Hello, i just got my anxiety problems a week ago any advice would help. So im 18 years old and got alot of stress in my life. Lack of self-confidence, in the way i think im ugly and i will die alone and stuff like that. I never had an girlfriend, and i dont feel comfortable in large crowds of people so i dont go out often. I usually stay at home playing videogames. So problems started a week ago. I think i got panic attack, waking up in the middle of night multiple times, lump in throat, dry mout, hyperventilation. Next morning i just felt lump, and kinda felt sometimes shallow breathing. It was hard to fell asleep but when i do i didnt woke up multiple times. Then as the days past i started waking up again, like i stopped breathing, multiple times. Got scared and rushed to hospital. Lungs and hearth ok, they said its probably stress and maybe thyroid hormons. So then new sympthom cane. I felt like i stopped breathing even when im not sleeping. So now im focused on my breathing and its causing me a problems. Also my tongue feels strange. Is this normal for anxiety disorder? Im really scared and cant stop thinking about it. Any advice would help.:weep::weep:

Hey Steven. All of the above sounds horrible and I'm sorry you've had to go through it.
The breathing symptoms above are things I've never experienced personally so I can't really give any advice on that, but I know exactly how it feels to have no self confidence and have low self esteem... you are not alone buddy.
I hope someone who has similar symptoms to you can help you with coping mechanisms etc but for everything else is you wanna talk drop a message.
Take care
Jay
