Hey everyone,

I've been having pretty bad health anxiety these last few days. When I wake up in the morning/from a nap I'm fine until I get moving along with my day. The chest pain has been pretty bad, I push on my chest and it makes the muscles in my chest ache, so I think that rules out a heart attack, at least I'm hoping.

Whenever I walk around lately, I've been super aware of my breathing. It also feels like my chest is super constricted and I can't get a good breath. If I try and take my mind off of it and get distracted, I don't really notice. It's driving me nuts. I'm just so worried about dropping dead and in the middle of a 4 day long heart attack.

For the past two years I've been in the ER multiple times and have had 8 ECGs and whatnot. All told me I'm fine. I'm pretty overweight, but working on it. I'm 30 and I've been told I'm way too young to be thinking about this. It just sucks.

Sorry if this makes little sense. I'm at wits end. Could use some help.

Thank you for your time.
