Overcome Heart Anxiety with this comprehensive guide, sharing my personal journey of conquering this debilitating condition after 5 years of struggle. Watch in full screen as I unveil insights that can change your life.
Part 1: Unveiling Heart Anxiety
Explore what Heart Anxiety or Cardiophobia entails for those battling anxiety issues. Learn how it grips your life, creating a phobia around heart-related concerns, leading to continuous anxiety and isolation.
Part 2: Symptoms Decoded
Delve into the common symptoms of cardiophobia, including palpitations, chest tightness, and breathlessness. Understand the impact on daily life as these symptoms intensify over time.
Part 3: The Genesis
Discover how heart anxiety often emerges unexpectedly, triggered by stress or anxiety attacks, activating the fight or flight response. Uncover the cycle that ensnares individuals, perpetuating fear and panic attacks.
Part 4: The Downward Spiral
Explore the accelerated decline as individuals seek medical reassurance, perpetuating a cycle of tests, clear results, and renewed anxiety. Witness the cycle's impact on mental and physical well-being.
Part 5: Quest for Control
Follow the journey of seeking control over symptoms, often misunderstood, leading to a continuous loop of anxiety. Understand the pitfalls of fixating on symptoms and the futile pursuit of reassurance.
Part 6: The True Path to Recovery
Challenge misconceptions about acceptance as a quick fix. Embrace a deeper understanding that acceptance is not a tool to eliminate symptoms but a process to allow your body and mind time to calm down and recover.
Discover the transformative approach to recovery by developing curiosity around your body's reactions. Release the need for absolute control and embark on a journey of self-improvement, incorporating small changes for lasting positive impact. Reclaim your life from anxiety and cultivate genuine acceptance for a brighter future.
Realize that conventional methods may have failed, and only by building habits of self-improvement can you break free from anxiety's grip, leaving it behind for good.

After 15 years of panic attacks and severe cardiac anxiety, last week I was laying on the floor and saying to myself “f this, just kill me already. I don’t care anymore.” Since then, I’ve managed every single attack without reaching full panic mode. That is the true cure. You must accept it.
Yes it's hard to exercise when you fear you might die.
Hey I don't know who's seeing, Do this steps : Go for run, Exercise daily, eat good food, avoid fast food for a while, develop powerful mantras and say daily and try to socialize, keep yourself busy. That's it. You'll see the changes and this is coming from a person who has experienced this 1 year ago and totally recovered in 2 months. I'm better version now. Trust me this is happening for a better good. Just start taking actions and you'll see the changes. Everythings good. You're a healthy person, don't worry about that. Good luck and remember to pray to God. You can't overcome this without God.
Thank you. I needed this
Iknow the getting out of the house part is the most difficult for me when i am alone outside and my heart has skipped beats or is racing i feel scared but i know the only way out is trough
I also think that people with anxiety refuse to go outside and socialize.
@@superm5406 it’s because there scared the anxiety will come
❤
One thing I’ve learned that helped me is if it’s anxiety and not an actual heart attack getting up and walking around to feel better is actually not a heart attack because walking around would actually make it feel worse
I was like you. I did all the tests I even stopped working for 3 months straight.
One day I had a panic attack again and I went to the ER again but this time the blood test gave me false positive, I can’t explain my feelings at that day when I took the ambulance and went to near city ( 120 km)I thought I am dying.
When I arrived they took blood and do ECG and I was shocked that the doctor say IT IS NORMAL. At this time I feel like switch in my life I take action I STOPPED GOOGLING, I become more religion, went to gym, walking everyday and become more social person.
My advice to anyone having the same after taking all the tests and everything, if it’s normal just ignore and make good habits.
Sorry for my bad English, but I hope this will help at least one person.
❤
This was the biggest battle I had which consumed 4 years . Finally on the better side of recovery . Takes a lot of work but I believe in you all
I love it! Hope to hear your story one day
@@ImprovementPath I suffered General anxiety for a year now after listening and followup your videos for about 6 months today I have recovered drastically, I can say for within this 6month I have been 80 to 90 percent anxiety free but all of a sudden three days ago my heart palpitations has started continuously, I don't want to get back to the anxiety circle .
