I have Generalized Anxiety and it has been exactly a year ago that I developed alot of physical symptoms. It started with a heart palpitations than I developed high blood pressure then the anxiety started, I had one panic attack and ended up in the E.R I thought I was having a heart attack.....scared the heck outa me and I have not been the same since.
I have been to the doctor and have had a few tests to make sure my hearts ok, but the thing is when I had these tests I never had a palpitation...i like my dr. but she said we are not going to do anymore tests......but I think the constant worrying about my palpitations has caused me to have anxiety.
I take a beta blocker for my heart palps and for my high blood pressure....but i still have heart palpitations plus I was on Zoloft for 10 months then I found it did not make much of a difference...I hate taking pills that are to with my brain.
Anyhow my worries are the heart palpitations because they say the symptoms are like you have heart problems..I guess my dr's assurance is not enough.
I sit all relaxed and my heart fops in my chest with such force sometimes that it really scares me...I have practised mindfulness, yoga but not to the point of where it is a daily thing,,,do they ever stop as quickly as they started......I pray for it to just go away....there is not one person that I know that suffers with what I except I read how normal it is on the internet, I just don't know anybody personally....so I feel so alone and scared sometimes.
