Great read. But im thinking what if I’m feeling them because of bad sleep? I slept pretty good last night.

Thursday I was on 4-5 hours of sleep. Last night I barley got any sleep, maybe an hour or two. Now I’m scared I’m extremely sleep deprived and may develop heart failure due to exhaustion or something. I’m laying down in bed and can’t sleep at all, my mind won’t let me and my heart is pounding away.

The reason why I’m freaking out over heart failure is because I read some stupid stuff online like how gamers who stood up 2-3 days in a row died of that stuff. Now I’m freaking out and scared.

That is not possible in your case.

I never sleep more than 4 or 5 hours a night and that is broken sleep.

2-3 days is not a few hours and that would not be what killed them - there would be an underlying cause.

True. I’m trying to be rational here. I’m just worried because yesterday I was a bit anxious that I had 4-5 hours of sleep and last night I got into bed around 11:40 and couldn’t sleep till about 7am till close to 9. Now it’s 12pm and I’m laying down trying to sleep but nothing. I’m just worried if my heart can take this abuse. I read some random stupid posts about how it can only take 24 hrs of no sleep to harm you or how it can trigger cardiac stuff. My mind is just....a mess.

Where are you reading this stuff though? Are they reputable medical sites?

Random YouTube/Reddit/Quora comments on how bad they think sleep deprivation is. One guy said he stood up for 24 hours and it triggered an SVT for him. Another said he stood up for 48 hours and started having irregular heartbeats.
