Calm while heart acts up!

Calm while heart acts up!

I just wanted to let everyone know that if anxiety plays a big part while you heart acts up you should try going on anti-depressants....i've been on 10mg of paxil for a month and when my heart goes all funky it doesn't really seem to matter....i stay calm...i can't get all worked up....and it's so odd cause i get random tachy episodes..whereas my heart races up to 120bpm while doing nothing...and i can't get all worked up....like before i was on paxil when my heart sped i would throw myself in a panic attack...now i just can't....it really makes you calm...
just wanted to let you know if you needed something for your anxiety you should consider a low dose of anti-depressants til your heart settles.... :)

But your heart is still going tachy and you seem to be living through it with no serious effects. That's good. I hope in time you can capture that calmness, that surety that your tachy times are not life threatening and you'll be able to face them minus the medication. I don't know if a person can be on those meds life long. It would be wonderful to be free of that.

I'm glad you're feeling better now.
