Bed rest and supportive treatment, especially to control hypertension (high blood pressure).

A calcium channel blocker, nimodipine, can be given to reduce the arteries in your brain going into spasm which further leads to more damage. Some surgical procedures such as clipping the aneurysm that caused the bleed or inserting a coil can be used to prevent a re-bleed.

Why do you have the crazy urge to twitch your neck?

I have a need to twitch in my neck also. I would describe it more as a thrashIng to the side. It happens when I am tired. Usually this coincides with extremely powerful (actually painful) yawning.
