I have almost identical symptoms. I called my nurse earlier and she said I described to her classic anxiety attack. I take buspirone twice a day, but still get random, occasional attacks. I have a xanax prescription as well, but only use those when absolutely nothing else will help.

Everyone is different, but I tend to do better if I - find something to keep me busy - take a warm shower - or talk to someone who understands my situation.

Best of luck to you!

So Sorry. It’s awful. Sometimes feels like a body can’t survive it. Meds help. Quetiapine helped me sleep 7 hours, wake up ok.

I’ve got that exact fear feeling and butterflies in my chest today, it’s horrible. I had a busy day yesterday and didn’t have a very good night and although I went out this morning I’ve come home feeling a bit nauseous with that exact feeling in my chest. I had it a bit when I was out but I was with a friend and it wore off a little til I got back home, when it wears off my chest my back muscles tighten up.

I hope you’re feeling a bit better now as I know this post was a couple of weeks ago
