@ebayisya611 It depends on how it is being used. If someone is feeling restless, having a hard time sitting still, but they know they should behave well (such as in class, or at a job interview) they may say “I can feel the jitters creeping up” to show they are having a hard time sitting still. “Jitters” sometimes means movement, it could be twitching, or tapping the foot.
“Jitters” can also be used to describe a feeling of fear. If the person is somewhere scary, or they are afraid of being hurt, they may also say “I can feel the jitters creeping up.”
