I'm scared I feel weird I'm hurting in my chest and my heart is pounding fast
Are you anxious about anything? Not sleeping can make you anxious anyways and cause the heart to race. Hope you feel better. If your really worried about it see your doctor for peace of mind
Do you normally suffer from anxiety? Anxiety can cause the symptoms you have. When you are anxious, your brain sends out a hormone called adrenaline which causes rapid heart rate. This cannot hurt you! I know it feels scary and weird but that's all it can do. You see, all anxiety begins in the brain so in order to calm down your symptoms you need to relax the brain.
first of all, have you ever spoken to a counselor about anxiety? Sometimes we don't even realize that we have underlying anxiety and that's where a counselor can really help. It helped me a lot to speak to someone about things that were bothering me.
next, something that helps me every day is listening to meditations found on YouTube for anxiety. They completely calm down my entire mind and body in my symptoms diminish greatly or go away. I do this a couple times a day.
to begin with, listen to one called mindful meditation for relaxation by Glenn.
something else it's really important to know is proper breathing for anxiety. There is a meditation called 10 minute breath meditation that would benefit you a lot.
after that, there are many other meditations on YouTube for just about anything including depression, sleeping, positive self affirmations and on and on. If you can use earbuds because they give the best effect. Listen carefully to the meditations because they help you separate negative thinking and anxiety from yourself.
