I get that all the time. We're anxious about something and worried still about something. It's easier said then done when someone says to relax. Like yes I know I need to but it's not that easy. It's not heart related but we only think it bc it's in our chest. But if you're not having any pain except for tightness of chest, it's anxiety and nothing more...
