Anxiety or heart problem?

Question

Lately I haven’t been getting good sleep. I have bad anxiety so sometimes I’m up worrying bout random stuff or I just can’t fall asleep. Lately I’ve been up till 7am.
I’ve noticed that when I lay down I get heart palpitations, even when sitting up. I feel it in my throat. My chest feels tight n it gets hard to breathe. Sometimes I feel like I’m gonna faint. 
Does this just sound like anxiety??

Answer

Cardiac nurse here. Go get your heart checked out so that you know your heart health is not a problem.

Answer

Could be either one we can’t tell you

Answer

Panic attacks?

Answer

Is it all the time or just randomly?

Answer

Get checked out because you wouldn’t want to wait on a heart problem. That being said I personally get those symptoms and that is anxiety in my case

Answer

Definitely anxiety. You start focusing on everything when you’re having a panic attack. Your breathing, your heart rate, everything. I literally felt like my life was ended right then and there. I thought i was the light 😂 but just breathe, watch some tv, drink you a glass of water. Try to focus on something else. And just tell yourself it’s all going to be okay. That’s what helped me.
