Your user name may very well be the reason you can't distinguish between
Anxiety and a Heart Attack. The more we fight the symptoms, the worse it
gets. Learning to trust your instincts in how anxiety works as well as having
had your heart checked out should help some. Learning new methods or tools
in controlling your stress levels can reverse the symptoms. Getting medication
and having therapy can help reduce your fears which in turn reduce the panic and
attacks. Knowing the triggers that start your panic can help you avoid them.
Reading a book by Dr. Claire Weekes' "Hope & Help for Your Nerves" can help
you distinguish between the heart and your over sensitized nervous system.
Her videos are free on YouTube. I wish you well xx
