I was doing good with controlling anxiety. But days where I get anxious, it's all based around my heart. I'm terrified of excersising because I feel like I'll die. I used to maybe feel my heart palpitations once or twice every 6 months. Since anxiety, I feel it daily.. Anybody else? I've had ekgs and blood work. Everything comes back fine. But my heart just always feels achey, sore, like it's fluttering even when i don't actually think it is.. Anybody else? How do you deal with it? I noticed the one day I didn't have any heart issues.. Until i thought about anxiety, then it started.. Irritating!
Hi... I suffer chest pain as you are almost everyday even all my test is normal (ECG, stress test. CT scan etc) ... Anxiety change my life... Everyday is like my last day... But I'm still hoping one day I'm anxiety free and be normal again...
I am so relieved somebody else knows exactly what I mean.. So frustrating how it can just turn your world upside down within a day it seems!
Ok I was exactly the same Ive had depression for 16 years the anxiety only started in December, I went to a and e twice thinking I was having a heart attack.
Lots of test were done and everything was ok I wasnt until I came onto forums like this I realised it was anxiety.
I used to crawl into bed when an attacks started now I know there is nothing wrong with me and I have to keep telling myself there is nothing wrong with me I go for a brisk walk and it helps a lot.
The fight ir flight mechanism in your head is broken and you constantly think you are in danger.
You have to learn how to cope meds alone will not help anxiety
Stay Strong
I literally stopped all forms of exercise because I was scared that my heart would just randomly stop.. My goal this week is to walk around my block without a panic attack happening. Fingers crossed
Just little bits at a time and you will get there
Take care
Hi Delaina, You are not alone I am suffering from situation.... its our Brain and Anxicity trying to take control just stay strong and send the NO or X or STOP singal to brain i know its not easy besause i'm in same position trying hard.
Hope we all come out from this horriable felling. May God Bless Us All.
That's why we need to help each other to overcome this sickness...
Walking calm it. Walking or pacing but walking does calm it the best. Not over the top real fast kind, the relaxing normal pace walking.no sweating, not over exerting type.
thats not from the actual walking, it from the anxiety itself and leaving the house while anxious. Thats happened to me but its important not to connect it to anything or youll start making anxiety rules and it complicates everything real bad.
