Many possible causes: Your twitches may be related to any number of reasons including anxiety, stress, stimulant overuse (for example, caffeine), overexercise, or nutritional deficiencies. See your physician if you are concerned. Here is some more information: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003296.htm
