It seems to go like this:
I have anxiety and OCD as it is (as well as severe health anxiety). At baseline, I’m pretty anxious normally But only because I have a ton of stressors right now. I am in school, work full time, have a 9 month old, and am renovating my home. I gained a lot of weight in pregnancy so I have been pretty depressed about that and not feeling like myself. I’ve always had occasional heart palpations but nothing like I’ve experienced these past couple of weeks. It seems like 15-20-25 times a day I notice my heart flops for a second. After that I am in a state of panic, googling and freaking myself out more. I’m going to start taking a magnesium supplement. The last time I went to my doctor all my blood levels were perfect but my thyroid is a little low.
Any tips? What is going on? I’m convinced I have a heart condition.
I’m 23 years old, female and I do consume about 2-3 coffees a day.
