Hello everyone!
This is my first post on this site. I am so glad that I have found this.
Anyways, I am turning 26 this year and have recently been having anxiety/panic attacks. I'm October, I was fired from my job, but I was not upset about it as I was looking to get out of there anyway. I am currently on a temporary assignment through a placement agency, and although it is different, I am more happy here.
about two weeks ago, I was laying in bed and felt a tingling sensation, pins and needles if you will, starting in my left fingers then leading up my left arm. I disregarded it as me just sleeping on my arm. Then it started going down the entire left side of my body, then to the right side. Then my heart starts beating fast and I feel almost a quick, electric pain in my chest.
Every day, I am constantly worried I am going to have a heart attack either in my sleep or awake. My left arm is starting to tingle as I am typing this.
I haven't seen a doctor, but the last check up on had, I had perfect blood pressure reading, 120/80, so I know my heart is strong. I have gained 60lbs in two years from the stress of my previous job and I am currently.on a diet and workout regimen.
I just want to know how to feel better, I am always scared.
