Hey y'all I'm 19 years old. I went to the hospital for massive chest pain dizziness and nausea. They diagnosed me with anxiety. I now have troubles just sitting on the Couch trying to watch a tv show. This has really affected my daily life and I'm sick of being on medicine all the time. Any tips or easier medicine recommendations?

I get the same thing (except nausea). I've got panic disorder with agoraphobia.
I'm new to medicine. I just started Lexapro 5 days ago.

What really helps me is doing deep relaxation. Try to do it 3 times a day. I use the videos from the youtube channel (TheHonestGuys). Just search deep relaxation and it should be the first video.
Those guys have a lot of good videos. I promise it will relax you.

I agree with the suggestion to do relaxation exercises. I would also suggest that you be open to the possibility that medication may help. Remember, your doctors are your allies, there to help you. Welcome!
