I am a 22 year old woman. It all started a few months ago when I was under a lot of stress, I was taking a very strong antibiotic because of an inflammation of one fallopian tube. Due to the high dose, it affected my body very badly and along with the stress I started getting a palpitation accompanied by skipping. I didn't know what was happening and I went to a cardiologist, who told me that I had a healthy heart, it was just out of rhythm, it was beating faster (so-called sinus tachycardia). I drank some magnesium supplements and some herbal sedatives. One night while I was resting, this jump was repeated along with endurance, shortness of breath and hot flashes. I thought I was dying, I even called an ambulance. When they came, they told me that everything was fine, even my heart rate was completely normal then. From that day on, things started to get worse mentally, and from there I started with the physical symptoms: pain, palpitations, feeling of suffocation, fear of suffocation while sleeping, tingling, hot flushes. I went to doctors again, blood tests, cardiograms and all sorts of other things ... They tell me you have palpitations, most likely caused by anxiety. I don't smoke, I haven't licked alcohol since then, I stopped coffee, I stopped soda, I try to eat healthier. I just never thought about it before, and now I wake up and fall asleep with it, it prevents me from living normally, my Google story must be full of diseases and symptoms, and it all started from that heart. Now my head hurts, my temperature rises and I start thinking about the worst. I'm considering going to the doctor again in a month. You will say that there is no need, everything is in my head, but when I feel it physically, I go crazy. I am 22 years old and I feel 80. Every day social networks are flooded with negativity and this has just got under my skin. Tell me how to deal with this, should I seek a psychologist?

Seek a psychiatrist and he / she will decide how to proceed. You are not hypochondriac, just panic attacks. But over time, this can happen. At the moment you have to treat PA, they are your problem, don't bother.
Yes, you are hypochondriac. It is clear where it came from, but the way out is only in your hands. It's all in your head and actually when you think about it, you stare at it, you read all sorts of things on the internet, you will also have physical symptoms. If you are told that your heart is physically healthy, then it is so and YOU need to change your way of perceiving everything that is happening around you. You stop reading on the Internet, you stop listening to your heart beat, you start going out, reading, watching movies, doing things that you love and that affect you well. Most likely, your words are easy to influence - find the right literature and start training your brain to think correctly. It is very difficult, but with perseverance there is also success. Yoga classes are extremely useful in this case. I was just like you,
Panic attacks. You think you're going to die. You need more nature, less tension and according to some medications, I haven't drunk yet, I hope not. Get an herbal remedy, such as a remover or something of the sort that you think helps. You need more walking. Alcohol is the enemy, even though you forget when you drink, but 1-2 beers, for example, or 1-2 small ones are okay, the point is not to overdo it, it will come out of your nose. You can also consult a doctor, but in general you have to wait for him to pass. Realize what it is, and wait for it to pass. I can help you if you want to call me. He thinks that all this will stop, will pass, you will not be like that forever, you will recover. He thinks you're healthy, the doctors and the equipment aren't lying, and it's all in your head, really. I didn't express myself very well, I hope you understood me! convoy
I will tell you something trivial, but true - body posture can affect the heart. The heart is innervated by the so-called vagus nerve, which can be bent at a certain posture. Another option for influencing the posture is if you are overeating and leaning forward, the stomach can press the diaphragm, and she - the heart and feel the jumps. I've found this in myself, I've talked to doctors and other people, and that's it - something very simple like the posture of our body can affect our heart. I don't know if this is the case with you, I'm just sharing something that made me worry some time ago.
If you believe everything you read - stop reading;)
Go for a run or walk 5 km a day. Find someone to fuck you and things will be fine in 1 month.
