My chest doesn't feel tight ever, but I constantly feel nervous. I feel butterflies all the time. I feel shaky and tense. I have constant obsessions about how others think of me and the failure to fail with bills, school, work etc. I can understand this constant feeling. It never goes away. I as well can never relax. My brain never shuts off. I agree it sucks. I also am not on any meds. Maybe that's our problem. I have had a few panic attacks but I'm not sure if they are "panic attacks" I don't get the feeling I'm going to die or anything. Just mainly I get completely crazy, hyperventilate, cry, repeat myself, talk extremely fast, and basically lose control. Hopefully we find a solution. I am thinking about seeing someone but worried about missing work and looking like a bad employee or what if my insurance doesn't cover it etc.
