Does anyone get non stop twitching in their arms as a result of anxiety? I have it 24/7, not every seconds but every 5 mins for example . Had this for 3 months now🙁

Yes my husband does . Shakes all the time with anxiety. Nothing seems to help sadly. I wish I could find an answer.

Yes. I started twitching in 2007. It’s still here these days but I’ve gotten so used to it that it doesn’t phase me much anymore. Look up benign fasticulation syndrome. If all other causes have been ruled out, it could easily be the cause of your twitches.

I don't have uncontrollable twitching, but I tense my muscles, especially in my legs and at times my upper arms. I'll be watching TV or talking on the phone, and for some reason I do this tensing. I am constantly anxious and fidgety and can't relax. I also move my fingers in a rigid way. I don't realize I'm doing this until my mind takes a little break from thinking or 'til I'm done doing something (watching tv/on phone). I think my mind is reacting to constant stimuli and I don't get a break. Things are coming at me in every direction and many things at one time. When it is quiet, I don't feel as bad/anxious. It's very difficult to live this way.

Maybe your twitching has something to do w/ a constant stream of things happening that are stressful for you, w/out you realizing that those things could be causing your anxiety.
