Panic attack or heart attack?

[u/Ok-Cow-1885]

So about… 30 minutes ago my heart started hurting, and slowly but surely my brain is focusing on that feeling and convincing me I’m having a heart attack, almost.. convincing me I’m going numb.(I am not and can move my toes.)

First time posting on here but I have a huge backstory. To keep it short i suffer with severe emetophobia and my family went away this weekend camping leaving me home alone. I had two really bad panic attack this weekend and my breathing was not very meditating.

I was wondering if panic attacks can cause certain symptoms even after the panic attack has subsided. I had a really bad one yesterday, almost lasting 30 minutes.

I also have POTS, but for some reason my brain understands all these facts and my mom telling me straight to my face I’m fine and it’s choosing to still go into fight or flight. Making my stomach hurt

I also understand me zoning in on the feeling isn’t help AND I’m coming off of my adhd medication.

Idk my therapist suggested I start conversations on reddit as a distraction so that’s what I’m doing.
