chest tightness, nausea, dizziness, blurry vision

[Kyrak]

Hi everyone, My long term boyfriend and i just broke up 2 days ago and i imagine this is causing me a lot of anxiety. I also recently started a new job so im sure thats not helping but lately i have just had extreme tightness in my chest and its almost hard to take a deep breath. I also am very nauseous at random points in the day and my vision feels weird. I hate this feeling and i hate feeling alone now without my boyfriend. When i come on this forum i love to get responses because then I know im not alone and hope that this is all of us doing this together and im NOT DYING!! So if you are reading this please feel free to respond it really helps me out. Thanks guys <3

So sorry to hear about you and your partner,I think when we are in stressful situations health anxiety can get even worse....I’m having awful dizziness and headaches and aches and pains all over the place and it’s awful....started stertraline 2 weeks ago so I’m hoping they may start to help eventually....I’d love to go back to work but at the moment I just don’t ever see it happening so well done on getting out there and doing it l...always here if you need a chat x

Hi Kyrak. You've got some major life changes going on that easily could explain those anxiety induced physical symptoms. It's great that you can still work. I'd try to not worry about those physical symptoms as I'm confident they'll let up as you get more time under your belt adjusting to your new life situation. Each of your symptoms are very common with anxiety even though they feel so real right now. Keep pluggin', it will get better.
