Congestive Heart Failure: What Causes It? (CHF)
Congestive heart failure happens when your body's blood pumping capacity is insufficient to satisfy the demands of the body. Our heart's primary duty is to circulate blood throughout our bodies. Congestive heart failure symptoms appear when our hearts' ability to pump and circulate blood is compromised.
What causes heart failure with congestive heart failure?
Congestive heart failure can occur for a variety of reasons:
Heart Attack and Coronary Artery Disease
Ischemic cardiomyopathy is the most common cause of congestive heart failure. When a coronary artery is completely clogged by cholesterol/calcium plaque or a blood clot, the blood supply to the heart muscle is cut off. This causes the heart muscle to weaken, which can lead to congestive heart failure.
Disorders of the Heart Valve
The heart valve's job is to allow blood to flow forward by opening and shutting with each heartbeat to prevent blood from seeping backwards. If the heart valve does not function properly, the heart's ability to push blood forward is reduced, and congestive heart failure may result.
Viruses
A "viral cardiomyopathy" can be caused by a common cold, the flu, or mono. The virus targets the heart muscle cells directly in certain disorders, causing the heart muscle to deteriorate. Some persons with the disorders may not experience any cardiac damage, but others who are susceptible may.
Alcohol
Heavy alcohol drinking can cause cardiac muscle cells to be damaged and weakened.
Genetics
Congestive heart failure can also be caused by genetic abnormalities that cause the heart to weaken. If you are young and healthy, yet your family members show indicators of heart failure, you may have a genetic heart condition.
Arrhythmias
If your heart beats too rapidly or too slowly, it will be unable to pump blood adequately, resulting in congestive heart failure. You should go to the top heart hospital in Jaipur for cardiac surgery.
Heart-related stress
If your heart has to beat very hard and very fast on a regular basis, it may give up. A rare condition known as "stress induced cardiomyopathy" occurs when an individual experiences acute emotional disturbance as a result of a rapid stress, resulting in transient cardiac weakness
Idiopathic
When congestive heart failure has an unknown origin, it is called "idiopathic cardiomyopathy."
Heart Failure with Diastolic Diastolic Diastolic Diastolic
Congestive heart failure occurs when the heart's strength remains constant but it fails to relax, resulting in a reduction in the heart's overall output. The main causes of these rare illnesses, known as "restrictive cardiomyopathies," are long-term high blood pressure or heart ageing.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

Cabin Fever Because of Snow, Sleet, and Freezing Rain That Turned to Icy Roads
What Is Cabin Fever? The short answer is that cabin fever is restlessness from being in a confined area. Cabin fever is the distressing irritability or restlessness experienced when a person or group is stuck at an isolated location or in confined quarters for an extended time. Research shows that prolonged cold, gray skies, and being stuck indoors can trigger mood shifts similar to “winter blues.”

Killing him slowly
There’s an intruder in my house again. He stumbles through the door, wet carrier bags in hand. He’s bought me offerings. I show my appreciation, letting him caress my beautiful body. He wants to touch me. I rub myself against his legs. He sighs, dropping the bags. He can’t resist touching me. Running his hand slowly down my spine, I arch my back towards his caress, let out a low purr. It’s what we both need.
