I also have bp with anxiety (they go together quite a lot) & have physical symptoms like you were writing about--the chest pains, upset stomach, "buzzing" in my head, not able to concentrate, etc. I also feel it much more when I have to leave the house or talk on the phone. I have Xanax but don't take it during the day due to the sleepiness it causes.

I find if I make myself do things outside the home, the symptoms start to die down. Yesterday I went out & found that if I am concentrating on something else the symptoms diminish. When I focus on them, they seem to flare up worse.

So I'm making myself leave the house once a day. Right now I'm getting ready to grocery shop & my mouth is dry, I feel like I'm on alert mode--ready to do something huge but it's just going to the store. My reactions often are not in line with what the situation is. I overreact & feel things too strongly. But I am proud of myself when I can overcome the physical sensations.--Suzy
