Hi, its my first time here. I have been looking on the internet for the last few weeks to find out about my symptoms and at the moment I am self diagnosed. I am generally a worrier and I stress a lot and sometimes get heart palpitations and I generally suffer with tension headaches which sometimes last months. I think my anxiety started a couple of weeks a go, I had a bad head for a couple of days, different to the usual but I had also found a lump in my breast which panicked me. I don't remember having a panic attack but I know I was really scared and cried when my partner got home. Then a few days later I got up and was having quite a few heart palpitations and went for a walk with my sister. I had been drinking the night before and as we were walking I had the most weird feeling in my head for a split second...it felt like someone had switched the lights out. As soon as it came it went but it panicked me for sure as I had never had anything like that. I went to the docs and she told me not to worry but I couldn't help it and then a couple of days later I started to get lightheaded, constantly!. My heart palpitations have stopped but then yesterday I got myself worked up again about something else and my lightheadednes, which had started to go away, came back but even worse than before. My skin sometimes feels a bit tingly on my fingers and patches on my face. I think this is anxiety, what does anyone else think?

Thanks
