Thanks, Kimberly! She has tried this before but without holding her breath. Definitely worth trying.
Your welcome, let me know how it went. Its really scary to have the heart race and beat funny but maybe its just normal for some people, I couldn't say
well guys i have the same problem before going to bed i feel that my heart beat will race and even it will start headache some time i felt that the nerves in my head are beating so fast its a scarey feeling thinking that u r going to have a heart attack or going to die this is end of ur life but according to doctors its just anxiety one thing i want to share my problem get worst after i knew that i am having a problem of fast heart beat so i advice u to ignore it and be solution focused if u think that it could be anxiety. do regular exercise if it is thyoride hormone u will be fine
one thing i want u to know i am a muslim and our belief is that death will come at its time before time it is actually guarding u. so donot worry if this heart beat is not painful right now u r alive, enjoy every moment of life dont be scared.i have controlled my fear of death 100% if any one of u want to share u can mail it will be pleasure for me too to talk someone of my kind.

well a little motivation for my friends. listen as i told heart race it could be anxiety well if i will tell u my story it will take an hour to write in short i am also suffering from this problem and few days before i was in such a high depression that i wasnt felling any joy of life my plannings of life comes shorter to hours can u people believe that i never got hungry i was doing things with reall hurry as i am going to die in the next hour but u know that was just the fear. panic attack this kind of things. look those were real hard days i know i woke up at 1 am like goop felling no more sleepy at kept awoke till 6 am.I was feeling that death is chasing me and i am trying to run from it. I am dying here and these heckting doctors they dont even care this was my condition but listen friends now i am hundred percent allright. i did my consoling myself and few of my friends physcologist helped me out. Same thing i am going to tell u.
No 1 if doctor has told u that this fast heart beat its just anxiety then friends they are professionals let them do their work they know better then u belive them take it as a anxiety if u still thinks that its not death is chasing me.then look imagine that u r on a heavy bike and riding fast :-D death is chasing u and u look back at death and say heck on u death if u want me come and get me but right now i am alive i will die when u will catch me before that i have life infront of me go run for ur goals there is no goal make some goal make urself useful. what my physcologist told me u should be solution focused and i will suggest u to run after every success go run fast to get that u r alive u have no pain right now. u r not enjoying coze u have this little fear o come on. Be brave this is ur fight and u have to win it. In the begining controll it with angryness
o yeaahhh so be it this kind of things.
but one thing i want to mention do not do something that will give u guilt.Like hurting someone if u will turn a little religious thats even more better what ever ur religion is it will give u satisfaction. Feel free to contact me if u want to share my exams will start on 1st january if this heart beat is about anxiety i will let u know how i am felling after exams when this stress will be out. thanks enjoy ur life
if u r a student study hard as much as u can. u r doing job punch ur chest make a sign of victory u r going to conquer the world.
I made myself satisfied saying that it is good if u r in problem he will give u the strength to come out i will never quit.
thanks remember if its not a pain then its just a fear only a fear
exactly i think doctors are right its just anxiety sometime it could go worst i feel dizzy blurrness of image with this heart race common guys dont worry it will go way when u will feel secure and find some sucess remeber right now we are alive.
u r having this problem for 6 years my heart beat is still fast while typing this reply but its nothing i think what do u suggest should i take care of it or ignore it is a good technique
I just ate and my heart is racing with some feeling like a flopping or skipped beat .... I dunno what to do about this and I'm really getting sick of it. I can't do anything lately without my heart racing..... it beats so hard like its wanting to come out my chest
i think at first heart races due to some kind of disorder but in the begining it is ignorable but then we get panicked that it will get worst and that fear make the heart to beat more fast and hard so what i do i simply say its nothing it will take few seconds and over but take 2 liters of water daily it work on every one r u adult or teenager i dont know it will be over after 1 to 2 year dont worry live alive.if u religious there is a tip but if u r religious then i will give it to u it work like a relaxant pill.
I am 27 and not religious
its ok i am just waiting for pleasent moments to come when the exams will be over i dont know this heart beat will get worst or it willl go away
I remember feeling like that shorttly after I had my daughter and come to find out my iron was low. But its been two years since then, and Im still having the same feelings. Its possible it could be that and something else all together. Who knows.
I feel so sorry for us all! I think the answer is: there is no currently known answer! I'm 62, in great health, and I've had dozens of episodes of rapid heart beat (maxing out at around 124) for six years now. I've separated out as many variables as possible over the years: caffeine, alcohol, overeating, going to sleep late, salt and none of them seems to be the culprit. I think Western medicine's "answer" is to tell us we have anxiety. But that's simply not the case in most instances. I was put on 25 mg of a beta blocker (Atenolol) and it never seemed to do any good. I finally complained to my doctor that these episodes were ruining my peace of mind and she upped the dosage to 50 mg. Still no good. I've been at 100 mg/day for six weeks now with no episodes. But I've gone for several months before without incident, so who knows if this is the answer. I guess the important thing for all of us is to try not to worry, to know that we WILL come out of the episode, there is no damage done, and if our pulse goes over 130 we can always get to the ER for some relief. It's so unfortunate to have this affliction because it causes collateral damage, e.g., we may start to fear certain foods, we may become too focused on taking our pulse, etc. I've heard some "experts" say it's all about the Vagus Nerve. They recommend plunging your face in ice cold water or coughing or straining as if you're having a bowel movement or holding your breath in a certain manner. These all sound strange but let's face it. We'll do whatever we have to do to make it stop! FYI, there's an APP for your smart phone that will take your pulse (although it hasn't been 100% accurate 100% of the time). Keep the faith, everyone. You are not alone!
