I suffer from anxiety and obtrusive thoughts regarding my heart. I wake up with a pounding heart everyday. It usually calms down as I take my meds. When I get a panic attack my heart goes really fast with skips in between. Those really freak me out; I worry that i'm going to drop dead from them. Does anyone else have this fear, or OCD over heart palps? I need to find a way to stop obsessing and thinking about it.
