I’m having a heart attack

[Sampowell542]

In work and my head goes fuzzy. My heart starts beating so fast! Skipping a best it feels! My chest is now sore and I can’t stop the thoughts that I’m having a heart attack. Please. It’s been going on for 20 mins now and I just want to burst into tears. I feel like I can’t breathe. I calm myself down and I feel fine but then it creeps back on me. It won’t stop

I’d be having a heart attack before 20 mins if I was wouldn’t I? It’s my anxiety.

Feel like I can’t take a deep enough breathe.

When you're having a heart attack, calming yourself down doesn't make it go away.

You're having a series of panic attacks. Nothing more.

If you stop telling yourself you're having a heart attack, I bet the panic will pass too :)
