Hi guys! I'm on here posting again! I'm 16 years old and a few minutes ago I was laying down and i felt something in my left breast near where my left ventricle would be. It's hard to describe, but for a few seconds, I felt my heart beat in my left breast and it wasn't like fluttering but it wasn't hard either. I don't know if it was a twitch in my chest/breast or something with my ventricle and Im really scared. I had an ecg done before but I'm terrified of having those bad arrthymias. :(
try to remember that people get all sorts of twitches and pains and other sensations. 99% of these are nothing to worry about. It most likely was not arrhythmia or even your left ventricle. It could have been a little twitch or skipped a beat which happens a lot in people who have anxiety. I have had that many many times and it’s not harmful.
if your EKG was normal, you have nothing to worry about. If you have anxiety, that’s what you should be working on managing better so that you don’t worry so much. At your age it’s very rare to have a heart issue.
Is there anything in your life causing you anxiety?
Also, anxiety can produce hundreds of symptoms that are not harmful.
It can also cause us to have negative and fearful thoughts that are not based on reality or fact.
And take care of yourself! Do things that relax your mind, don’t forget to laugh and smile and try not to take life too seriously. Take care!
thank you so much for your reply! I have a lot of anxious situations going on, which is causing these things like palipations, then my health anxiety makes me even more anxious. I want to try to help myself, but I can’t.
