Hello,
           As mentioned above these are all classic symptoms of an anxiety attack.. I have been suffering from them for over a year now and I am so sorry that you are experiencing this as well... Some things to do are to focus on your breathing try counting to 4 while taking a deep breath in through your nose and then counting to 4 while blowing out through your mouth it can help calm you down.. It takes time to learn how to control your anxiety but you have to work at it and remember that you are stronger than the anxiety.. I also recommend meditation and emotional freedom technique also referred to as EFT look these up and try them out.. Also therapy is a huge help in dealing with anxiety... I am here if you ever need someone to talk with which is sometimes what we all need to get through an attack.. Best of luck to you!
