Hi there.
I am a 21 year old male. I am iffy on my daily activities. I spend a ton of time on the computer, but I still go out and do things. Skateboard, hang with friends, etc. Ever since I was about 16 years old, I started having Panic attack issues. My heart races, my throat kind of tightens, it feels like I cant breathe, I am afraid something is going wrong with me (medically) and I am afraid I am dying. (Having a heart attack, Cardiac Arrest, etc) I have no family history of Heart Attacks, or any heart issues. I do however have a family history of anxiety and panic attack issues. My mom has them, My sisters, and myself. None of this really started until I started distancing myself from my friends and spending more time in my room and on the computer. I don't smoke, I don't drink, nor do I do any drugs. I am just afraid of what is going on with me. I am afraid something is medically wrong with me. It tends to happen more in large areas, such as grocery stores, etc. I start to feel like i'm going to faint, my heart starts racing, etc. I have never passed out though. I just keep having these symptoms. I do exercise. I do 200 sit-ups a day, I do around 500 Jumping Jacks per day, 200 push-ups per day, and I play basketball, and I walk about 2-3 miles every night. What is the likleyness of someone my age, with what i described, having heart issues? Is it more than likely anxiety-panic?
Please let me know.
I need help!
Thank you.
