Suggest Treatment For Heart Palpitations And Feeling Of Stress
Question: I wake earlier and earlier every morning and I feel very unsettled and worried about my life situations. throughout the day I get moments that feel like triggered reminders and I feel as though my heart is speeding up and I feel stressed but I have nothing to pinpoint as the trigger or whatnot. I need to calm down. What is going on?
Brief Answer:
probably generalised anxiety disorder.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concerns.
From the details which you have given, I think your symptoms point toward a generalised anxiety disorder.
The symptoms of anxiety (like racing heart, excessive unwanted worries) which are present for no reason are suggestive of generalised anxiety disorder.
First, you need to work according to a schedule. Divide and fix your time for every work you do. Set short-term goals and work to achieve them
Spare out time for yourself.
Practice relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation.
Understand that ups and downs are part of life. Everyone has some worries in his life.
Develop a problem-solving attitude.
Spend time with your family.
If this does not work, drug like escitalopram will help.
Hypnotics like clonazepam can help in sleeping.
Kindly consult your psychiatrist for further management and a valid prescription.
Hope this helps.
Feel free to ask further.
Thanks.
