So yesterday im with friends drinking been a little stressed out about a break up But lastnight i was was drinking alcohol and i got this feeling that my head was gettinf tight and a feeling that would come like i was going to pass pass out my legs felt weak and i was forcing myself to act normal i was feeling my pulse in my body in my back and behind my head it was worrying me then also i was talking to my friend while drinking and i felt like i got this quick attack in my heart that made me cough like it was forcing to pump it made me more worry and i went to put my cup down and went to the barhroom and said what is going on with me and my body i feel like im going to die it comes so fast out of no where then it leaves and i force my self to fight this but i don't think its something to do with anxiety because anxiety its all in your mind but this is not my mind its physical sympthoms but after it happens i do think about it and my nervous system starts making me shake and just wanna leave or run honestly i know i seen docters they said i was fine and my heart aswell but i feel like something is causing all this and its making me really scared and worried i dont want to die in my 20s about something i cant find out yet i feel like something is wrong and i could feel it has to do with my nervous system or my brain or heart something is causing i know im not going crazy . Like say this i found something out about someone or argue i get this energy in my body like nervous feeling going up to my head and neck that i cant relax my body i cant be calm at all its something thats happening to my body that i just want to burst out and tell people how i feel like right now im sorry abour writing once again but im in my feelings and this got me down im not the same anymore i try to act the same and tell people im fine mean while im just holding it all in pain , feelings, sympthoms everything in the book im physically tierd and mentally tierd this is why im always out trying to have fun every day because you only get one life and i keep worrying about dying so i try to do so much things i can . From Johnnie ugh i had to let this out on here.

Anxiety displays millions of physical symptoms. The main problem yes is all in your head but anxiety causes your body to display physical symptoms like arms /legs feeling weak/numb or stress headaches or feelings of heart palpitations. I get feelings like you just described of your heart feeling like it's skipping a beat and making you cough all the time and I've had my heart checked out as well. Nothing's wrong🤷🏻‍♀️ next time I'd try to go sit down and try some breathing exercises or something. I do know that alcohol makes anxiety worse for a lot of people so that was probably the trigger plus the extra stress from the breakup. Hope this helped! Have a good one :)

First off i want to commend you on saying that you still just are always out trying to have fun because you only have one life to live so you try to do so much or much as you can. Thats an awesome step forward that you dont even realize and i say that beause me of us including myself find that step so hard to make. And just speaking for myself i have allowed this anxiety to rule me and trap me mentally that i have forgotten how to live. It has robbed me of my happiness and peace of mind that i am now fighting back for. And something as simple as going out to even enjoy a drink or two or go to a bar to listen to music or treat myself to something that i like i haven't done that in so long because im constantly thinking about death. But i also can relate to how alcohol can make you feel like crap the next day. It makes me feel stomach upset, and generally ill. And its wierd because before i was dealing with anxiety i can occasionally have a drink and didnt feel bad like i do now. It has ultimately led me to stop drinking all together. I haven't had a drink in several months now.
