What Could Be The Cause Of Stress And Anxiety?

Okay, well im not sure whats going on with me. Lately random sharp pains have been going through my body. (My lower back, my shoulder, my hands). My heart races fast almost all the time and my hand shake all the time. I had thought it was because of anxiety or something. I just dont know. Im scared of being around people. Getting up in class scares the shit outta me. I d rather skip school everyday than go class. I always feel imma be embarrassed or something. I dont know, but like sometimes its just hard to move. All i wanna do is lay down and sleep. I had once thought it was because of stress. Im always stressed, i worry about everything and i overthink everything. Sometimes all i wanna do is eat, other times i dont want to ever eat again. I do smoke cigarettes however... Could that be the problem ? I mean im sad all the time so i gotta have something to cope with life... I dont know. I always have this feeling that im alone. Like no one cares. But ionce i was in class and i thought i was dying dude. My heart hurted so bad, like it was clinching or something and i was sweating... I thought i was gonna faint. That hasnt happened in awhile though. I mean just please tell me what you think.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Worrying and unnecessary thinking always creates anxiety. Of course, anxiety is stress related. You have not given your age. In any case, you are definitely anxious. The sudden high feeling is called panic attack. Panic always comes to people with anxiety disorder.

You can confirm that you have anxiety disorder if you have atleast half of the below symptoms.


Are you constantly tense, worried, or on edge?
Does your anxiety interfere with your work, school, or family responsibilities?
Are you plagued by fears that you know are irrational, but can’t shake?
Do you believe that something bad will happen if certain things aren’t done a certain way?
Do you avoid everyday situations or activities because they cause you anxiety?
Do you experience sudden, unexpected attacks of heart-pounding panic?
Do you feel like danger and catastrophe are around every corner?

You should analyze the cause of your problem. Consult a psychologist soon.
If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
