Is this normal during an orgasm?
M22 - I developed cardiophobia about 7 months ago. At the time I had a echocardiogram, several ECGs, and a 24+ hour Holter monitor, all of which were normal.
For about two months I was very anxious, even afraid to walk, after noticing a fast heart rate at rest (90-100) with no other symptoms. The anxiety gradually improved and the beats stabilized too, but I still tend to worry about my heart even if I forgot the main reason that caused me all this, possibly also worsened by stomach issues and bloating after meals.
I haven’t fully returned to masturbation yet. I used to do it regularly, but now I still feel hesitant. When I do, I sometimes notice a strong, fast heartbeat during and just after orgasm for about 10–15 seconds, which then settles. I’d like to know if this is normal, because before I didn't notice it at all, I wouldn't want that not doing it as much as before more adrenaline than usual is concentrated and this causes everything
