Hello all!
I just wanted to draw everyone's attention to the vast amount of chest pain posts of late.
They are numerous and all replies are the same: "I get this too!"
We all need to take note. Chest pains are one of the most common side effects of anxiety! They can be caused by stress, indigestion, muscle tightness, acid reflux, heartburn, trapped gas, prolonged hyperventilation... the list is endless!
Please, everyone, this is entirely common and normal physical behaviour for people in our situation.
I myself had some sharp, stabbing chest pains this afternoon. I ate, burped and felt fine again.
If you have been tested and told that your heart is fine, relax...
Breathe, everyone. You're alright :)
