Hello everyone, I would appreciate anyone's advice or experiences. I'm 20 years old and I have been dealing with anxiety most of my life. They go in phases. They come and go. I'll get that one really bad panic attack and then it all goes down hill for months. My days consume on me being afraid of it happening again and then it will happen. I start to become depressed and feel like I will never be happy again. It seems that I am in that phase again, but this ones worse. I am a hypochondriac, and I have this weird phobia about my heart. My anxiety has been causing me to have heart palpitations and it's freaking me out, what if it's not the anxiety? I've been really scared 
it really only happens when I am worried about it and then when I'm out and about I'll be okay, but once I'm not doing anything it starts happening. I just want to know if anyone else experiences this, or has advice. I would really appreciate it! 
Hi myrissa
I'm going through a similar episode at the moment
Minus the heart worry I think that you your body is reacting to your
Anxiety which is making you tense,and I doubt anything is really wrong with
Your heart, but if your that worried I would go and see
Your gp, I'm only 23 and I'm freaking out about
My life and future at the moment, panicking what I'm doing next, and
I've been off my new job for 2 weeks now because of it:s
I have to go and see them today to explain my issues :s not good as
It's making me panic!

Hey Jen, thanks for sharing your experience. I know how you feel I sometimes worry about the same thing! Anxiety is such a bummer. I miss being my happy, outgoing self. I am against taking meds but I feel it may be my only option now.
I hope that your job is understanding of your anxiety issues, for it is a very disabling problem! 
Yeah I know I want to be able to start enjoying myself again
And not worry about everything! It's such a pain, I've recently
Gone onto anti anxiety meds and the do seemed to of helped
A little just by calming my nerves a bit but the worries are still
There but helps your body not to react so much.
Thanks I hope so to as I'm unable to control it at the moment
So being at work won't help me at all, I'd say go to your go
And see what they say.

Very glad to hear that they're helping you cope more, I'm sure you will do just fine at work! It is very uncontrollable, but it doesn't last forever.
I will definitely go get everything checked so my mind is at ease. I'm currently having anxiety and heart palpitations. It always happens when I'm trying to sleep. It sucks!
Yeah I hope they are understandable as this anxiety
Attack has come out of the blue! Yeah I find it hard to sleep sometimes
Due to the anxiety, it's when you know nothing is really wrong
But can't help dwelling and worrying about certain things.
Jen.
