MAKE IT STOP

By justin(((())))) - 15/07/2022 18:00

Today, and for the past few weeks, I've been hyper-aware of my heartbeat, and super paranoid that it’s just going to randomly stop beating at any time. This is a constant state for me, and it isn’t going away no matter what I do. FML

You should go to both a psychiatrist and a cardiologist. One or both should be able to help you.

welcome to the crippling thing called health anxiety!

You're not paranoid. It will inevitably stop one day. Cheers!

Practice meditation. I recommend yoga and transcendental meditation to cool your nerves. Reading a book and eating more healthy will help as well.

Sounds like you got myocardial issues. I’m the same. It’s sometimes due to an extra half-beat signal that hits it and the correction of extended time is what you are aware of. If you take your pulse, feel a vacuum in your chest with an extended period with no beat followed by a normal beating, check with a cardiologist. A med can stop the extra signal. I have this exact thing. Simple holter monitor if not happening in Drs office confirms it and it’s not invasive. Just a portable EKG the size of a pager. Good luck!
