Am I suffering from any mental illness?
Symptoms which I always experience are like heart rate increase without any reason even when I'm resting and chest pains, hands and feet become cold and sweaty, hands especially right hand trembles even when I'm not holding anything
I face problems in breathing.. sometimes I experience chills running down my spines
And sometimes I get suicidal thoughts.. I had this feeling every time a panic attack triggered that no one loves me so I should not exist and I'm so alone and all these negative thoughts come to my mind..
Do I need a psychiatrist or is it not a big deal to experience these things?

It is definitely a big deal to experience these things. It is hampering quality of your life, but not the quantity, but how about you know? Just not living your life to the fullest each day. I’m just stressing about irrelevant things. So having sad thoughts are serious. You need to consult a therapist or psychiatrist and get your therapist session and this is not a dominant state. Temporary fee is it will get better, but you need to take the right help all the best.

A detailed medical and psychiatric history is always needed for every patient to make a diagnosis and the management of the case accordingly.
Your symptoms are mixed in presentation are both medical and of psychiatric illnesses.
Duration of the symptoms are not discussed.In addition, it’s not clear whether any stress (Psychological) preceded the symptoms.

Whatever you have described are all symptoms of anxiety, which happens due to chemical changes inside the brain. If you leave these anxiety symptoms untreated, you can go on to develop depression and suicidal thoughts. This needs attention from a psychiatrist. You have to see a psychiatrist and get medications to correct the chemical imbalance in the brain. These medications are very simple and will bring remarkable improvement in your overall anxiety and symptoms of depression. Please seek help me.
