i dont have anything wrong wit...

[errivbr4678778]

i dont have anything wrong with my heart i know i dont, i should have listened to you all a long time ago. i think this new thing i have going on has taken away my focus on my heart, its weird how my breathing is completely fine now im not thinking about it. the flutters come on when im stressed also. my focus now is this hiv thing... i know i was diagnosed with thrush which isnt even a sexual disease but the sore throat/swollen galnd and tingling down there has scared me.. i know hiv symptoms dont even show up for about 6 weeks but i cant help but worry all i know is if i get through this i wont ever worry about my heart again. but im not sure i will.

I'm sorry your feeling so bad I have had all the symptoms you just spoke of I thought I had aids for 6 years and wasted all those years worried and I never had it! It ruined me I also had a breathing awareness which ruined my life for almost 8 years I still have that but right now I'm focused on something else so of course my breathing is completely normal I also have suffered heart symptoms as well for years since I was a teenager and had every test done for the heart and nothing was ever wrong I know when you feel these symptoms it Takes over your mind and all you do is focus and stress and panic it's hard to function we are so hyper aware of every thing going on in our bodies and we convince ourselves we have these horrible things and that we won't get through it but I can guarantee you will get through this!

errivbr4678778, did I actually hear that you now believe there is nothing wrong with your heart? The thing with anxiety is it just took a different seat in a different row. But I'm happy you got past the heart thing

This shows how the minds works. Your just jumping from problem to problem. Take a second and analyze whay I'm saying. Thor not feeling the whole heart issue anymore because a bigger issue had come up. I'm sure your done and more than likely didn't catch anything. You can always ask the girl and put this whole thing behind you. Always get tested to be completely sure of course. Don't get caught up in this whole web of mind games. The sooner you realize this... the better you'll feel about everything. I just hope you can take my advise. I've been there.. I suffer through anxiety every day at some point but yoy have to figure out what works for you. Try the 4-7-8 breathing exercise. It works wonders for anxiety and panic disorder! How your feel better brother.

I fell asleep doing that breathing excersise lastnight I had a terrible migraine and couldn't relax and it put me to sleep! Good suggestion! 😀

You're beginning to understand yourself, errivbr4678778, you're making progress. And you accept that this HIV fear is false even though you can't feel free of it yet. We are all worriers here but a time comes when we mustcease checking for every ache, lump and bruise and start looking outward instead of constantly inwards. It's time to engage with the good things life has to offer you.
