eye can do something good. They say that a facial massage can also help. To be sure, I think that we need to check on with a doctor this coming Saturday. Our MDs can futher assess us if we have those deficiencies that needs to be corrected. We can make things easier Phil, we are not that old yet.

Hi Philly. I'm twice your age about. Lots of things are different. For instance, last year I developed an allergy after eating. I decided tonight it has to be the cooking oil I use. Because each time I've had the reaction and know what I ate, it was fried hamburger meat, or a pork steak. I'm going to start getting olive oil. My daughter is 36 and her eye was twitching the other day, and the doctor said it is from stress, which she does have alot of. Now when I go to do something like climbing or going down a bank to get a sign out of the water, it looks like nothing but when I start doing this, I am so careful about how I landl because of pinched nerves, bad back, etc,because I feel like i'm gokng to fall and hurt a limb or somethhing. I'm chicken now. I am on about 8 medicines now. Major one is blood pressure. Many changes will start in your body and after you understand these things, you will be happy.

I think eye twitches happen to anyone who is under stress. I also experience that when I am under stress. I see that in a 12-year-old who is under pressure.

Maybe the twitching is not due to aging but due to some vitamin or mineral deficiency. Better check with your doctor. I read somewhere that it could be caused by deficiency in potassium or something.

I guess getting old i something we cannot avoid. As time passes by I can also feel that I'm not getting any younger now and makes me wonder about the things I fulfilled the the things that I still want to do. We just need to enjoy everything we have right now
