For the last 3 days, i am under stress due to exam preparation and having other worrying thoughts.
Due to stress and anxiety, my heart is beating very fast…what should i do?
Will anxiety medications help me or should i recover my own by managing stress and anxiety better?
Take a deep breath and relax. Have you ever tried meditation? Sit still on the floor with your eyes closed and concentrate on your steady breathing. Clear your mind of everything by thinking of one single thing such as God. (works for me). Hope this helps.

Im getting this poping pinching pain in my chest area. I got little sleep last night and had a arguement today
Anxiety is due to fear. To overcome fear you have to identify what you are afraid of and then face it . The difficulty may be in identifying it as fears my be subconscious. I also think you are a little obsessed with your health maybe even somewhat a hypochondriac. I especially think this is true if you are young. Fear of dying from ill health may be the fear you have to overcome. If your anxiety persists see a gp physician for possible recommendation to a psychologist or psychiatrist.A panic attack can have symptoms which can be confused with a heart attack.

Alright, I have a feeling that I had an anxiety attack 2 weeks ago.
I had this dizzy feeling, an my heart started to beat fast.
I was with my mom, Im 12.
I lied down on the bed, and drank water and felt better after 6-7 minutes
Well, the doctor didn’t know what I was having since it was only the first day, I am overweight, I weighed 68 kilos, and I am 5foot.
Though the day after I started losing weight, eating healthy.
I had another anxiety attack a few days after.
The 2 weeks are up, I haven’t had an anxiety attack in a while.
Though, I still have shortness of breath, and chest pain, and abit of numbness. I used to weigh 68, now I weigh 65.
If I continue losing weight, stayin healthy, and calm the heck down will thes ephysical symptoms go away? are there any natural treatments?
or do I need medical treatment?
People with experience said they didn’t need it, and used natural remedies to heal it.
Though I don’t know those natural remedies.
help ?
Ok these are some tips that work for me:
Keep yourself occupied during an attack. For me sometime playing a video game or typing online or drawing … Something that takes your mind off of the physical symptoms and keeping your hands busy.
Sometimes a nice warm bath can help too. I don't reccomend the shower as much because for me I get too dizzy.
Oh and try to relax and say away from stress if possible.
Practicing deep breathing through out the day can help.
I've found caffeine cause me a lot of anxiety so I cut out a lot.
Try to figure out around when you are getting anxious so you can try to pin point what it is and figure out a way to deal with that specifically.
Meditation and yoga and exercise.
I myself find Praying works.
I do suggest seeing a dr again for further tests to make sure it is anxiety and if need be medication.
I am on a couple thing's for anxiety myself but I have pretty severe anxiety.
Good luck.

What is it that makes people get scared & fear of dieing when they are getting chest pains due to cause they suffer from Anxiety? why do chest pains make you feel this way?!
Your talking about Panic Attacks. A real panic attack makes you hyperventilate hence you get pains, feel like you can not breath, dizziness and pins & needles in your feet and hands, so the more you panic the worse it gets. Its call the Flight and Fear response, from the Cave Man days when it gave him the adrenaline to run from screaming beasts or whatever. I was convinced I was having a Stroke. I thought I’d been having them for about 7 years but then i had what I call a real one and it was bad. It’s feels very physical and is an chemical imbalance in your brain mainly caused by too much stress. Hence the anxiety tablet help sort out the chemical level.

A few years ago I went in for testing due to chronic chest pain. Through a series of tests it was discovered that nothing was physically wrong but that I was just experiencing stress.
Since that time I have continued to have chest pain. Naturally, it is worse at higher stress times.
My Guy has suggested that perhaps I suffer from anxiety. I asked my mom about what she thought and she told me the same, that she felt I experience a lot of anxiety.
The thing is, on the outside I’m usually okay - no real physical symptoms besides the chest pain and maybe some nausea or headaches. I do feel stressed out a lot, that I can’t get done what I need to get done for my university classes but is there really anything I can do about it?
If I do indeed suffer from anxiety, it is probably mild most of the time and severe only occasionally (a couple times a month I am thinking). Is it worth it to go back to my doctor and discuss it with him?
If we chose to treat it by medication, what sort would he put me on? The people I know with anxiety are on everything from Paxil (an antidepressant) to Xanax (a narcotic relaxant)
Looking for some detailed feedback from personal knowledge and experiences - not a quick yes or no answer. Thank you!
*NOTE* If your advice is not to go back to the doctor, what can I do to alleviate my chest pain?
Chest pain, under any circumstances, should be assessed by a physician to ensure there isn’t a cardiac problem. Because you “didn’t then” doesn’t mean that you “don’t now”.
An anti-anxiety may indeed help you, and there is no shame in taking something that will help you physically deal with stress. You body is telling you that you are stressed, and it’s chemistry will reflect that. Long term stress and anxiety can lead to very real health problems, so there is nothing wrong with taking something NOW to help you. Each doctor is different, and each person is different, so there is no way of knowing what the doc will put you on, without knowing your whole medical history. It may be something short acting like Ativan, or they may want you on an antidepressant or similar. Don’t be surprised if you have to try different drugs before you get relief - this is common. You may hit the nail on the head the first time - most antianxieties are fairly effective and you may only need them “as needed”.
Consider therapy, a life coach, or similar to assist you in dealing with your stress. Is there something in your life that you need to talk out? That you need help in dealing with? This is normal, and again, there is no shame in seeking a professional to help you cope with your stress, and helping you adapt some healing techniques to help you cope with stress and your stressors.
Consider meditiation, yoga, or spiritual things. These may seem very spooky and new age, but yoga and meditation can help ease your body from stress through learning relaxation and breathing techniques. They also help you become more aware of your body, which may help you learn your early physical signs that you are feeling stressed, so that you may better deal with them before they escalate to chest pain.
As you’ve learned, stress is very real, and can have real health effects or physical symptoms. Don’t ignore it even if you feel fine most of the time.. it’s something that deseves attention. Good luck!
