Just after some advice really.
I suffered from quite bad anxiety last year and it was really because I was quite isolated where I lived, didn’t like it, didn’t like my job etc. I started getting better after working really hard on stopping anxiety and then recently I moved away to a place I love, near my family, with a great job. I thought my anxiety had gone away.
About 2 weeks ago I started having a weird tugging pulling feeling in my heart area. Like a tickling feeling, I thought it was adrenaline because I was working from home and trying to reach a deadline, but it has been happening increasingly more and more common in the past 3 weeks, and not when I necessarily am stressed. It is hard to describe, like a non-painful ‘ache’ kind of like the feeling you get when you are looking forward to something or in a hurry, its really weird to explain! Like the heart muscle is stretching or something, or burning –not in an indigestiony way!
Since then I started worrying about it and with it, I am finding it hard to breathe, feeling dizzy clogged up mentally etc. I can’t remember if this is how my original anxiety felt, but I defo did not have this tickling chest sensation ever before. I am not sure if it is just stress from moving, new job, and fact I got married few months ago, and been a bit unsettled due to all these factors. I just want some reassurance as to if anyone else has had these feelings, I have the perfect life now but these feelings are getting in the way of enjoying it and its bringing me down. I thought this was all over as I took steps to resolve it…that is why i started this new life....
Help would be appreciated.
