Fears about your heart !

I have a fear of my heart just stopping ! I also think my heart is going to fast and it isn't but the more I think about it the more anxious I get then my heart starts to go really fast ! I suffer with a lot of feeling in my throats from feeling there's something stuck all the time to muscle spasms !! I had this feeling !! Anyone else suffer with this xxx

I've had that sensation before ,it's definitely anxiety. once you come down from it and relax for long enough, your body will have enough time to recover and it goes away. The whole heart issue am going through at the moment and it's horrible so a completely understand. Just had an ecg as i just couldn't stop it. It's came back fine but my symptoms are still continuing it's so horrible.. heavy chest and could just get up from sitting down and my heart will race so I panic further. It's like am in a constant state of anxiety at the moment and a can't seem to shut it off! Hope

You feel better just wanted you to know your not alone.

 Your heart will not stop. It's an automatic function and no matter how much anxiety you have, it will keep on beating. I know it can feel scary but anxiety symptoms cannot hurt you.  What makes the symptoms worse is when people sit around and think about them and panic over them because they will get worse that way. The symptoms are not the problem. The problem is that people are not learning how to manage the anxiety.  Once you learn how to manage anxiety better, you will have far less symptoms. All the anxiety starts in your brain so you need to relax the mind in order to relax the body. I have dealt with this for over 20 years . If you're really struggling get some counseling because this is sometimes difficult to deal with on your own. Another thing that completely relaxes me is listening to meditations for anxiety on YouTube. 

 have to do things that relax you, whatever that may be.

 try not to take life too seriously and keep a sense of humor! 

I have that feeling too. Sometimes I have chest pain, fluttering and I can feel my heart pounding. I have had all the test so I know it's anxiety. I am trying really hard to control it now.
