Is there something wrong with my heart?
I'm 15 years old (boy) and when I was 13 I had Splenectomy (Removal of Spleen) because my brother pulled me down the stairs, made me turn and hit the bannister at the bottom of the stairs. Now I don't know if these are heart murmurs, but somethings my heart does an odd beat or something, then it comes back to normal but really fast. Say when I'm resting in bed, at random times, it's like I feel it in my body, sometimes it happens twice a day, sometimes no times a day, but recently a lot over the past say.. month? I don't have any heart problems as far as I recall but I'm not sure!
I'm scared that I'm going to have a heart attack.
Those beats don't bring pain, they just feel weird, irritating and uncomfortable. I do admit, I was watching p--- the other night when this beat came, then my heart kept beating fast for a bit, I was really scared, I couldn't sleep for hours.. can someone tell me if I should worry? I actually want to watch duhduhduh now but I'm so scared, why is my life so bad what have I done, I'm gay, I hardly have any friends and my brother is better than me at everything, except drumming and computers. Tennis, basketball, football, making friends, letting people like him, you name it he can do it and I can't do a thing, I cry every night because of this. (off-topic sorry)
I have thought of killing myself/committing suicide a few times but I'm scared for my family. It's just that my life is so unperfect and I think my health isn't good (I eat healthy, I exercise occasionally and I'm not fat) but I don't feel right. When those beats happen it makes me want to breathe in, it's like it quickly steals my air for a second, that's what makes me notice it.

I don’t think for one minute that you are going to have a heart attack, my Dad had one last year, and you don’t have heart attack symptoms. I do know however, that if you’re worried, scared, or stressed out about something, then that can do weird things to you body, like feeling that your heart is skipping a beat, feeling that its not beating right, and its like a vicious circle. Why not tell your Mum or Dad that you’re worried about it, maybe see the doc just to put your mind at rest. Try not to worry, calm your breathing down by doing deep breathing for a few minutes.
im 15 too. My aunt died when she was 5 with a weak heart. My heart skips a beat sometimes, or slows down and speeds up. Porn probably would make your heart beat faster, but not make you have a heart murmur! Do your hands and feet get cold? Do you feel weak? You may have a weak heart. I suggest going to the doctors. Becaause you are young, your heart is less likely to give in as easily, but still go to the doctors. I know how you feel, ive had all the brother is better thing as well, my bro is 18. I was always the geeky, clever one, with hardly any friends at all, and loads of enemies. But ive changed and become stronger mentally. You’ll be ok!
Go to the doctors!
Get it sorted out!
Hello there,
I don’t think you are going to have a heart attack. Sometimes the heart misses a beat and then does an extra strong one to make up for it. That is the most likely cause of the problem. Some exercise often helps, so don’t stop watching the porn if you want to watch it.
It does sound as if you have a difficult relationship with your brother. If you can, I would find someone to talk to about things. If there is a lot of pent-up frustration and anger, that can affect your heart, but do remember that the heart is amazingly strong, and you are not going to have a heart attack. Hope you’re not screwed up about the gay feelings….it might be just a bit early to know how things will work out. You sound rather low too, but can’t really go into that here….just try to have a talk to an older friend or counsellor. Good luck.
Have you ever considered praying to god?
Life sucks dude, and it always will.
And don’t envy other people, it’s not good for you. everybody’s good at something.
i know how u feel but it’s highly unlikely to be a heart attack, and don’t get too worked up about your brother!! you probably have something that you could be so much better than at than him!! try different sorts of things that maybe you havn’t considered trying! hope it helps
