thumpin heartbeat


22 years ago 0 239 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
My heart races too. The only way to slow it down is to calm down. I hate saying that cause it’s so hard to calm down when you’re panicking! What I do when I’m in public and my heart starts to flutter and pound. I force myself to breathe slowly, concentrating on moving my stomach muscles and not my chest. Hope this helps a bit, take care.
