Thank you for sharing what you’re experiencing- it takes courage to put your feelings into words. Based on your description, it sounds like you're going through episodes of anxiety that may be manifesting physically (shortness of breath, tingling sensations, etc.). These symptoms are common in anxiety or panic attacks, and you're not alone in feeling this way. It’s also completely okay to feel uncomfortable with in-person or phone consultations. Many people with anxiety find these modes of communication overwhelming. Fortunately, there are alternative options today, including secure chat-based consultations or guided therapy platforms that respect your pace and boundaries.
Next Steps
a. Consider starting with online text-based mental health platforms or apps that allow chat with trained professionals if phone/video feels too difficult. b. A mental health professional (like a psychiatrist or psychologist) can help assess whether your symptoms are part of an anxiety disorder and guide you with personalized treatment. c. Practice slow breathing exercises or grounding techniques when anxiety episodes occur. d. If allergies or physical health issues may be contributing, a combined approach from both physician and mental health expert would be beneficial.
Health Tips
1. Avoid caffeine or stimulants, as they can sometimes trigger or worsen anxiety symptoms. 2. Keep a journal of when symptoms occur- it helps in diagnosis and tracking patterns. You're doing the right thing by seeking answers. Take one step at a time. You deserve support that fits your comfort level.

Thank you for sharing how you’re feeling. I want you to know that you’re not alone—many people experience similar anxiety symptoms like shortness of breath, tingling in the body, or sudden fear without knowing why. These are your body’s way of reacting to stress, and it can be managed with the right support. Since you’re not comfortable with physical interaction or phone calls right now, that’s completely okay. We can begin with simple, quiet ways to help your mind and body feel safe and calm again. You can try: • Writing down your thoughts daily—it helps make sense of the anxiety. • Breathing exercises like slow, deep breaths (in for 4 seconds, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4). • Free mental health apps (like Wysa or InnerHour) that guide you through calming activities without needing to talk to anyone. Whenever you feel ready, there are also text-based or video-off therapists who can work at your pace. Healing doesn’t have to start with talking—it starts with feeling safe. Take your time, and be kind to yourself. You’re already doing something brave by asking for help.

Hi, Your symptoms — sudden anxiety, shortness of breath, tingling in shoulders and hands — are common signs of anxiety. It’s real and treatable. Since you’re not comfortable with in-person or phone consultations, try: 1. Chat-based therapy apps – like Wysa, InnerHour, or BetterHelp. 2. Deep breathing & grounding techniques – they help during anxiety spikes. 3. Journaling symptoms – helps track patterns and feel more in control. 4. Online consultation via text (like on Practo) if meds are needed. You’re not alone — help is available in ways that suit you. Let me know if you'd like app links or a simple tracker.
