so I’ve been worried for months about my heart. First, I had a really bad burning pain that lasted about a week. And then as soon as they ended, I started getting shortness of breath. It goes away when I’m not focused on it but it’s still here after months. And then I have back, jaw, chest, sometimes arm, shoulder pain. Pain everywhere. Sometimes it feels like my heart is jumping. Sometimes I get a really bad one that makes it feel like my heart stopped for a second and then I get anxious and my heart races. I’m so worried. I have little red dots on my cuticles and google said I have a blocked blood vessel. I’m also in the middle of coming off antidepressants, and it made my heart race all day. I also have weird head feelings, like I can’t focus or like I’m going to have a seizure and I want all of these feelings so stop. I want my heart anxiety to go away, the head feelings, everything. I’m constantly scared I’m going to die. I had 2 echos, 3 ekgs, and a chest X-ray in February that came back normal. I also had blood work in february, and blood work and a ct scan of my head in July that came back normal. I have a cardio appt this month for a yearly checkup and I’m so worried about the results 😭😭 I never have any relief and I’m just waiting for something bad to happen. I have no idea why I have anxiety and depression, it just happened. My doctors say it could be hereditary, I’ve had everything checked and I’m fine, but no one in my family is as bad as I am. I’m so scared about my heart 😭 is it enough to be checked about 8 months ago to assume I’m fine?? I’m so worried I don’t know what to do😭😭 I’m only fifteen and all I do is worry. Als my body temp changes a LOT. Like one minutes I’ll be cold and have the chills, and the next I feel hot. I’m so scared, can someone reassure me 😓
what antidepressant are you coming off of are you following the 10% rule? no more than 10% per month. Please scroll over your antidepressant on survivingantidepressant forum there are hundreds of stories like yours and how to cope with the side effects of withdrawal how to ease the effects. Anxiety is worse than any kind of illness and it is the great pretender. if you truly beleive you have clots go have your local er run a d-dimer test. It should show if you do but if you are coming off the antidepressants too fast it can cause a lot of these symptoms. Most doctors are f*****g morons when it comes to it as well. A dear friend was recently told after being on zoloft for most of her life yeah just stop taking it and switch to a different one. I have a comparison for doctors, when you go to a car lot do you buy the first one you see? or do you search around? that's just shopping around for a car. Doctors are here to help you with health, wellbeing and life. Choose carefully as most choose to not even research the drugs they prescribe as i can assure you if a doctor were to cold turkey an ssri... they would no longer reccommend it. Praying you feel better soon and please check the forum for your respective ssri.
