chest feelings and pains with anxiety

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi all

I was wondering if anxiety suffers could explain some of the chest feelings or pain they get in chest

Me

Central crushing pain between breasts

Sharp pain left side

Fluttery feelings

Vibration feeling

A drop in heart feeling

Heart stopping feeling

And a weird wave feeling lasts seconds and causes electric shock feeling in hands

Anyone else have similar or others

Thanks

    I get the fluttering chill like feeling in my chest, drop in heart feeling, I only get the chest pain once in a while but I do get the weird wave feeling that causes electric shock/tickle feeling in hand. I had it alot today actually and didn't think anyone else had it

      Sometimes I get cold sensations and sometimes a warm sensation it's really weird. Do you get the weakness feeling in your arm/hand when you get the weird wave/electric shock tickle like feeling in your hand ? It's so hard to believe that anxiety can do all this. I have had 2 panic attacks today and it feels like it's never ending sad

      Yh I do get that its the strangest thing ever I dont get panic attacks at all but think I must be in constant state of anxiety or something no doctor has said tho but it must be I'm waiting to have holter monitor because I have a weird racing heart rate on standing and walking it goes from 70 sitting to 150 standing but I've had a test for heart disease and that's clear they think I need testing for spasms in coronary artery but its taking so long to get tests done and everyday I get this weird feeling and sense that I'm dying it scares the life outta me do u get that feeling? Even if you are calm ? X

      Yes, I get the feeling when I'm trying to relax alot. I had anxiety for years but never panic attacks until 6 weeks ago. I thought i was dying and had no idea what they were. I almost called 911 they scared me so bad it was the worst feeling ever. Every weird feeling or sensation sends me into a panic. Then I start googling symproms and convince myself I have all these terrible things and m6 anxiety has been out of control. I can't cope . I get new symtpoms all the time. I had a panic attack the other night and it felt like I couldn't swallow my face was tingly and my tongue tingled for a second. I was lightheaded had clammy hands and felt like I was going to faint. It's so hard to believe anxiety can make us feel so bad which makes it even worse

      You poor thing having it for so long and so bad I have had days when I was convinced I was going to die and days when I wished I would even though my biggest fear is dying before I raise my kids to adults that's how bad it can make you feel I feel like all my bones are grating together in my back tonight everytime I move that's new and scaring the life out of me but I think if it wasn't for those horrible thoughts and feelings of I'm dying constantly even when relaxed I could handle the pain I can't handle the mental side of it I can't believe my mind is tricking me it feels to real and I don't know how to stop it its to hard sometimes I think I wish it would go away I try everything as well its crazy how much it takes over your life I wish I could cure us all x

      How long have you suffered from anxiety? I have had it on and off for years but I always just coped with it until 6 weeks ago it got really bad. I am a single mom too and it's really hard bc no one understands anxiety/panic if they don't have it.

      I have had it since march I had a operation and several panic attacks after which I think turned into this

      Ur right no one understands at all I jus so badly want someone to say hey I had all those feelings in chest an guess what they ain't dangerous so my mind will let me sleep without fear of not waking up its exhausting isn't it I barely cope at all
