Today I got this feeling where my heart raced and I couldn't really breath. It only lasted for about 5 seconds but I can't stop wondering if this is normal...

Yes I often get this it can be a bit unervcing but soon passes, had it checked and nothing wrong, I just stop and breath gently the mini panic will soon pass. Sometomes bendiong over for shoe lacing or like will cause the heart to mi beat fast. Take care From helen

yes love sounds like a mini anxiety attack. Please Please dont dwell on it or you will feel anxious waiting to see if you have it again. You dont have to be panicking to have a panic attack. Dont fuel it by thinking about it. If you feel like it again its best to find a distraction. Sing out loud. or focus on something around you. They are totally harmless but can be very frightening I know I have had them 35yrs.xx

Sounds similar but as always it's best to check with your GP. I have been suffering from anxiety attacks for over 20 years it's not fun, but I'm still here :)
