Rapid Heartbeat After Watching Horror Content. What Can Ease Her Heart?
My mother felt rapid heartbeat after watching horror pics on some website.. She is not a cardiac patient. we tried to relax her. Though she is conscious but heart beat is on the same pace.. its very fast palpitation .. Kindly tell me about some first aid and any food or something for immediate effects before we get her to hospital.

Hello
thanks for the query.
She has developed symptoms of anxiety disorder.
Heart beat is fast due excessive adrenaline production.
She needs anti anxiety medication like diazepam.
Please meet a physician.
