I hate this. It’s driving me insane. I feel fine. And then boom. I get hit with a heart palpitation that takes my breath away and i freak out. I can’t calm down. And then they get worse because I’m freaking out. My chest hurts. My head hurts. The palpitations keep coming. I’m crying and so close to going to the hospital.
My health anxiety is taking over my life. These heart palpitations are terrifying and I just want them to stop....
Going through the same thing now I have on going anxiety and keep getting panic attacks and feel like I'm not intact with reality it sucks I was living good and didn't have problems i got 1 panic attack and then it changes my life since im still going to doctors and seeing if anything can help they gave me meds but they make me feel worse so trying to do everything natural because I don't wanna depend on pills all my life
I completely understand! Been going through same thing for last 4 days. I have been in ER everyday and they just keep saying .. it’s panic attacks.
Keep saying. “ you’re not real you can’t hurt me”
I’m am currenting laying in bed with my heart rate very elevated trying to calm myself down.
If here if you need to talk
I feel like these drs think it’s no big deal.
Today I have a heart flutter and my heart rate sky rocketed. They took me in straight away but then said I wasn’t having a heart attack and told me to wait my turn in waiting room.
They say that and act that way because they don't feel what we go through only we do and it sucks not even on my worse enemy I would never wish this upon any one (which I don't have any) im just taking it day by day stay positive it has to go away eventually
Sometimes I just come to the site to find other people who are going through the same things I’m going through. I feel so alone sometimes even when I’m surrounded by people. I have many good people in my life but they don’t understand how I’m feeling....
Also going through the EXACT same thing. In the last 3 months I have been to the ER 5 times and have seen 3 cardiologists and a psychiatrist. They all tell me it’s anxiety. The scariest things are my chest flutters that now last up to 7 seconds and it feels like my heart is spazzing out and then I can’t breathe and get really dizzy.
My anxiety spikes during my period. I get really bad shortness of breath and can't sleep. This leads to really bad headaches. It's crazy because I don't even feel anxious yet have all of these anxious feelings. Do you take medication for anxiety?
I have been there but I have found something's that help yes I still get the take your breath away palpitations but I was getting hundreds a day now a few. I take magnesium every day took over a month for it to help but now I don't miss a day. I have had this for 2 years so if I was going to die I would be dead so I worry less ( just have other health anxiety) taking a brisk walk when they are bad and getting my heart rate up seems to help. I do 30 min. I drink Hearb tea at night I like yogi bedtime it has valerian root I think that calms me. I take other vitamins daily too that help anxiety. Hope this helps and know your not alone.
I’m taking Effexor XR. I’ve been on it for a month. Before that I was on Prozac and it made my depression worse
Effexor has been helping my depression but not so much my anixety. It’s helped a little but I still get bad panic attacks. I have Xanax but I try not to use it...
I can feel your pain because I m having the same problem and even I don't know how to treat this. This sudden heart pain kills me sometimes. Can anybody tell me that how to overcome this pain?
