I just watch a rerun of season 4 and feel so bad for Matt. He's stuck in that room with that guy blatantly passing gas and Matt just sits there and takes it. Then, when Matt tries to be nice and pee's in a cup to be quiet to the cellmate, the cellmate calls him out and humiliates him in front of everyone! And then, when Matt tries to talk to him the cellmate humiliates him again in front of everyone. Matt thinks everything is over when the cellmate leaves the pod, but another inmate was quick to check Matt about peeing in a cup. Then Matt leaves early! At the reunion, Matt then has there as all the other cast mates watch the video and laugh. And then when they do a "where are they now?" his daughters didn't give him any sympathy either. When Matt laments on how the experience changed him and how he's traumatized, his daughters are like "I don't care. You chose to do it" -- It just seems like it was a terrible experience all around

I've had PVC's for years but trigeminy was never really an issue until recently. I've had a few episodes of them when I'm extremely exited about something or extremely stressed about something. I was at the casino the other night and I was on a rare winning streak. I both frustrated and excited but mainly excited so my heart was pounding -- Beat Beat Beat (pause) Beat Beat (pause) beat beat beat (pause). It was a total joy killer. I had to sit down and calm down and then they went away.

Don't blame me for the redactions because I saved them from a post on Facebook. Anyway, here's the account if you want to go see it directly Titanic TX

I have various types of sensations when having a PVC:

Every 6 of weeks or so I'll have a 5-10 second moment where my heart feels like it's "resetting" -- Beat, Beat, pause, Beat, pause, Beat Beat Beat pause, (back to normal)

About once a month, when I'm stressed/feel intense pressure to get something done in a hurry or after I've finished a workout, my heart will pound and skip BAM BAM BAM BAM (pause) BAM BAM (pause) BAM BAM BAM (pause) BAM BAM (back to normal) *I've notice that I'm usually not breathing very well when I'm stressed and even stop breathing while I'l doing an intense set.

Rarely, when laying on my right side, I will also get skipped beats - though they're very mild and the episodes lasts about 5 seconds.

Very rarely (once every 3-4 months), my heart will just speed up out of nowhere and beat really fast. The episode usually lasts about 20-30 seconds and has even happened in my sleep.

Anxiety will someone cause me to have the sudden "heart drop" feeling. But, those are almost no existent these days as I have gotten a better handle on the anxiety.

*I had never heard of dysthymia until this moment - I posted this in a PVC group and was referred here but I'm glad to have been. PVCs are skipped heartbeats, flutters, etc* Does anyone else feel incredibly depressed, lonely or have a lack of love in their life whether it's from a partner or from family? I grew up in an unstable environment, bouncing around from home to home. I don't have family or a partner or even very many friends. I put on a good face - if I have a job to do then I get it done and on time. Nobody knows how severely depressed at am - sometimes, it's debilitating. I have no real purpose in life. When I was younger the future felt so bright and that kept me going. Now, I'm not working for anything - not striving or anything. There's no real purpose for me being here. There's an actual pain that comes with depression. Like an ache. I've seen studies about the negative effects of depression and loneliness on the heart. Could these things cause PVCs?

My PVCs began a few weeks after recovering from Covid-19 back in late 2021. The PVCs use to be wrapped in severe anxiety attacks, so when I had a PVC, the anxiety attack that came with it were debilitating. The anxiety was in large part due to the fact that I had not been diagnosed as having PVCs - I just knew I was having sensations in my heart and they were really freaking me out. Finally, I went to the ER and did and they found nothing. I wore a Holter monitor for 2 weeks and that's when they determined it was PVCs. Nothing to worry about, they said. That news helped me to overcome the anxiety I had surrounding them, which has been great. And, the reduction in that anxiety cut down on the number of them I was having. But, I still really hate having them and they still worry me. I get depressed after I have one and desperately want to go back to the way things were before covid. Anyway, mine are pretty rare - every couple of weeks, but they seem to have mutated over the years. About every two weeks, I'll have a 5-10 second episode where it feels like my heart is malfunctioning - trying to figure out what to do (flutters around, skips, then it's like it "resets".) About once every 3 months or so, I'll wake up and my heart will be racing but will calm down shortly after. Other times, like during exercise or if I'm super stressed, my heart will race and skip. BAM BAM BAM BAM.... BAM.... BAM BAM.... BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM... BAM...BAM BAM BAM. And this will go on for a minute or a few minutes. It really freaks me out. I have noticed that when it does that, I'm usually not breathing very well (I'll sometime stop breathing as I'm doing push ups for something reason or, if I'm stressed, I seem to hold my breath or take insanely shallow breaths). Just wanted to put my experience out there to see if anyone else can relate.

I've been dealing with PVC's since I got Covid several years ago. Before I knew what they were they freaked me out far worse because I would have them my frequently and they would be wrapped in severe anxiety. I still hate them but after I got a diagnosis I was able to rid myself of the anxiety attacks around them and they also became less frequent. Now, my PVC's are pretty rare - every couple of weeks or so but they can be more frequent if I'm really stressed out. That was the case over the past couple of days - feeling very frustrated about some things going on in life. About 20 minutes ago, I had an episode for about 5-10 seconds of my heart feeling like it was going crazy. Now, I don't feel frustrated anymore. In fact, I feel really relaxed and good. It's almost like a "reset" -- Does anyone else ever feel like this?
