CardioPhobia?

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello,

This is my first time posting in the forums. I wanted to ask people in here about my anxiety disorder. Just to give you a brief rundown about my current situation. I contracted Covid in January 2021. As I learned about my positive result, a great deal of anxiety took over me. Since then, I have had a pounding heart, almost feels like an earthquake rocking me. This has been non stop every time I lay down or if I sit. I wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue. I have seen several Doctors and I have had several different diagnostic tests performed all of which come back normal. My GP tells me it is anxiety. If anyone has experienced this what did you do to get better? Its been 9 months and I am trying my best to get over this. Thank you!
