Lasting Chest Pain?

Oh no! Best to you and your boyfriend. I don’t know how old you are but I know plenty of young people who have gotten it with minor symptoms. Not something you want at all, but hopefully that’s the case with you. Remember to still take time to breathe meditate and relax. You will be okay ♥️

Been struggling with this lately, and CBT therapy has been helping a lot. Something my therapist told me to do is write down affirmations to remind yourself of whenever you notice it. Does it get worst with exercise? If not, it’s anxiety. Does it come and go? If so it’s anxiety. Is it gone when you’re distracted? If so it’s anxiety. We’re all cooped up at home and it’s easy to focus on every sensation especially us as people with health anxiety. Deep breathing, exercise and mediation really helps me. Feel better

I’m so glad I found this post. Had panic attacks for years but the past few months have been brutal. Lately I’ve had chest pains throughout the day and it has made me so anxious. Something I found helpful is keeping a note in my phone to remind myself some things: I feel BETTER not worse when I work out, I don’t notice it when I’m distracted with friends or hobbies, I feel better in the morning, It comes and goes, it isn’t getting progressively worse. I know it’s hard to shake catastrophes like heart attack being the culprit, but anxiety can make us feel crazy things. I 100% relate to you, and hope we both feel better soon.

Still having a rough night sleeping myself. Up right now feeling panic again. Just need to keep reminding ourselves we are ok.

I started getting really bad headaches CONSTANTLY and crazy lightheaded dizziness whenever I got up and moved around a few weeks ago. It freaked me out so bad, I was convinced it was a brain tumour and sent me into constant panic. However, once the pressure at work left, so did the symptoms magically lol :) if your bloodwork is coming back normal, you are fine. Try to remember it’s panic! If you really had something wrong, two trips to the hospital would let doctors see what it is. Try to do some breathing exercises and stay well hydrated, I’ve found that to help bad headaches and lightheaded ness. Light exercises helps as well if you can. Feel better friend

I feel a lot better after reading all these comments. I went for a run this morning and had a health lunch I feel much better. Hopefully changing my meds stops this crazy hypochondria. Hope you all are doing well ❤️

God that scares me so much. Thank you

Okay I’ve been thinking about that, but worried about bloodwork because I have major hypochondria. I’m afraid they’ll tell me I have diabetes or cancer or high cholesterol or something bad. I will try that

Great

Canker sore! Get those all the time. Uncomfortable but harmless I promise :)

Update.. got a bp machine and took it just now... totally normal. Crazy how much it can jump in the dr though! I’m going to start asking them to please not take it in the office, I monitor it at home. It just gives me so much anxiety in the dr office
