Is this Anxiety?

for 16 år siden 0 +0 / -0 2101

Hiya Miki,

Just wanted to drop in and say I too have had tightness in the chest while anxious. I used to find it super frightening but I got used to it being part of my battery of anxiety/panic symptoms. Sorry for the short reply! Hang in there.

Yes, I have felt it before and I am afraid to let my voice out so I just have to calm down.

Jane,

As you can see, you are not alone in experiencing these feelings. These are often associated to panic attacks. Keep on working your way through the program and learning how to challenge your anxious thoughts.

I too have experienced this and when my panic was at it's worst it was quite bad... A very unpleasant experience. With my relapse too I had it again... yuck.

You're definately not crazy nor are you alone in your feelings. Even looking at my hands would weird me out...When I was in an anxiety disorders clinic group study program they told me to stare at myself in the mirror to create that feeling ... it was strange at first but it ended up helping.... I coud recreate that depersonalization and know that I was ok.. A lot of it has to do with breathing as CD mentioned (such a smart cookie)... when we breathe shallow it affects our oxygen levels etc and can create that sensation...

As for my voice not working etc... that is weird too but normal with anxiety.

You're not alone and it will pass ... Once you find the tools that work for you to get through those moments you'll be just fine... Be patient with yourself it's a bit of a learning curve...

We're here to listen and share our stories though... Everyone has helped me soo much.

Take care.

Hello Jane , yes i have felt like that . Even my voice sounded strange like it wasnt mine when i talked . That was when i was on high alert a few months ago . I would just nod and smile and did answer but only short ones . It does get better , i pratice my deep breathing every single day sometimes a few times a day .

I think that anxiety symptoms can manifest themselves as real problems, but arent..like the chest, we think something bad is wrong, but its just stress, and deep breathing helps. I went to my doc and she examined me and my blood pressure and everything is normal. So i'm thinking the dizzieness must be from the anxiety, i dont get it often anymore, just when i'm out trying new things, I just say to myself "youre fine" over and over again, it seems to help. I sometimes go and do my biking or a walk and it helps.

This is the catch 22 thing all over . I get the throat and breathing thing every single day . Do all the right things i have been taught here , the breathing excises etc .

It does worry me why it dosnt go away if im honest , but am learning to live with it . Dont want it though

Minnesota,

If the feeling of tightness and dizziness persists I would highly recommend going to see your family doctor. You may also want to try some breathing exercises when you are feeling anxious or nervous, that might help.
