So yeah, I am new to all this, but here it goes.
about a week ago I started feeling like I couldn't breathe.
As long as I can remember I have always been a
hypochondriac(?). Then I met this girl it pretty much went away, well kind of, I worry about her instead of me. She had to get her gall bladder removed last thursday, needless to say I was really stressed out about it. I always seem to imagine the worst case scenerio. Thats when it seemed to have started, or shortly after. Most of my family and co-workers believe that I'm haveing panic attacks. I've had them before, but never this severe. I've been to the doctor, they x-rayed my lungs and said that all is normal, but for some reason I start obsessing about the things I didn't tell the doctor, the things he didn't check. But it comes and goes, the breathing thing that is. I play in a band, last friday we had a gig, i sat in the parking lot of this club, feeling like I couldn't breathe, my face was tingling, and my heart was pounding. I've been playing music for a while so I am never this nervous, the second we played, it all went away, I wasn't even thinking about it, and it was one of the best shows I have ever played. I guess what I am wondering is why I would be having panic attacks or anxiety at all. My girlfriend is totally fine, and I am really happy with most of the things going on in my life, and the doctor says I am healthy. But I can't convince my self of that, I'm not sure if I am freaking out or if there is something physically wrong with me, but in my head I keep thinking that I am dying of something.
