My Mom needs heart surgery & I'm a terrified, 47 yr old baby
I feel so selfish. My MOM is the one who needs her aortic valve replaced, not me. But here I am, terrified of the upcoming surgery. Terrified of how terrified I'll be. Why can't I reframe my thinking? Why can't I look at this as this will save her?! Quick background: I'm 47, female, never married, no

The Plans may Change...
I am still doing a fair amount of
breathing
exercise
for my anxiety and that is ongoing and used as and when needed.. ( less often now for those pesky panic episodes... ). The YWA Ten minute Balance breathing is splendid and can be done any time.

Should I be more involved?
Good morning everyone. I have only been attached to this forum for a couple of months and right from the start, I was amazed at the knowledge most people have about AF. Talking about atrial flutters, sinus rhythms, ectopics etc. etc. I have paroxysmal AF and something or other to do with an extra heartbeat

ADHD-PI dad + ADHD-PH 4yo boy = Chaos
I’ll try to be brief. We both have ADHD with different classifications. All family goes to therapy. He takes Methylphenidate since 3 months ago and goes to occupational therapy. Also 1mg melatonin for sleep since he started those meds. He showed issues at school since over a year ago. Been kicked out

Possibly the worst symptom of Afib
I have had 2 dramatic episodes where my ongoing heart palpitations got worse & went to my collapsing onto the floor for 20 min. I was covered in sweat, unable to move, felt dizzy, nauseous & with a tourniquet sensation on each limb. I have a doctor's followup appointment to discuss my 7 day Holter Monitor

Alternative responses
The details do not matter except that I have been diagnosed with clinical depression in the past. My normal response to situations is to lie down and try to let the mental moment pass. This time I attempted to combine breathing exercises to cease ruminating thoughts. It is not the best approach. Normally

A little less conversation...
Breathing
exercise
throughout the day... and finishing with... a relaxing body-scan at bedtime! Okay... That should keep me moving. By nine I had unpacked a shopping order...then I was off to sort med's with the chemist, for Dr OF and pick up a form for him from the GP!

Anxiety way out of control.
Hey there, my anxiety is non stop making my body shake, even if it's small amount I always feel everyday my body shaking. My panic randomly keep happening, usually I need a Trigger like something I'm scared about at the moment but now when I'm calm and listening to music or watching TV, a random out

...One step at a time...
Well.... it has been a while... and I had begun to think that, this time...I was not going to get back. But... as I have said on more than one occasion... it is hard to keep an old snail down. Events over the past weeks have tried their best, to floor me and times still have the potential to be tricky

"Walking: the most ancient exercise and still the best modern exercise “... Part One
By taking it slow and steady, ( what else), and with a short
breathing
focused
exercise
, I settled to sleep. I slept well and deeply. Waking to what would normally be a superb morning to run, I began, whilst still in bed, with a restful set of breathing exercises... and so the day begins!

Our Setbacks simply prepare us for our next Comeback...
Hello everyone... Here I am again.... and I have some ideas that are popping into my head... On C25K forum, where I am for a lot of my running time. I am aware of a few folk asking questions about illness, and injury and in particular getting back to running. For me, right now, I can totally empathise

Questions about AFIB
Hi Everyone I am a 59yr old diagnosed with Hypertension about 15yrs ago. To the best of my knowledge this has been fairly well controlled and i take 5mg of Ramipril each day. I haven’t lived the life of a saint but have kept myself fairly fit. I love my cycling and until this year would be doing anything

Now this one...we all need to do...
Hello people. Here I am again, clocking in with my progress. Just a short one today, but I feel, certainly for me, an important one. This morning followed a bit of a broken night...the weather was really warm and 10.30 found me, bleary eyed,, searching for a large cool sheet.... ! Asleep just after

Just stepping out of your door is an adventure... Walking, the Best Exercise...Part Two.
Okay forum friends here I am... Another day, another post and than you all for the many replies and photographs too. Another good night's sleep followed the relaxing breathing exercises and a few gentle stretches too, last night. Box breathing, done, in the shadowy cool of the evening, before settling

Time to get moving...gently does it...
Hello again.. Here I am clocking on for my daily post... I have had a fair bit of thinking time today, not bad, overthinking, but good, positive thinking! When we have issues in our lives, physical or mental, and have to take time out of our normal exercise routine, it may be tricky to find a replacement

Ablation Success
I thought I'd share my story as this forum has been a great help to me over recent years. Exactly a year ago I had an ablation for my deteriorating AF and I consider it to be a success. No more episodes. It has given me so much more confidence back in my life. This was my second ablation. My first was

You are not alone.
Exercise
, if you can. Meditation,
breathing
exercises. Medication, in the right doses. Your mind is the strongest and most complex part of your body, it’s ok if you don’t feel ok, it happens to more people than we realise and Even if they don’t admit it.
