Idk if this could be an effect of finally going sober, but it really seems like it. I never had the anxiety this bad. I feel nauseous and sick. And the chest pain is much worse than normal.
I am going to therapy, before you ask and I have other issues we’re working on rn
Update:
Just had a panic attack so bad I almost passed out. I will get help as soon as I can
Hey @Val_2024, anxiety ia part of the process. You just gotta let it run its course. At least thats what I do. I sit my ass down and let it pass. Sometimes it takes a while and sometimes its quick. As your days go by it will get better. 5 years later and I still get anxiety attacks… palpitations and all. Dont give up!
Im actually awake because I’m anxious lol. 
listening to the bible while I’m here too.
There’s nothing quite like being woken up by crippling fear, but having no idea what the hell it is you’re afraid of. 
My anxiety was made worse the more I drank, and then tripled for the first few months after quitting. Side affect of PAWS. It should ease up a bit. But glad you’re already taking the right steps and going to therapy. 
Sorry to hear. When I first got sober, my anxiety and panic did ramp up, but it settled down after awhile. It is a physical change for your body mind.
This often helps me when I need to focus and center and am in a panic. 
Hope you are doing okay. Breathe, you are safe.
I keep it in a folder in my phone. But a google search will bring you to it, where you can save it.
