Tiny pains

Ok sooo a little background on myself...(facts will be randomized sorta)

A few years ago my best friend (like a brother to me) died in a car wreck....

I started to smoke weed while dating this girl that was really fucking with my emotions...my friend got me to try a pill that he got and he thought it was the correct thing, i took it, and within a few mins realized that it wasn't what it should have been..and it put me in the WORST panic attack of my life...

That girl then dumped me and SERIOUS anxiety attacks started to happen shortly after that.....

I went to the doctor recently for a checkup and my blood pressure was like 167/96 or something it was a little high due to being in the doctors in general, but my stand alone pace for my heart is rather fast i'm inactive, i don't eat very healthy...but i'm trying to change that with 2013 being a new year.

During the day i'v been getting little tiny pains in my chest, just randomly, and i am sorta short of breath but i think that comes with being not so healthy.

---Random question jump-----

Have you ever thought something about yourself like...in my case for some reason with the pains i'v been getting in my chest...i feel like i have cancer or something (part of my anxiety i get thinking about something and it's set in my mind that i have it, it's odd...) so like now that my anxiety is causing me to think that i have cancer, it seems to me that i am seeing the word cancer, hearing about people heart problems and cancer shit, and it just makes me feel even more that i have cancer or something seriously wrong with me.

I seriously think that it's my anxiety fucking with my mind and causing pains or something...

I do have to admit i'm terrified of the doctors....i'm 270 lbs and 6'1 almost....still scared as fuck of hospitals doctors etc....so....what the fuck should i do. I'm tired of feeling like somethings wrong with me and that i'm going to die every day, i'm not sure what i have to do to get a grasp on my life and get me headed in the right direction to being healthy and stop all of these fucking problems...

any help or something would be very nice..

Thanks.

 

If you think something isn't right, go see a doctor dude. It's normal to be afraid of the doctor's or the hospital or something. They are all there to help you, nothing more.

As for that pill you took, it might have been LSDs. They have a tendency to give you a sudden emotional change based on your current state. They can also give you different mood swings in later life too. Plus they can influence mental conditions and make them worse then they already are. It could have been anything though, so don't take my word on it.

 

yeah i know and i think it was a anti depresant that was very high strength, but ever since then i can't go out and stay at friends houses i can't go anywhere and not have a panic attack...

as for my pains i'm honistly scared as FUCK to go and have them do tests and stuff and see whats wrong because i know my anxiety will be super high and i hate having panic attacks and it would even be worse if im at a hospital as they are testing for something or whatever the hell they would do.

It's hard as fuck to overcome my fear for that with this anxiety problem.

I went to a therapist and they said that i have the highest "tier" of anxiety problems or whatever (i forget what she said) and it's something that i would without doubt give up everything i own to get rid of it...)

i just don't know what to do :I

part of me just thinks i need to start getting active, eating healthy, and see from there....but my activity i do outside is disc golf mostly, and yeah i have played in several inches up to a foot of snow on the ground but it's just not as fun and kinda pisses me off so i really cant "Activly" get back into disc golf until the weather gets a little better, as for eating healthy...well after graduating highschool i'v lost quite a few friends so i really don't get out of the house often.....as much as i would like too...sooo idk..

 

Look in seeing the doctor, try to overcome that fear. Ask yourself this, would you like to not know and have some severe disease/heart condition lingering about or even the thought of having or would you like to know for sure that you're fine? This could be a life or death illness/condition too. As for your health, look into a gym and really motivate yourself to get a little healthy. Look up things for motivation. Trust me, once you go healthy, you'll be happier than ever.

 

Bump..

 

Go to the doctors it sounds like some kind of anxiety caused heart defect!

 

It's quite possibly you have something such as GAD (General Anxiety Disorder), as well as a potential physical manifestation of pain from stress and such. On the flip side, it could be something involving heart condition and all (say that's less likely due to history of anxiety and all.)

You can look into things, but don't self-diagnoses cause it's one of the worst things you could do.

Go to a family doctor and explain what's going on, it's quite possible he could describe you medication to deal with anxiety, and if that doesn't work he'd take you off it. Having the whole mentality of not needing to go to the doctors is a horrible one to be in, I used to be in it.

It won't hurt anything, and it's very likely it could help.

 

i just don't know i was put on depression meds before and meds for anxiety and they just made it worse, and now because of my anxiety im scared to take any kind of pills again thinking it's going to cause some kind of bad reaction and put me into another hell like panic attack

 

This might not be entirely on topic, but a higher heart rate in rest is not necessarily a bad thing. I've always had a high heart rate (70+ in rest, can go over 200 without problems)

If you really think something is wrong with you, definitely go see a doctor, if only to put your mind at ease. It'll take away some of the stress/anxiety as well.

 

Go see a doctor, it's normal to feel weird seeing them, I've been diagnosed with depression, anxiety and other things. I've been seen for pain all over and every time I go I'm glad I did.

 

Ye you should see a Doctor some of the small pains are usually the worse, so the best option is to see a physician. Good luck with the outcome tho.

 

Depending on your age it could be growing pains, I see to get them a lot, feels like my chest is caving in sometimes.

 

Ok without having read any of the above comments im gonna post mine;

Right on the spot.
I myself took a lot of drugs and also felt pain in the chest once in a while. I didn't know whether it was pain in the heart or pain in my longues, it feels like theres a knife in ur chest and makes u unable to move(cus ur scared the stabby feeling would cause something bad) or fully breath, anyhow it was always on the left side(where the heart lays). I'm positive it was because of the drugs. I don't know how frequently/how many you've taken in the past but i did it weekly for a good 1.5-2yrs. Aside from that I also had to deal with anxiety issues for a while aswell, I also always thought something was wrong with me, I "picked" up all the bad signals from the media lol, so lets say there was a documentary on tv about symptoms before heartattacks, I'd immediately think I'd get the same thing(because of the anxiety).
I never went to the doctor to explain my problem but if I was you, I would certainly go. The doctor is your friend in this case mate, no need to be afraid, it's all in the head(your body has in the past built up negative emotions/thoughts about doctors which made u afraid of them and it'll make ur body feel like it wants to get out of there) none of the bad stuff is going to help, if you feel afraid, think of it as a step in the right direction, a process you need to go through to get rid of the fear of doctors . They're here to help. Confronting your fear is really the best way to get rid of this. Also tell the doctor you're afraid of doctors and hospitals, it'll make u feel a lot more comfy right away. Doctors have seen it all really, think of that when you tell your story.

Ok if what i wrote above is totally not what you've been getting, then it might be some sort of muscle problem, my mother once also had pain in her chest during a whole day, also had trouble breathing, doctor told her it was a muscle that was causing this.

 

I would also have to say make sure you get into your general doctor as soon as possible, I would also recommend that if the pain were to become greater or move that you go to an emergency room as well.

 

GO TO A DOCTER :L

man i wish the best for you but go to a docter and the chest pain might just be heart pain like its normal happens to everyone where itsl ike you cant breath in or it hurts you can get pills for that i think if it gets sertious

 

But yeah the more healthy you get the better you will be in the long run from psyically to mentally

 

From the 270lb 6'1 part I am going to assume you are a bit overweight. Forgive me if you are just built ect.

Relating to you my father also was super afraid of doctors, as he was largely overweight and didn't like to hear he was out of shape ect.

However because of this he didn't realize he had some serious issues going on, and Spring of last year he got Pancreatitus and was in a induced coma in ICU for over a month, and every doctor I spoke to said he should have died.

Now a year later he is no longer overweight, happier and overall much better. Doctors help, see one
