Been really horrible the last couple of days

Posted , 6 users are following.

Hey guys , hope yous are all ok smile , so these last couple of days my anxiety has increased ever more with pains in my chest my lower back and of course my heart racing die to worrying about these wee occurrences. My aunty who is a nurse tells me it is just anxiety. I want to believe the doctors etc but due to my ever increasing anxiety , I just can't seem to want to believe them. I have a visible pulse in my stomach and I just wish for it to be gone so I didn't need to worry. But it is a cruel game as every time I am thinking and worrying , problems are occurring ever more like pain in my muscles , back pain , chest pain, stomach pain etc. I always think when I have heart palpitations etc is it a death sentence and my heart is not in good health but I have been for an ECG and have got the all clear but I don't understand why I don't want to believe the doctors. I'm 16 and it is taking over my life and I feel that for the last 5 months , I have been spending my life honking about these kind of things happening and it is really hard. I also get pain under my ribs both right and left and it is quite consistent but I take deep breaths a lot and this could just be muscle train from my chest. Hope yous can help

      Yeah well that makes me feel a little better , yeah I am suffering from really bad headaches to , it's not that , I am limited to the amount of doctors up here as I live in the west coast of Scotland in a small town of Arisaig lol but since my age my aunt and the doctors just say it's nothing to worry about because I'm so young so fingers crossed. Yeah this is what I do on a day to day basis I am so bad at googling symptoms sad do you get dizzy and feel weak and faint ?

      I can't even focus on my schoolwork cuz it hurts so badly sometimes. I've been eating healthy, drinking water, and I've been exercising a lot too.

      Maybe from somthing that happened in your past that was extremely stressful..a total of life events can caus it.

      But I used to get frequent heartburn when I was 12. I was very happy, had a lot of friends, a great family. I took Zantac and it helped.
