I'm sorry for posting this thread. I know that this is not the right site to ask but my curiosity is really bothering me and I need an answer about this serious illness that I'm having right now. In these past few days, I noticed that I have this anxiety called " Chronic anxiety" and honestly I don't know what it does to me until I keep suffering from extreme panic/nervousness even though It's not a big deal. I also monitored my heart rate and It goes like 172-220 which is obviously not a good sign for health. If someone at you here experienced this kind of mental illness that I have right now, Do you have any tips to get rid of this chronic anxiety disorder that I am bearing right now? Thank you in advance.

Yes: Please visit a doctor immediately. We do not offer medical advice on this site. You should not try to self-medicate either. Proper clinical treatment will certainly make you better.

@waternohitter, you should see a psychiatrist, they are medical doctors that have studied for additional years on problems with the brain and how these problems affect the body. There are medications that may stop the symptoms you described, but it is up to the specialist doctor to determine what may be causing the problems and if medication is required. You may have to try several medications before you find what works for you, don't give up. But do see one very soon.

Good luck to you!

A heart rate of 170-220 at any physical effort level less than maximum effort sprinting up a steep hill indicates a serious problem. Doctor. Now. If you cannot find a psychiatrist, go to a general practitioner. But go.

And good luck.
