hi there...
i dont know if we've ever *spoken* but this really caught my eye.
im 30 years old now but my anxiety started when i was 17. i had the EXACT same symptoms. i did the EXACT same things, such as checking my pulse regularly. i was always aware of strange feelings in my left arm. i ALWAYS thought i was having a heart attack when this happened. i went to the hospital numerous times and was given all sorts of tests. every time i was told i was having panic attacks.
EVENTUALLY, i was put on anxiety meds and anti-depressants.
i still have the occasional panic attack but nothing like they used to be.
try seeing your doc about meds to help control this?
im so sorry youre going through it. i know how horrible and exhausting it is.
much love and hope for you.
xx
