I've struggled with anxiety for about 8 years now, you're not alone and you're not going crazy or dying! Everything you mentioned above I've had from anxiety, they are all common symptoms but it's good you went to the Dr just in case.
Is there a reason for this recent anxiety overload? Did something traumatic happen to you, have u been under a lot of stress? Usually that kind of stuff brings out the anxiety from it's hiding place.
Just keep in mind, everything you are feeling is completely common and normal for anxiety sufferers. You are NOT dying and your heart is not going to stop, even if it may feel like it is - it's not. My friend is an EMT and she said you wouldn't believe the amount of 911 calls for heart attacks that turn out to be just anxiety attacks - so that right there tells you how severe the symptoms can be!
I highly recommend seeing a therapist, I do and it helps me a LOT. You can use Psychology Today website to find one near u that takes ur insurance, etc. I bet you will feel so much better even after your first visit.
Mine started out of nowhere in the middle of the night one night. and I was anxious 24/7 and I did not believe it was anxiety and started worrying about my health and every other little thing which caused such a vicious cycle. I had every one of the symptoms you mentioned plus some. Mine went on for about 10 or 11 months CONSTANTLY because I did not let myself believe it was anxiety. So take it from me, if all of your blood work and test come back normal, believe it is anxiety and start fixing it. Relieve stress, meditate, relax, think positive, control your thoughts, don't let your thoughts control you. I chose not take any medication and it took me well over a year to get it under control to a point where I can actually sleep all the way through the night. I still have anxiety but now I kn ow what it is and can calm myself down much quicker. Looking back I wish I would have believed it and started way before Ii did, because then it I don't think it would have taken me so long to get it under control.
Thank you for all your responses i highly appreciate your help and info...i think when i see fuzzy things in my visions that triggers my anxiety and loud noises
I'm having the same problem with my vision. Blurry and spots, it's been going on for a year. Had tons of tests and saw tons of specialist and nothing is showing
I felt the same when I would get dizzyness from my anxiety. The dizzyness feeling would come around and then I would start panicking from worrying something is wrong w me
