Hi xogemxo, that feeling you are experiencing is coming from an adrenaline rush from your anxiety. When anxious we tend to not breathe properly either holding our breathe at times or panting (mouth breathing). It throws the oxygen level off and we end up getting these weird sensations from the chest into our head. It affects the extremities as well because the adrenaline is preparing us for fight or flight response. By your body making you respond to a sudden breath, it pulls you out of that phase. Our body automatically protects us from harm, it's our mind that sends us the negative thoughts. Take care.

That feeling faint is one of the symptoms high on the list of anxiety. Again it has to do with improper breathing as well as needing to hydrate. I've experienced it myself and it is scary but I use it as a reminder to check my breathing and start hydrating. Hope this helps some.
