Is it hyperthyroid?: If hyperthyroid, your anxiety and possibly the heart sensitivity are due to this underlying condition. Aggressively treating the thyroid should alleviate the anxiety - eventually. In the mean time there are other anxiolytics, a wide array. One can certainly be found different from what you initially tried - and yet be very effective and well-tolerated. Assumes that heart rhythm simple tachycardia.

You need: : Workup of general medical issues (thyroid, cardiac), psychiatric exam for identification/addressing of intrapsychic/psychosocial issues with psychotherapy and use of community resources/support systems available & psychopharmacoeducation because "generalization" with anticipated response to medications per past experience limits the biopsychosocial approach/effectiveness. Consider biofeedback.
