How long do your anxiety symptoms last?

Minutes, Days, Weeks Etc.

Most of mine very, but I have had this dull constant ache near my left shoulder blade and spine that seems to spread into my chest sometimes. Of course it scares me but I have been to the ER many times and had every heart test possible. I've also had other tests to rule other issues. So I Have been told its anxiety but I cannot get rid of it. I feel like I am missing out on enjoying life right now because the pain is always there.

    hi heather i understand and gone through the same exact thing.

    when my anxiety comes, i feel pain on my left arm that spreads to my chest and neck. went to the ER soooo many times , all results ECG all is normal.

    from where i come from, doctors at the ER dont really speak about mental health.. so they always just discharge me with paracil which never works.

    this sensation can last me for days infact weeks!

    i used to think anxiety is only a few minutes or a day but i guess it can last for days/weeks.

    hope you feeling better x
