Doctors warn of Broken Heart Syndrome and its triggers

We're putting a focus tonight on an illness called Broken Heart Syndrome. It’s a real health condition that might feel like a heart attack and local doctors want you to know what to watch for.

Ive had this. I experienced so much trauma and loss in such a short period of time that my heart was literally in pain and I felt a lot of pressure and heaviness in my chest for several months. Praying for everyone.

My dad passed 2 weeks after my mother. He died of broken heart. He couldn’t handle it. I had to plan 2 funerals back to back.😔🥺😭😭😖😣I’m trying my hardest to stay strong

I think I had this once after a very particular break-up. It came out of nowhere and shook me to my core. After it, I took relationships less serious, enjoying them while they last. As sad as it sounds but that tremendously helped my mental health. Other people are not worth a heart attack no matter how close they are to you.

Been living with this for years. Thought it was gonna kill me eventually. But then I started to stop caring about things I should care about. Now I'm bitter and cold hearted, but at least it's still beating...

I learned about this after seeing my mother murdered. Its been 4 years, I may never be the same. I think it takes a lot of time to heal, different for each person. I went from 86 pounds to 103, I can walk a mile without stopping, I've improved greatly...but forever 💔. I'll keep healing but a part of me will always be broken. That doesn't mean I won't stop trying to find the good in life each day. Life is precious, I almost lost mine too. Hugs to anyone who wants one. Strange coincidence this news pops up on my YouTube at this time-her birthday is tomorrow. The timing is eerie. I know she wouldn't want me to be so affected I couldn't function for a while but I think she would be proud now.

This is me constantly losing everything I care about in life.

I know what it feels like. When I lost both of my kids.

A man who lost his wife in the Uvalde school shooting died of a broken heart. It's depressing.

Carrie Fisher's mother also died one day after she died, likely of a broken heart.

Financial Stress taking care of a family is a factor in today's economy.

After being beyond stressed and forced to move last minute as well as really strong feelings for someone that didn't work out, and other medical issues regarding my liver and colon, I've recently started to experience PVCs.

I'm currently dealing with it. I don't know what to do

[BenWebster]

I have a friend that has this condition and it helps me understand it a little bit better so thank you for posting this

I DON'T CARE WHO YOU ARE, IF YOU HAVE THIS, DONT FORGET TO CRY. There's no shame in it. It was created for you as a release of negative forces.

someone I love is moving away and I feel this now. My heart hurts so much :(

Hey guys this is a very scary and life threatening condition
But not to worry
The best way to recover is by drinking olive oil everyday because it well protect the heart from cardiovascular mortality
Also it will take some time to recover but it's possible
I advise to weight train or exercise every day
And change your diet eat plenty of fruits and vegetables
Wine is ok but in moderation
Also exercising will combat stress everyday
The olive oil should be real from a glass bottle avoid plastic bottle
And also take vitamins that support the heart health
Your body might be in pain so take Tylenol
When you survive and get better you will know
Just strengthen your heart each day and do not look back
Best of luck
🤲 🙏 🤲 🙏

I remember the 3rd night after my last breakup as "The night I almost died" because I swear I felt a chest pain I had never ever felt. Not even when my grandparents passed away. I isolated myself for an hour. It took me an hour to calm down enough. Honestly, I'm not sure if it's worth loving as much if it means I could get hit with this again. I honestly don't know if I can physically tolerate it again.

[WhitneyMcDuck]

I felt this when I lost my grandfather and my parents which almost resulted in a heart attack. It's absolutely devastating.
