hi guys, I’ve been posting about this a lot but I need reassurance because I’m super freaked out. So let me start from the beginning.. in February on valentine’s day I spent the holiday in the hospital after having my first panic attack, because I thought I was dying. My heart rate was up the whole time. I have several EKGs and several echos done by two cardiologists and they both said I was perfectly fine. Then recently, in July I was sent into a psychiatric hospital because my depression and anxiety were out of control. I got put on Mirtazipine and it worked for the depression, and I had about two weeks of no anxiety, and then my anxiety came back. I don’t know if it’s because the medicine doesn’t help anxiety or if I developed a heart problem, but I’m so scared. So around the end of July, I had a day where I was having pretty bad chest pains. They weren’t unbearable, but they were bad. It was like a burning pain in the middle of my chest and I was so scared. It went away after a few days, and then the next week i started getting shortness of breath. It went away, came back, went away and so on. It’s always so away when I don’t think about it, but I’m still so freaked out that I have something wrong with my heart. Just a few minutes ago, I had this felling like my heart fluttered or skipped a beat, and then i got super scared and my heart started racing. I read that this is a sign that there’s something wrong. I had my heart checked once this year, I’ve had so much blood work done, a CT scan of my head, and nothing is wrong except for the fact that I have anxiety and depression. I’m only 15, don’t smoke or drink, and I’m healthy. However I have a terrible diet. I go next month for my yearly check up at the cardiologist but I’m terrified because I’m so convinced something is wrong😭 I need reassurance because I’m so scared
Going through something similar. I’m scared there’s something wrong with my heart although I’m only 21 and have no family history. I know it’s irrational but it’s still scary. I know this is hard but I’m sure you’ll be fine. You’ll have good days and bad days, that’s just how it is with anxiety. I’m constantly worrying about my symptoms and it’s affecting my life. If you would like to talk, let me know.
Hi, thanks for the reply!! If you don’t mind, could you tell me your symptoms??
Sweet child it all sounds like anxiety to me. I was were you are at one point. Please relax your 15 listen to some anxiety muscic on you tube, talk to someone about what's causing your depression. Everything your listing are symptoms of anxiety (health) your fine. Just breathe and relax. Do NOT Google that's the worst!
Change your diet around, it’ll help you to know that you are doing everything you can for your sense of good. Also the pain in your chest sounds like acid reflux. I’ve been where you are in certain ways, just try to remember that testing and doctors are 99% correct when they advise (they’ve done like a decade of schooling to know what they know, as well as experience and any specialization training) and if you’re unsure, try a second opinion.
All kinds of crazy stuff. I don’t notice palpitations much but I do notice chest tightest, dizziness, tingling sensations, muscular back/shoulder pain, fatigue and even facial/jaw pain. I also really obsess over symptoms and even when I feel nothing my mind thinks it feels something and freaks out.
Hi,the more you stress or worry about it,the more symptoms you get,as soon as my doc said i was OK,i stopped stressing about symptons even to this day if i keep thinking about it,i can bring on symptons,mind,body thing,hope this helps,dont stress, hopefully no more symptons.