@marcelyongho9382 This is where you put everything you have practiced into place . Symptoms can present them self at any time but you need to stay true to your recovery journey .
How did you come out of it , can you tell please
@@marcelyongho9382please tell your medicines
Am i the only only one whos literally scared to even go poop, shower or even stand up because my heart will start racing and of course my anxiety will make it worse? I mean i still do it every day but i just hate how im scared of these simple activities i hate when my heart gets to 140 over nothing but fear 😞 Great video btw! I have been diagnosed with gad and panic disorder but my cardio phobia is my worse fear smh
100% not! I was the same and I even mentioned the shower thing in a couple of my videos before :) so please, no matter how bad you think anxiety is - it doesnt mean you cant fully recover
Me
were the same, 1half year of this suffering😢
OMG samee... I try to walk slowly, i avoid climbing stairs, i cant laugh hard enough and so on! All because of this
4 years and just yesterday 3 am I felt like I can't di this anymore... today at lunchtime found the courage to ring a therapist. Feel like I'm finally on to something.
Yes!! Happy to hesr that!
ACCEPTANCE. It’s the key. Use the DARE response! Changed my life.
I have heart palps and I never really knew why. It has been tested, scanned everything but doctors say I shouldn't worry. It has come to a point where I'm kinda avoiding exercise... I'm ready to make a change.. Getting that heart rate up day by day. Saying this out loud to be motivated.
Thanks for the video.
Such a major part of anxiety. Again you nailed it!!
Thanks man!
I had no idea this was a thing. I was rushed into A&E two years ago and spent 6h there, they did all the tests and found nothing wrong and sent me home. When I go to bed my heart rate is normal, about 60-70, then I wake up between 2-3am with my heart racing at 120 like I'm about to have a heart attack and I don't know why. I often cry myself to sleep because I think my heart is failing. Recently I accepted it might be all mental and not actually physical. I haven't had junk food in three months, I work out 3x week and I'm not overweight, don't drink alcohol or smoke. I was under a lot of stress in the past 2-3 years so that could be manifesting itself, but I did recognise what was bothering me subsconsciously so I'm fixing that at the moment. I was in a denial for years, but in the end I caved and accepted it and now trying to mend things. I am still sensitive to my heart rate, if it's not 60-70 I start to panic because I think something is wrong and that just makes everything worse. This is what is helping me:
1. I eat two meals at 9am and then 1pm or just one large meal and don't eat or drink for the rest of the day unless I'm thirsty. Goes without saying I say away from eating or drinking anything processed. (that makes sure I digest my food easily and quickly throughout the day so my heart rate drops by the evening when it's most noticeable and that calms me down)
2. I workout 3x week where I sweat a lot and I do easy/light 20min cardio first thing in the morning and in the evening on days where I don't train sports! I come home and have a hot shower. (that makes my heart less noticeable, before my entire body would vibrate with the heart, now with regular exercise I don't sense it unless I really focus on it and that makes all the difference)
3.I twitch my pointer and middle fingers whenever I sense my heart beat, moving fingers makes the heat rate sensation go away for some reason but I found it helps me if it gets bad
4.I'm trying to not care whether I have a heart attack and die or not. I can't live like this in constant fear so I can't give a F anymore honestly. Whatever happens happens and that makes it a lot easier to cope. I made sure I put all my assets to my parent's name and created a document explaining in case of my death here are all my online accounts with credentials and how to delete them, banks accounts, etc. (that lifts a lot of pressure of what happens if I die)
5.vitamin D (I take it religiously every day throughout winter until it gets warm and sunny again, it makes ALL the difference!)
I'm still not completely over it but getting there.I did come to terms of what's causing all this and I think I can fix it but I need some more time. Until then the above has mostly been helpful to me, I hope someone out there will find it helpful as well.
Yes this is very helpful thank you! Just starting to come out of this as well and such a relief to hear your success story and how you cope!
@@BossyJossyMedia All the best to you, it's not fun at all. I've been living for years with this mental torture but my state improved dramatically in the last two weeks since I wrote that post. I think finding this video and learning that there are others out there suffering from the same thing ironically calmed me down a lot. Seasons are changing so that helps as well and I can't overstate what a lifesaver regular exercise is. Good luck!
