Don't give up Johnnie! I have been battling with anxiety for years. You are NOT dieing! Get that out of your head! These are all symptoms of anxiety that you have described! You CAN overcome this! I am no expert but I really think you are suffering from panic disorder along with general anxiety. I highly recommend going and talking to a therapist about your issues. Also I have started reading a book that many others on here have recommended, called Self Help for your Nerves by Claire Weekes.

Dr Claire Weekes books explain everything you need to know in order to recover, stop fighting, there's no battle, you've just become stuck in the fear cycle, get a copy of the book xxx

I totally understand Jonnie1234 . This last 2 weeks my anxiety has been horrific , so over it . I had a new symptom yesterday . Woke up fine then I had the worst spacey feeling , everything I touched was wrong , making mistakes, vision weird , and felt like I was going to have a seizure or something . It was the worst feeling ever

Feeling like this since January, we can't give up, we can overcome this. I am also reading that book. Try deep breathing, it does help. Do it like an exercise 3x/day, breathe in for four seconds, hold for three and blow out for four. It relaxes the stress after you practice for a while ( part of cognitive therapy). Supposed to slow your heart down.

Living with anxiety is harder than people who don't suffer from it will ever know. I too became tired of my anxiety. It's like living in your own personal hell alone in the world regardless of how many people surround you. My mom said I had the "crazys" for lack of a better word. My symptoms created a mind that was an undesirable place to dwell. I wanted it to just go away already! So I did what many of us do when we're at the end of our own strength, I sought God. I started praying and reading my bible because I refused to let some annoying diagnosis run my life. I'm glad I got tired and came to the father. Since then I have gained a lot of the control in my life back and when I'm feeling weak, I ask for more of His strength. I hope you find strength and hope in this👑💫psalm 23 always makes me feel better😊

If you're getting palpitations and racing heart, your doctor might prescribe you something. My son is on medication for it. Try to stop fighting it. It's probably making you more anxious. Just go with it, hopefully it will lessen. I'd definitely see your doctor though and be totally honest with him. Good luck! Hope you feel back to normal soon.

Please talk to your doctor. The bad thing about anxiety is that it feeds on itself. The more we give it the more it takes. When you can't calm down your mind, it's time to try something new. I have had this happen to me and it scared me so bad I had to go to the ER. They look at me and say, 'why are you here?'. People truly don't understand if they have never experienced it. Medication worked for me. I take a beta blocker, anti depressant, and anti anxiety like Zoloft. Once you are on the medication you can learn how to manage your anxiety to better cope with it. It's not easy but it is a learning experience. This will not kill you. You have to believe that! Talk to your doctor and if they don't listen, find someone who will. We have all suffered far too long with this. Be well soon!

Psalm 91 is one that brings new hope into my life read out loud.

Just remember healing takes time but it can be done trust me...i was pretty bad before depression no eating or showering and big panick attacks plus hypochadria and all type of anxiety ptsd and little by little with me pouring out and reading scripture there is a healing my heart that is changing day by day...healing takes time but we can be healed.Just have a little faith.

I honestly hope you never go back to weed perhaps this time for change there's a few people who have had your experience but even then u can come back to be normal trust and believe.

No my cousins didn't want to take meds he felt like he was loosing it even more so he stoped said he prayed then he focus on hobbies he enjoyed to keep the mind distracted in due time once he started noticing the symptoms he would ignore carry on little by little he forgot he suffer from that everyone copes with it differently recently I bought this humidifier that's has essential oils that help with anxiety on Amazon they sale a lot of great things but as for me reading and praying and actually taking lil road trips help seeing the beauty of the world being a bit adventurous helps to get your mind off the problem.

