Tired and anxious

[littleone123]

I'm feeling really tired today and it's bringing on some panic feelings and little heart palps and I don't know how to stop them. I have noticed they come about lunch time so I eat but it don't make them go away? Any advice

Hi Littleone. Yes, don't give the heart palpitations too much importance. In most cases, heart palpitations are harmless and are very often a symptom of anxiety. Realize that emotions come and go and that you're not always going to feel anxious like this. Try to be an impassive observer of your anxiety symptoms. Just let them happen without catastrophizing. I know heart palpitations are unsettling, but, again, in the vast majority of cases they're harmless.
