I had a huge panic attack about 6months ago, came like a lightning from clear sky. Never had panic attacks or anxiety before that. My panic attack manifested itself in what I thought was a heart attack. Went to the hospital and did an EKG they saw nothing wrong and told me to visit a clinic if it happened again... The week that followed was the worst thing in my life,constant anxiety and chest pains I honestly ate nothing for 1week, called in sick to work and didn't really tell anyone. Went back to work and it happened again after 2weeks. I went to a small 1doctor clinic and he did some blood work but couldn't find anything wrong with me and stated that it could be related to stress. Never once had anyone told me about that it could be panic attacks. I didn't know anything about mental illness so I thought I was dying. I quit my job explainig everything to the boss, she says that it really sounds like panic attacks.

Doctors seem to have no fucking clue about mental health.

My anxiety is very physical, I have little to no apitite and I just feel like there is something major wrong, doctors don't want to investigate deeper. (Swedish public healthcare)

I just ordered a full upper body MRI for 2500$ really look forward to having it done. I will finally be able to know if I'm dying or not.
