Feeling really anxious

Recommended Posts

I'll admit I've been under alot of stress lately but today I feel awful.  I have a fluttering in my chest, I feel sick to my stomach and a little lightheaded.  I though maybe I was hungry so I ate but now I feel worse.  I also feel like Im going to burst into tears.

What are you thinking about that is triggering the anxiety?

We had a heart scare with my son a few weeks ago.  Then he had to quarentine because he was considered a close contact at school.  My sister is going through a depressive episode and my husband is miserable at work and the job he thought he was going to get fell through.  But I keep getting this fluttering in my chest and it's freaking me out.

Stress can do a lot to you and you have had your share of it. I remember for the period September 2012 through August 2013, my mother, then father and then my uncle all passed away and it was a stressful period for me too.

It sounds like you're going through a lot and stress can definitely cause everything you've mentioned. I've found stress leads to physical symptoms leads to anxiety leads to stress and on and on. I've definitely experienced a fluttering feeling before. It's frightening for sure. I've even asked my doctor about it and he told me very likely a stress/anxiety response.
