do I have anxiety

[JMS05]

I have been experiencing heavy chest, muscle spasms, feeling of tightness in the head, and just havn't be feeling normal. When I think about it, I start to think there is something seriously wrong get scared and start to freak out. Do you think this could be cause by anxiety? I am in school but I didn't think I was too stressed out. I used to have a problem with chest pain about 5 yrs ago when I was previously in college and the doctors never found anything wrong other than my heart speeding up sometimes

Anxiety can cause those symptoms in my experience with this.  You said you were checked out in college and everything was medically ok.  Have you had anxiety issues since then?  Have you ever been in counseling for your anxiety?  Have you talked to your doctor about this recently?  There are ways to confront and deal with this when this becomes a systemic problem.   Keep us posted!