I have been having heart palpitations (pounding heartbeat) for over a year now with no sign of going away.. I can stand up and tell you what my heart beat is.. I can even feel the pulse in my throat beating whenever I’m laying down but I did all the tests possible and nothing was found. I exercise same way and i have realized that nothing physical is wrong with me
I too was so intune with my body that I could feel literally everything! It will get better if you implement the teachings in the recovery playlist :)
Try electrolytes, that cured mine.
How are you now ?
Hey man, how is it ?? I did all tests at hospital and they found nothing wrong about my heart. I only feel 24/7 heart palpitations, and rest heartrate is around 100 + its pounding. They gave me diazepam and Propanalol but idk what should i do.
Same story here, was in hospital last week, They did all the test and said nothing is wrong... And even after that stilk the same story keep on thinking about my heart, and dont even want to be alone... Its to such extend that i felt so so weak and out of breath, as i heard people saying that is what happends if you get an H-Attack, I cant sleep at night and every time i have chest pain or a palpatation or a dizziness bhaaam full on Anxiety / Pannic attack hits me and then its way worse... I listen to anxiety prayers and that really helps me
The Anxiety Master is back with a bang!!!!💥
☺️thanks! haha good to see you hear!
I wake up in the middle of the night with my heart racing thinking I'll just drop dead. Then I cry myself back to sleep. My grandma suffered a heart attack right before me months ago and I haven't been able to overcome the shock. Cardiophobia sucks! You think you'll die any given moment.
me too, just woke up last night again and it's still racing now nearly 12h later... I'm slowly getting frustrated to the point where I just won't give a F if I die or not, this isn't a way to live
@@bsdpowai feel you mam…
I have been there after my first panic attack i spiraled and everytime i went to bed when i layed down felt this butterfly feeling in my stomach and then my heart started racing. It’s awfull i now i used meditation music and calm music to help calm me down.
Same so same 😭😭 my grandmother died from a heart attack too and i am having cardiophobia since then i went to hospital 5 times in a month just because of panic attacks thinking its a heart attack but all my test were normal
I’m over 5 years now, it comes and goes. The thing that always brings it back is my high blood pressure , I just can’t seem to get it down when I check or go for a health. Il be doing fine with no anxiety Then I get stuck in a vicious cycle again. My bloods are always fine but bp constantly 135-140. I need to just let it go and tell myself it’s fine and just crack on , what will be will be but I can’t . Over 5 years now
Il come back to an old heart Bp anxiety video and see a comment I’ve made 4-5 years ago and it’s just depressing , like is this how long I’ve been thinking about this
I was in the same boat but something switched in me that made me stop obsessing over these numbers. Looking back I am almost sure that it was making BIG life changes for me (starting my business, getting in shape and meeting my now wife) all these things became my priority and anxiety slowly moved to the background and eventually disappeared. Hence why I preach that one will need to make life changes for oneself and not for anxiety. Try to improve yourself and become a confident person by working towards your dream life. Once you see some positive effects you will feel that wave of pride that will flush out anxiety
I wish i can talk with you elsewhere cos watching you alone set me free from this monster 👹😊
Today i am having chest pain most probably coused by muscle tightness but this is making me scare . This video comes at a right time .
:) glad I could help and yes, most of the symptoms are from tension - for sure!
This is crazy. You literally described what what I was/am going through to the T. Finally getting to a point where I wanna get back into exercising, it's been a long time. Just trying to overcome the thought of a high heart rate is a bad thing, it's a good thing! If my heart is pumping, it means I am alive
Also this channel also helped me a lot of overcoming this. I no longer sees his videos but those are great. Lifesaver, thank you admin
Happy to help!
I am suffering from cardiophodia since 8 months can't even stop thinking about it
Abhi kaise ho?

Thanks a million for helping me through my anxious times. Your kindness is truly appreciated.
Happy to help! Glad that the videos help
You are by far the best help I've received so far! Thank You
You are so welcome!
Can’t thank you enough for this video. Been indoors for three months now, and I can’t see a way out yet but this video and seeing people suffer with the same has helped. Three ecg tests all came back fine, blood tests fine blood pressure fine but am still convinced my heart is u healthy and I’m going to die. Horrible !😢
Do you ever feel like you're choking inside your heart? So scary😢
I went thru this as well, my Cardiologist also mention people with anxiety there EKG comes out abnormal, I was like whaat!
