Chest pain, cough, breathing

[Ak0828]

So I have had health anxiety about a bunch of stuff in the past, as well as anxiety in general. Well, as of Sunday my heart started racing AGAIN and my chest has hurt on and off since then. Sometimes it hurts when I take deep breaths. Sometimes it’s a random sharp pain. And now I have this cough. I’m absolutely paranoid that it’s either Covid or heart related. I keep reminding myself that I’ve done this so many times, but I can’t shake this feeling it’s something bad. It even hurts up into my neck sometimes. Does anyone else have this?

I feel the same way currently. My sharp pains happen closer to the left side where my heart is. Of course that has me worried at the current moment. The more I stress about it, the worse it gets. Then comes the lightheaded feelings and dizziness. Its such a pain. I feel for you! Please, share what your fix is when you find one!

I think the symptoms you mentioned are usually associated with anxiety, however it is possible to reduce symptoms. I urge you to forget about the stuff in the past, it will only be a hindrance on you. Keep a renewed mind and a renewed heart daily. Its the best thing you could do. Even practising but failing will take you a long way into success.
