For the past three or four days I've been feeling awful. My chest feels light and airy like it's going to give out at any second, my back hurts, my stomach hurts. I get a lot of excess gas, I don't feel like eating anymore, I wake up in the middle of the night from panic attacks, I feel sweaty and cold within seconds of each other, and it feels like my body is constantly vibrating. Yesterday my chest hurt for long enough that I actually thought I was having a heart attack. I feel dizzy and tired off and on all day and I'm so high strung I'm giving myself headaches from clenching my teeth so hard.
Basically my life has been a living hell for these past few days and by this point I'm so close to just...completely giving up, saying "whatever" and doing something stupid. Currently I can feel my heart beating in my neck and all throughout my body and my anxiety is so high I can't even feel panicked. I just feel withdrawn.
I don't know what to do anymore. I can't handle living like this anymore. But I can't call a crisis line or anything because crisis line operators don't typically share my past, and I can't talk to my friends or parents because they'll get stressed out and complain that I'm telling them too much.
I feel like there's only one way out of this and it scares me so much. I'm at a loss and I need help.

Let the wind go free where er You may be, Because it is the wind that killith Thee. lol
When you let of a ripe on, if you have a dog, blame the dog, A dog is always good looking guilty especially if you look at the animal with disgust in your eyes
You need to ask yourself why you feel the way you do, have you seen your GP ??? Make a list of your concerns and a double appointment to see your GP, your list will help you explain your Anxiety

I found some one that going thru the same situation I been having chest pain all day long but doctors told me everything is okay I went to the ER,Cardiologist and my regular doc they all say I'm okay idk what to do at this point
4 days? Try it for a month! Until I started practising mindful meditation, letting go of my thoughts, putting less emotions on them, going to the gym more. Yeah I still have my bad days, I still have trouble sleeping on my bad days but compare to 1 month ago, I feel great!I'm scared of going full schizo, but I don't get overly anxious about it. Not to the point of sweating, heart beating out of my chest, or stomach cramps like a month ago.
I'm almost 2 months with this pain
Learn to let go of your thoughts, learn to put less emotions on them. Whatever is making you anxious, learn to let it go. I'm not saying it easy, I'm just trying to let you know, that IT DOES GET BETTER! All you need is a little effort and will to get better.
So u think if it was sum bad it could of shown on my x ray,chest ultrasound or blood
I get what you're saying but please don't try to invalidate my experience by saying you've had it longer. Which you haven't, actually. I've been having these sorts of problems since July of last year. They've only worsened in severity since then, to the point I can't handle it anymore. Nothing helps. Literally nothing I have tried has worked at all.
I have talked to my doctor...in fact I've talked to quite a lot of doctors and had a lot of tests done. None of them seem interested in helping with my mental health, though. Plus I live in a rural area where there's not a lot of options nearby for specialty doctors of any kind.
I'm sorry.
Have you tried medication? See your doctor. See a mental health professional. They'll give you medicine to help you calm down. When you do calm down, try and see why are you anxious.
I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble getting access to mental health resources - that must make this so much more difficult. It also seems like it would be a game changer if you had someone you could call when you are feeling at your worst. There are a lot of apps now that address mental health issues, so being in a rural area isn't a problem - like TalkSpace or Better Health. Would you be willing to look into one of those? On Better Health you can email exchange but I believe FaceTime (or the equivalent) is also an option.
