I just woke up worried about work probably and worried about pink spit that I'm having now and sick at my stomach and my pulse is like 128 last night when I went to bed it was like 110 ugh trying to do my deep breathing and not worry. today is also the day we find out about my little sister's health condition but not till late this afternoon. anyway how high does your hr get with anxiety? the highest mine ever gets is like what it is right now 130 and that's high anxiety.maybe I'm dehydrated too I always think the worst not a good thing.I keep waiting to outgrow this lol

Mines gotten to 180 when having a panic attack..very scary stuff. I've heard that a structurally healthy heart can beat at 200 bmp for days without causing any real harm..that always makes me feel better when my pulse gets high for a bit during anxiety.

Also just wanted to add that mine gets well over 100bmp just after eating a meal! I like to think of my heart as a *itchy diva..she's always giving me some kinda bullcrap lol

LOL, G!

Hazel, the highest mine ever got during a panic attack was 150. My resting heart rate without anxiety is somewhere in the 70's or low 80's. When I'm stressed it hangs in the upper 80's or 90's.

My pulse has gotten to 180 during panic attacks also , when I'm sick my heart rate gets high also , after eating it goes up I don't even eat out when we go to restaurants cuz I don't Want anxiety so I just order side of veggies no big meals for me , I do take a beta blocker on a daily basis because my anxiety Is related to my high pulse , so when I I have my attacks I always carry it with me. 130 during panic attacks is not bad at all , it's uncomfortable for sure but I wouldn't say it's high .
I hope you get better soon

Mine gets to 180ish. Stress and anxiety will raise if but won't harm it!
