Hi hun. :)

You're not having a heart attack, promise. The symptoms we get when we are really anxious can lead to panic and that's what is happening to you right now.
Have you been to see your doctor?

Ok, I know how hard it is to believe that there is nothing wrong when you feel so ill.
I haven't read your other posts yet, I wanted to respond quickly cos I could see how scared you are. Has this happned to you before?

I've had a quick peek at your other posts. :)

It's all a heck of a lot to cope with at your age but it isn't uncommon for teenagers to develop anxiety issues and to seek help for them.
Maybe if your mum agrees you can go back to the doctor and ask for a referral to the Child Psychology service, I believe they help young people up to the age of 18.
I don't know the exact situation with your parents but try and remember that they probably don't know what to do for the best. I'm a mum and I remember thinking that one of my kids was being a bit of a "drama-queen", she always seemed to want attention for one thing or another and I had a hard time coping with her.
It's a very difficult thing for a parent to admit that there might be a psychological problem with their child so try and keep calm with your mum if you can.
