Last night I was suddenly aware that I couldn't feel my heartbeat and ever since I've been really worried, usually when I get up quick I can feel my heart pounding but today I haven't at all, my mum says she never feels her heart beating and tht it's normal but I'm just so worried I've got a heart problem or a slow heart rate or something :( does anyone else feel this ? X
This is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about. Most people don't feel their heart beating.

Yes, it's totally normal not to be aware of your heartbeat ....many anxious people are actually over aware of it....so don't worry, it's normal.
I used to be so aware of my heartbeat that I had endless hours of palpitations etc... over time I've learned to ignore it, and I am hardly every aware of my heart beat now, but my mind focuses on other symptoms instead.

I don't feel my heart beat either. I hear it in my head as I have pulsating tinnitus but I don't feel it in my chest e.t.c. HUgs xxx
im glad u posted this :) ye its very common nothing to worry about i get it too its freaky haha :), all the best xx
I've never felt my heart beat.......I don't think you are meant to ! The only time I have felt it is when it is pounding at highly anxious times or getting a run of ectopic beats. So, I reckon you are now worrying about feeling normal ! :winks:

Thank you all so much, been freaking out about this all day! It's a very odd sensation ! I Think I am panicking about feeling normal! I haven't had a panic attack all day and it feels weird! I have all the thoughts there but they don't turn into a panic! Has anyone else been through this? just like a blank feeling? I've been thinking all sorts about it.. - am I going crazy/losing my mind? Am I gonna die? Etc.. So strange to not have panic there it doesn't feel right or normal! Lol xx
I haven't had a panic attack all day and it feels weird!Aww bless you ! :D Are you on some meds that have finally kicked in ?
Just view it as a good sign, you are having a really good day and your heart rate is back to normal.

No not on any meds at all which is why I think it's weird I haven't had a panic ! Do you think it's anything to worry about? Xx
Don't worry I can never find a pulse anywhere, sometimes it takes me hours to find it and I start to panic. We had to find a pulse at college once and I couldn't find it and ended up having an attack and turned to me friend to ask her to find it, she found it for me after a while and I calmed down. I think its normal to have this happen, and lots of us in the class had trouble finding pulse/heartbeat so don't worry!
