Stress and anxiety giving pain

Posted , 1 user is following.

Hello,

a few days ago, I had a major anxiety attack. Since then, I have a feeling of pressure/burning in the middle of the chest and dizziness that does not go away and does not improve. It feels like I am about to faint but never do. I also feels super tired. I have pain in my arms and chest.

Could these symptoms be related to stress? Thank you.

    Sorry to hear you're getting that way. I too had all sorts of uncomfortable sensations throughout my body after experiencing high levels of anxiety over the last 18 months. Try some self-help strategies to get you going and consider speaking to your GP if it's getting too much. I found the Mind website helpful.