Yess anxiety can create the craziest things!
sorry, I'm afraid of the skipped heartbeat that comes after eating, but if I scrupulously pay attention to a very healthy diet, aren't I telling my subconscious that I'm afraid? Shouldn't I eat normally like a healthy person who doesn't have heart problems? I hope in your answer.
@@pasqualemessina10me too I suffered like a month of heart skip beat after food.
@@pasqualemessina10you have to find a balance. It’s ok to indulge once in a while with your favorite “unhealthy” foods. Your body needs extra nutrition since you have been having high anxiety to have a clearer mind and a stronger body. Gut and the Brain connect heavily with each other so yes eat healthy for your body’s sake but indulge for yourself.
@@fat-batman_can u explain the heart skip beat? do u feel it in ur throat
Thanks for yoir video. Im from 🇵🇭
Whenever i take stairs to my 3floor = faster heart beat ( which is normal)yet leads to stress which leads to symptoms, symptoms includes chest pain and boom again panic. How to break this cycle.?
Did you check out the recovery playlist? It is a good place to start :)
Heart not in rhythm - OK during the day, out of rhythm at night or when trying to rest...
Can this also make you feel like your heart isn’t beating fast or strong enough like it’s going to stop?
Your videos helped me a lot.I have no words to thank you.Great man❤
You are most welcome :)
@@ImprovementPath i feel dizzy everytime this give me more anxiety..did u feel dizziness ?? Pls help its ruining my life...how to cope
@@tejindersingh7467 me to
I have anxiety with low blood pressure i am underweight
Skipped heart beats all day every day 😢
It will go away brother...dont think much about it...i was facing this everyday for a month....it even skips beat three to four in a row which really scared but everything will be ok
This happens to me too . I get so tense that I can actually think about getting skipped beats .. and they start happening , probably from the extra adrenaline in my system .
I've had PVC 's and PAC's , flip flops , somersaults for 40 years .
Been suffering since 2021. Angiogram , 3 EKG says its normal but has minimal abnormalities. My anxiety come and go. I just want it to be over.😢
Oh my gosh you nailed every word I’ve been experiencing for the last past year it’s been 8 months literally!!! But I had losted more loved ones over the years and have been thru so much but when I lost my uncle back in may & then someone close to me a month after then after that another month someone I knew then in September my little cousin got murdered I just couldn’t control myself of overthinking then I started panicking all in all out of nowhere like never before !! In the car I would freak out out of nowhere, then at night before bed & one morning I woke up had felt like my heart was racing as I was laying down through my mattress at like 6 am I was freaking out so bad I didn’t know what was going on never had a problem like this before this was back in November I called the ambulance an they said it was heart palpitations knowing I had no clue even what that was and I got my heart rate up to 1:30 but I had told them I’ve been feeling like I’ve been dealing with real bad anxiety lately more than ever before I’ve been so scared smh anyways did a holter monitor for 7 days an my results said something about sinus tachycardia 😮which is guess is normal and my doctor said everything was good no signs of anything bad like of death because I had impending doom so badly and also did two chest X-rays and EKGs and them where normal soo it all fell down to me just having really bad anxiety & it’s just now starting to ease up due to yoga, meditation & focusing on going to the gym to clear my mind & work on a healthy body overall I pray that everyone finds healing ❤️❤️🥰
Going thru this now
Had a ST elevation on my EKG couldnt drop it. Took a new one, 3 doctors confirmed it was fine and that the ST elevation couldve been a cable sitting wrong or too little water. Ofc I googled my meds escitralopram and it said they can do it but you know how meds are. Kind of getting over it now but holy moly was rough time xD
Great video, Tristan! I am currently going through a major fear of high blood pressure. Accepting and letting go is the one thing I have never done in my journey and it's extremely hard to start implementing this.
Thank you, Jayden!and thanks for being a member and supporting the channel! It means the world. Please, if you ever have questions please ask away and I will get back to you here!
What is yours at rest if you don’t mind me asking , I’m constantly going through the same thing
I’m not quite sure to be honest. I do have an at home blood pressure monitor but I put it away and don’t use it.