Hi Johnnie! You are not alone. I used to smoke a lot of weed everyday at university. After I stopped I became very paranoid and anxious. Ever since , I have had small bursts of anxiety here and there. I never knew what anxiety was back then. 3 years later (2 weeks ago) it has come back with a vengeance and hasn't gone. I'm losing the plot. I've started taking magnesium today which someone on here recommended as it helps tiredness, weakness etc. I'll let you know how it goes. Try breathing exercising and guided meditation x

You need to work on relaxation to calm your nerves down . You've had tests on your heart so you know it's working fine . The heart is a strong organ and as much as you think you are putting it under pressure and something will happen , it very likely won't . Sport enthusiasts have racing hearts daily , extreme adrenaline junkies do it for fun . You need to accept what you are feeling is just symptoms of a stressed body and mind and take the focus off how you feel . It is very hard but until you do your symptoms won't ease , you are keeping them lingering and intensifying and 1 symptom will become many . I also recommend Claire weekes books and ' at last a life by Paul David , they will help you .

There is no quick fix , it takes time for your body to calm and recover , you are keeping it in a heightened state and stuck in a vicious circle . The only way out is to go through it and you hold the key .

Don't battle with it , let your body do what it's doing and learn to accept it , you need to reduce the fear and be ok with it , anxiety will lose its power over you . Distract yourself . It IS a very hard thing to do because you feel like your dying and exhausted but you are also strong .

Your body knows what to do if you let it , you are fighting against it and telling your brain you are in danger so it's kicking fight or flight to protect you , you are stuck in heightened anxiety so you need to try and relax and calm all your nerves down .

Yes my symptoms eased from the point you are at , I'm still in recovery though and it takes time . If you continue to focus on how you feel you will get more and more symptomatic and it's harder to climb back up

Look on you tube for a guided meditation to listen to daily . It takes practice and your thoughts will race off or you'll focus on how you feel and want to switch it off but keep at it , it does help

Anxiety is anxiety , whether it was a trauma , smoking weed etc , the fact is you have turned your anxiety into a disorder by fearing your symptoms . There's only one way out and that's accepting how you feel and stop battling with it . The guy that wrote at last a life smoked weed and he is full recovered because he gave up the battle with how he felt , feel it and go with it , your body knows what to do if you let it

I've been there many times in the years I've suffered , it will pass , you really have to stop focusing and monitoring how you feel , I know it's hard because you can't ignore your heart pounding and racing away but you can stop feeding the fear , if you freak out then your body will react , stay calm , accept it as best you can because it is temporary and harmless

There is no time scale but the sooner you accept it's just anxiety symptoms and the sooner you will make steps towards recovery . I know it's not what you want to hear , you want the symptoms gone already but until you start calming your body they won't ease . I had multiple symptoms 24/7 and I worked on the strategies , the majority eased by 3 months and the rest I learnt to not care if they were there or not . Read at last a life or Claire weekes books , they will help you understand what's happening and why , give you strategies to help recover . Anxiety doesn't tend to come out the blue , there's underlying factors

I've been anxious since childhood due to something traumatic , it didn't manifest into a disorder until my first panic attack which was after a smoke in my twenties , I'd smoked it for a while before that and continued after because it helped me , it was my escape but I did stop smoking it , it wasn't the weed that caused my panic attack

It will feel like it's getting worse because you are monitoring it daily to see if it's still there and then get fearful because it hasn't gone , you are feeding that fear . I've had shallow fast breathing , rapid breathing ...... it does feel like you can't breathe and you tend to hold your breath , the reason you are dizzy is because you aren't breathing properly and restricting oxygen . Practice belly breathing and relaxation CDs help . You've had tests on your heart and they are clear , you can keep chasing for a medical diagnosis and put yourself through unnecessary tests , go for a second and third opinion but if they say it's anxiety then try accepting it as anxiety , work on calming your nerves . I honestly do understand where you are coming from , I've been there several times until I gained knowledge and had therapy . I wish I had the help and support back then .

Your dr would have intervened and ordered further testing if he felt it was a serious heart condition . We just can't accept it's anxiety because how can it make us feel so unwell right ?

It's a personal choice on taking medication . I chose not to because I already feared my symptoms and didn't want to be dealing with side effects too and then weaning off them . I tried to keep myself occupied and outward focus instead of inward . ive had the racing heart 24/7 for weeks and I'm still here . If I had everything I diagnosed myself with I'd be dead by now
