房颤是一种不规则的心跳,通常又称为 AFib。
AFib 与压力、焦虑和抑郁之间的关系十分复杂。一些研究表明,这些心理健康状况的症状与 AFib 的风险存在关联。其他研究却显示无关联。
例如,一些研究表明:
- 感到抑郁或焦虑可能会引起 AFib
- 与工作相关的愤怒情绪或压力可能会引起 AFib
- 焦虑会增加出现 AFib 的风险
但一项针对心律正常人群的大型研究表明,焦虑和严重抑郁并不会增加出现 AFib 的风险。需要更多的研究来了解二者之间任何可能的联系。
压力和焦虑水平高可能增加出现许多健康问题的风险。因此,管理压力对良好的整体健康状况很重要。如果您有 AFib,医务人员可能会建议您做出健康的生活方式选择,以保持心脏健康。医务人员可能能够帮助您更好地管理 AFib 的症状。
管理压力和焦虑的方法包括:
- 定期运动。
- 瑜伽。
- 练习正念减压法。
- 尝试通过呼吸练习平静心率。
- 与互助小组的其他人建立联系。
- 与支持您的家人和朋友共度时光。
- 健康饮食。
- 保持积极的态度。
如果您出现抑郁或焦虑的症状,请咨询医务人员。这些症状包括持续性忧伤或忧虑感、难以集中注意力以及对大多数活动失去兴趣。可能会将您转诊给在心理健康状况领域受过专业培训的医务人员(心理医生或精神科医生)。
