    Oh and Mindy...

    Heart palpitations can be caused by anxiety. I get them too!

    My brother has them and was just diagnosed with anxiety just like me! He says he generally feels like something bad is about to happen all them time, and chose to take medication for it. I used to be on Celexa but I don't take it anymore. Anxiety can run in the family. Whatever is in our genetics make us predisposed to have whatever is in the brain that causes anxiety or at least contributes to it. The thing is, so many people around the world have an anxiety disorder, when anxiety is really supposed to be a healthy reaction to when we're threatened, the flight or fight response but it misfires for us folks with anxiety. It's horrible! Is there something, or lack of, in our food system? It makes me wonder.
