Fuck, nothing scares me more than heart attacks. They just sneak up on you and have a high chance of being fatal even if you’re hospitalized early
you must have not have dealt with aggressive unstoppable neurodegenerative diseases
It’s not a competition, not sure why you thought that from OP’s comment.
The number one of symptom of heart disease is death. You could be a completely normal person that just did a crazy 6 month long Pacific Crest Trail hike but you could fall dead the next day. So yeah, it’s scary. But so is ALS or Alzheimer’s.
Someone I work with died just a few weeks ago from one. Working with him all day and nothing was wrong, in the evening he just lost consciousness and they couldnt resuscitate him. He never even smoked and wasn’t overweight or anything. Mad how they can happen so fast.
It can happen to the healthiest of people ofcourse, but you can lower the chances by taking care of yourself.
Go to the gym, try to simmer down on those really unhealthy habits.
Enjoy life and don’t make yourself miserable, but taking care of yourself every now and then can get you a long way!
