My girlfriend recently noticed that
whenever I close my eyes, my eyes are
always moving behind my closed lids.
My eyes can't seem to rest, and I can't
make them stop moving.
When I close my eyes, she can see that my
eyes aren't still, and they seem to be
moving all the time. And now that I know
it, I can notice it too.
Has anyone heard this before?

Is this when you are asleep or awake?
Your eyes will naturally do that during
rem when you are asleep. I'm not sure
how to control it if you are awake though.

If this is while you're awake or trying to
go to sleep (& perhaps now that you
know about it - stopping you from getting
to sleep) then it may be due to stress, or
overtiredness, or wanting to deal with
things that you haven't done that day
etc.
The only way I know of to stop this type
is for you to learn to relax, yoga,
meditation, pilates, chinese ying/yang
balls, worry beads, soft music,
relaaxation tape , whatever works for
you.
If you are overly
stressed/worried/depressed etc you might
also look into natural remedies for stress
releif/reduction (5htp, sam-e etc).
