Anxiety is taking over my life any suggestions?

I have suffered anxiety for over 20 years with bouts of depression.  I have good years and bad.  The last year and a half has been bad.  Has anyone else felt like every pain is there heart?  I have had constant discomfort for months now upper back upper left chest area above my breast and below my left breast. I have had numerous trips to the er with ekgs blood work and also a stress test and a calcium deposit score everthing good.  But discomfort still there and my anxiety is thru the roof.  I barely get my self to work and worried about my heart 24 7. 

Does it affect your thinking skills too

Not to often just get pre occupied with the worrying 

I have a relative that is obsessed with his heart and anxiety about it. but that anxiety hasn't helped him, it has just made his life much harder. they never found anything but his anxiety has hurt him more than any heart issue. so i'd think the best heart advice is to know that you did the tests, they were good, and you did all you can. 

you went to a cardiologist right? what do they say?

Yes, I feel a pain near my heart quite often when anxiety strikes.  Many times I have feared I was having a heart attack, yet, like you all testing has turned out fine, thankfully.  It is very frightening.  I try to breathe through it but that doesn't always work either.  Anxiety is such a struggle.  I am glad that you are okay.  

I have been this way a month now I don’t understand it but eating a big meal triggers it

I've had chest pains everyday since December 21, 2016.  I woke up at 4 in morning thinking I was having a heart attack.  Went to ER and blood work and stress test was all normal.  Went back in May, again normal.  Yesterday was a bad day and chest tightened and pain in jaw. Dialed 911 and gave phone to my son who happened to be home sick from school.  Fortunately I didn't hit send.  Because within 5 minutes realized just another panic attack.  But it's very scary.  And I have the exact same symptoms as you.  I do have gerd and gas that gets trapped in chest which is also caused by anxiety.  It's a daily  struggle that I'm trying to get thru without losing my mind.  So you're not alone.

Hey not sure if you are familiar with it but have you tried CBD oil? I started taking it about 2 months ago and its a wonder drug!! You have to watch tho because alot of places claim the sell CBD oil but its a lot of junk mixed in and it doesn't work as well. It is from the hemp plant and its 100% legal in the US and Canada. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

Yes I do have a cardiologist I will be see her again next week.  Only thing I have right now is border line high blood pressure everything else with my heart is good

Never heard of this.  It works to calm your anxiety down is what I am guessing.  Does it take the physical symptoms away?

I feel the same way.Every single day.

To me physical symptoms are the worse. I have a feeling I will have a heart attack any minute.

Dear Sueck for a moment I thought you were posting my own life and struggle.

Omg really someone feels like me I thought I was going crazy
