Anxiety Disorder - Physical Symptoms
I�ve been having trouble breathing, rapid heart beats, and I�ve been totally out of breath whenever I do anything cardio such as even walking up a bunch of stairs.
But can anxiety cause you to feel totally lazy and winded and make your heart beat faster and tired? If this anxiety disorder continues, can I permanently damage my heart or lungs?
I hope I can help. Ordinarily, I am not a big fan of pharmaceuticals, but when I found myself in a similar predicament my doctor prescribed a low dosage anti-depressant and I was able to function until I could address the root cause of the anxiety disorder. A pill is by no means the answer, any more that a splint is the cure for a broken leg; but it can be of some temporary help.
