When I read this, those symptoms sounded to me like maybe you were having a panic attack?

I checked the NHS website - if you click the link below there are a list of symptoms and they seem to fit.

http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Panic-disorder/Pages/Symptoms.aspx

Is this something you've had before? Or do you have any other conditions that might explain how you are feeling?

If you have any, have a cup of chamomile tea, i always find making the tea helps distract me and it has a good calming effect. Sorry if you`ve been told that a million times, but it can help.
I hate panic attacks, i always get them at work.
