Hello everyone,
it all started October last year. After a night of drinking with some friends at a music show, we got together at a restaurant to eat. I ordered a beer and some buffalo chicken wings. As soon as I took a bite of the wing, it hit me...i felt this terrible weight in my chest and that I could not breathe. I had tunnel vision and sweaty hands but i attributed all of this to my hangover. This was all new to me (never had panic attacks or anxiety before). I was scared so I called my girlfriend while i was driving home. I tried to sleep it off, and the next morning I woke up fine. days went by and my stomach started bothering me until I had another panic attack while eating a cookie. I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with gastritis and H. Pylori. I started treatment and months went by but the anxiety remains...I lost over 40 pounds in 3 months since I could not eat(every time i took a bite) I'd get an anxiety attack...ive gottenridof the bacteria inmy stomach but the panic attacks and anxiety still remain...now they even haven when i go out or drive..it's gotten so bad that i cannot leave my house without feeling anxious. Wanted to know if anyone had developed this anxiety after having stomach problems? I used to be a healthy guy working out everyday, traveled the world alone and was very friendly...now i cant even hang out with my friends...any feedback would be appreciated..Ive tried pills but im not a strong believer of them...
