Very helpful tips. Here is a few more if you do not mind. I do cognitive therapy training for individuals with an addiction. Anxiety, stress, is one of the major causes of addiction. A few brief things you can remember. Thoughts = Feelings= Behavior A person is what they think all day; Garbage in Garbage out When things start going crazy start writing out an agenda. It helps sort things out. Thanks for letting me help. Marlene Excellant article on anxiety. Very helpful tips. Here is a few more if you do not mind.

But the pain didnt go away. i told my mom about it and the next day she took me to a walk in clinic to get checked out. after i told the doctor what i was going through he wanted to do an EKG, and the results were normal. that night on the way home I started to feel like i couldnt breath and i started tingling all over, numbness through my body and my heart was beating very fast... it was terrible i had never been through anything like that before in my life and i was sure i was about to die. My mom called 911 and i was rushed to the emergency room. the doctors checked my blood pressure, blood sugar, urine, thyroid, did another EKG and also a chest X-ray, all results were 100 percent normal. I returned home from the hospital around 1 oclock that night. the next day i was so weak i didnt want to move, my heart fealt like it was beating harder than normal and i didnt want anything to eat. but more than anything i didnt want to be alone. since then ive only had one more attack like that, and both times i was in the back seat of a car(maybe that has somthing to do with it) and i make myself feel terrible because every little pain i get i make myself think somthing is very wrong and i start to freak out. Ive been back to the walk in clinic once more since then and after checking my nose and throat they tell me i have terrible allergies, my nose was almost swollen sut and i have cobblestones in the back of my throat. So that explains why i felt like i couldnt breath very well. since then ive regained my strength and i eat like i should. but i still have a chest pain every now and again, my heart feels like its still beating faster than normal, a nagging headache and shortness of breath sometimes and now when i feel an attack coming on i know how to control it. So, can you help me? is this anxiety? and am i the only one going through this? hello, my name is Lee Lewis and im a 20 year old male. 2 or so months back i started having chest pains.. mainly on the left side, but i tried to ignore it and get on with my life.
