for the last 6mths (september) it has literally been hell for me with my anxiety, wasn't able to go out, scared if i had some heart problem, intrusive thoughts that left me crying all day ,everyday, panic attacks multiple times a day which kept me from doing anything! i thought i was never gonna get out of this mess, thought that this will stay with me forever and i would become crazy. I didn't feel me.
my anxiety now is so much better than it was the past 6mnths and im happy to say that i can go out now, by myself without feeling anxious or even realising that im not anxious, going out in the afternoon to exercise with other people, handling situations far more better than i use to, eating without having a panic attack afterwards (i don't have an eating disorder , i get scared that my heart rate will raise), rarely have panic attacks and being the most happy I've been since September. i still struggle with anxiety at times and somedays i do feel anxious but im much better than i was before and by continuing to recover, i will overcome this. for those of you that are in a dark position now, there will be light full of happiness and joy waiting for you if you take action. see a psychologist, your doctor, start eating healthy, go out for walks, watch your favourite movie/show, have fun with friends.
please message me for questions and i will try my best to give a supportive answer
take care, you can do this

The palpitations after eating and just everything else that goes along with anxiety. I literally start breathing faster the minute I open my eyes because I start worrying about every single thing in my life.
That's no life
I also get the palpitations right after I eat mostly anything, what is up with that? What is that?
Hi I suffer with palpations like flutters almost daily now and it so scary, what did yours feel like? I've had blood tests and ecg at hospital everything looks fine had a 24 hour monitor fitted but waiting for results, I get a rush off adrenaline with my flutters every single day and it's so annoying and scaring me please reply bak thanks x
hi, the doctors know that everything is fine. this means that the palpitations are symptoms of your anxiety. if you learn to rewire your mind and understand that this is nothing than anxiety, than you wouldn't feel them anymore. by doing that, you need to first learn that this is anxiety and your are healthy, keep that in mind every single day whether you are anxious or having a panic attack, keep saying that you are fine; this changes your mind and see it in a less fearful perspective. then, try and stop paying attention to your heart (i know its hard! i still sometimes struggle with this) and do other things to distract your self, like seeing friends , watching movie etc. this will slowly make your mind forget about this situation. and lastly have patience, patience is the key to recovery. i know its hard but you have to push your self to do this to overcome. feel free to message me anytime Xx
