Anxious feeling
Whenever I go deep into my thoughts about something that makes me anxious I feel like my heart is beating fast and uneven and my breathing becomes heavy and labored. My chest always seems to flutter too. To calm myself I need to take long breaths and squeeze my fists. This happens very frequently and it’s getting very irritating.
[03/02, 15:47] Dr Kailash Psychiatrist: I understand ur difficulties. U seem to have prominent anxiety symptoms. Sweating, palpitations, breathing difficulty, chest tightness are the bodily symptoms of anxiety. Anxiety makes a person lose his confidence, reduces his concentration and potential and dull his ability to think. V would need to know a few more details like ur sleep, frequency, other situations that might make u anxious etc to give appropriate suggestions. Dont worry, it's not ur fault. Anxiety occurs due to chemical imbalance in the brain. Ur problem can be easily treated with counselling and if needed medications. U will be able to function better with it. Don't let ur problems affect ur personal or professional help. U need to consult a psychiatrist. U can also consult me online through the Practo chat option. Best wishes for speedy recovery!!
