Anxiety and panic issues need advice
Hello doctors.From last year during first phase of lockdown this all started with a breathing issue almost every night made me stay awake i did google to rule out my symptoms and slowly as days passed sudden fear that its might be a heart issue and also that time I also heard a lot of negative news like very young people are having heart attack or stroke. Those news started developing more fear in me captured inside.There was loss of appetite less sleep lack of energy.So I consulted with gp he and I had gone for tests blood count,thyroid,sugar,hemoglobin and ecg all reports came normal.Ecg was normal sinus arrhythmia which again i thought that could be something deadly but doctors tell me its not an issue your heart is absolutely fine.But whenever i get some negative news my health anxiety starts again and I feel that I have heart issues.I cant sleep due to fear even I feel sleepy. I get sleep at 4am or 6am and wake up at 10am for office. I want treatment without any medicine. posible?

The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.
Leave behind confused reactions and become patient as the earth; unmoved by anger, unshaken as a pillar, unperturbed as a clear and quiet pool

Hi...you're experiencing cognitive anxiety and panic. It can be cured with 15-20 Counselling Sessions (weekly).
Your panic response will be removed, your sleep and routine will get back in order. But if you want to treat the root cause of your anxiety and panic, you will have to continue therapy/counselling for an year with weekly sessions.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist.
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) will work well.
