I am new to this forum although i have looked at the site before. I have had anxiety for about a year, predominantly panic attacks. It all came from nowhere so i am constantly searching for the reason why i have it. I have always been a chilled and fun person but everything has changed since i started having panic attacks.
For the past day i have had awful nausea and stomach problems. This, accompanied by shaking, palpitations and chest pain, just terrifies me. I am convinced i am going to have a heart attack. I get pains around left breast and under left rib cage, as well as tingling and tightness in left arm. Often the left side of my face goes numb and tingly.
I am worse at night although i have attacks that come from nowhere during the day too. When i lie on my side in bed my heartbeat pounds in my ear. Some days i wake up shaking. I get internal tremors and a severe visible tremor in my left hand. I often feel dizzy and it is worse when i lie down.
Sometimes at work i feel shakey before lunch so have something to eat, but then still feel woozy and always shakey late afternoon.
I have woken up in night recently with severe stomach pain and nausea and ended up fainting in bathroom. It is really scary to me. Surely that isn't anxiety too?
I am not good tonight. I don't understand why i have such extreme nausea. I can't sleep and don't want to be on my own as i am scared i am going to have heart attack. I am not having usual panic attack, i feel genuinely unwell. I know it sounds illogical but i feel just horrid.
Just posting for some company and understanding really... Fed up with it all i feel a bit desperate!!
