Hey everyone,
So about 6 months ago I had an episode that was suspected as SVT, I followed up with a cardiologist and he did every test. Of course everything came back normal, he didn't see any problems and suggested that my anxiety may be a possible trigger for my heart palpitations. He said I had no restrictions and was okay to exercise..
I want to exercise so bad, but I am extremely scared to. It is getting to the point where this is making me feel depressed. Because I am currently not happy with my figure. I see people online working out and I envy them, because I am literally too scared to. But I want to work out so desperately. With everything that I have I want to be in better shape, and my anxiety has a strong hold on me. It makes me sad and extremely depressed. Even though the cardiologist gave me the ok to exercise, I have a hard time just accepting that and going to work out. I have a strong fear that I will start having palpitations in the gym and my heart will just stop.. I can't take it..
I am just looking for some words of encouragement. I HAVE TO GET THROUGH THIS, because I CAN NOT and REFUSE to live my life like this. There are people worse off than me and they can still exercise.
I just need some emotional support right now.
Thank you