My fear is that since I have had this constant “anxiety for no reason” now for so long then maybe my blood pressure has been bad for a long time and the damage is done. That’s just catastrophic thinking.
Instead of trying to take my blood pressure until I see a number I like, I am instead trying to accept my anxiety and focus on lowering stress and continue with healthy lifestyle changes (eating more potassium, more cardio, meditation etc).
Hi great great man can anxiety cuse left side of the face pain and tight all the day my 3 times brain mri are normal can it be ms or facial nerve illness
Sir i am watching your videos for long. Can give me the link of SVGs you used in whiteboard animation because i want to start fashion channel. And need it. From where you download it or if you have drive link of SVGs i will very thanks full to you. God bless you❤.
I need help from this axienty am too cautious of my health breathing everything am dying
This is what I get. Even when in bed with my ear against the pillow, I could hear my heart beat. This would even make me anxious, so I would lie on back instead. I would always be checking my pulse in my neck.
I masaged my heart area and got a freaky surge of something. Was it blood pressure or adrenaline. Anyone know the difference?
During panic attacks, my heart rate can go to 130- 170 beats per minute. It can stay that way for an hour or more. This triggers off a huge anxiety, wondering if that length of time could kill me. Any facts to reassure my mind during attacks?
I feel like my spine is all jacked up mid and cervical area neck and head at times. Is that causing my constant chest pain and tightness. My left arm is numb and weak all day long. Even I get deep pains in my left arm pit. I probably have a lot of muscle imbalances because of this
Do u get skip beat? When u exercise or lift something heavy
No. I have terrible posture. Flat feet, 3 anular tears from DDD and catch myself upper chest breathing more than I like. I've been educating myself with block therapy fascia masters channel. It's helped out a lot. I wanted to juice fast for inflammation but I'm too scared to commit to the sugar levels I'll experience. So I should just add water but I keep looking at dangerous fruit and vegetables combos so I gave up so I'm just praying.
Have you ever had after a panic attack your heart beat intensity decreased and blood vessels are constricted you barely feel your heart beat
I’m there 😢and want to be free!!
I am suffering from this i think my heart gonna stop any moment i m afraid to go to sleep
Soo... i just need to accept that my anxiety and panic disorder doesn't have any treatment to recover? Hmm.
I want to recover from this

Something I’m struggling with right now I have so much tension on my chest a throat it makes me feel like I can hardly breathe it scares me I been to the doctor already for anxiety a couple months ago I have to stop the cycle myself but not trying to control let it be there till it’s gone. My symptoms constantly change but I’m finally making a change by not getting reassurance and going to the gym
Was it from anxiety

I went threw the same thing felt like it couldn’t breathe felt like I was gonna faint, and I thought that I was gonna die on the floor
How old are you when you start anxiety?
I was somewhere around 24
@@ImprovementPath do you have acid reflux before?
I'm 27. Got diagnosed with GERD at 21.. got diagnosed with minor anxiety disorder at 26. Never really got anxious or had panic attacks until I was like 24-25

Chest and back pain on waking up in the morning. The pain is exactly the same as the pain felt during the first exercise. My ECG, echo, chest x-ray All reports are normal. What causes it? I am from India
I bro same here. Mera bhi same case hai abhi bhi bhot anxiety ho rhi hai lag rha hai kuch hojaega bro. Mera bhi sab normal hai. But BP zyada ata hai doctor ke pass bass.
Struggling with this as well the last several months. I'm even worried that my heart rate has decreased down into the 50's-60's even though I've lost a lot of weight recently and have made better food/drink choices. Been having chest tightness and pain, left arm soreness and sensations... been to the ER within a couple months and everything was normal.... EKG's, blood tests, chest x-ray.... but its hard for me to let go about something being wrong since the sensations wont stop.

Stop drinking coffee for a while!

Looking back I would say that alcohol played a big part in my life. Ioved going out and to binge drink at least 3 times a week
Why is it only UA-cam content creators are cured from anxiety but not the once that are watching them. Seems weird
If you were cured you would probably not be watching this - if i were still amxious, I would probably not be making videos
95% of people who fully recover forget the have anxiety and show it 0 interest about making videos so thank this man for taking his time to help us cause once I’m fully recovered I won’t be on here
