Ouch!
I can feel them in my back! ;_;
It bothers me because I cannot relax.
Being busy during the day is fine, but it's causing me utter torment when I want to relax and de-stress, because it CAUSES me GREAT stress, and all I've done is cry for the past week, because I am miserable.
It's torture because I never know when it's gonna hit. In the beginning, they were like every other minute, or every few minutes, but there's no pattern to my current ones, and when it hits me, it's a major unpleasant surprise. It's like that ALL day EVERY day!!!!!
I wish to God I had never brought this on myself. I was normal until our friend died of her heart attack.
I wish to God I had never dwelled on it so much.
I'm in a living hell, and there's nowhere to turn. ;_;
I have found that with my anxiety, and the symptoms it can bring both mentally and physically, I notice it the least when I occupy my time. You may not feel like doing much because of how worried you are about your heart, but if you force yourself to go do something that requires some thinking, you may not notice it as much. Don't know if this helps, but hey, its worth a try. Hope you get well soon.
There HAS to be SOME WAY to get my heart back to normal!!!!!
How many different therapists have you seen? I know for me, it took a good 3 visits to different ones until I found one that I was comfortable with. Also, I know it can be VERY frustrating to deal with this and it can seem like an impossible task to overcome, but we have all been there and it can and does get much better.
One of the biggest problems I had to deal with was that there was no single, quick answer to confronting my anxiety. I wanted immediate results, but I learned this is a process that can take some time. I was at a point where I was at the lowest of the the low and it took awhile to get where I am now, but throughout this process you learn to not only cope and deal with this, but to actually THRIVE with it.
I believe my experience with panic and anxiety has made me a much more well rounded person. You couldn't have told me that when I first started experiencing it, because I felt utterly hopeless about my situation, but you can and will get through this....keep us posted!
Anxiety and panic attacks brought this on.
Why on earth does nobody have an answer as to get it to go away? ;_;
I've seen a Cardiologist, therapists in this area are a joke.
NOBODY HAS AN ANSWER!!!!! MY LIFE IS IN SHAMBLES!!!!!!!
Maybe you could try cardioversion? There are cardiac drugs that affect the rhythm of your heart in all sorts of ways. Speed it up, slow it down.......heck, they can even make it just out and out stop. Perhaps a pacemaker? Naw, I think that's for when your heart DOES stop........not really sure 'bout that one.
Once again, I suggest you see a cardiologist. Even if you've already seen one, you need to discuss, in more detail, your concerns and your options.
Or............you need to hook up with a therapist who can help you deal with your heart anxiety.
Personally, I think the latter idea is your best bet.
Peace
