Can this really just be from anxiety?

I have been suffering from anxiety and panic attacks for the past year....I have severe chest pains daily, even when not having a panic attack or feeling like I am anxious, my doctors cannot find anything wrong with me, but the chest pains are so bad I have had to go to the ER, where again they don't find anything wrong with me. Could real pain occur from my anxiety?

I feel like I am going crazy, and feel like I will never get any better.
 
Real pain does indeed occur from anxiety. I too went to ER for the same reasons twice in one year. I have started taking zoloft last week. Hopefully I will get better. Anxiety has caused hypochondria in me. Every day I think of and worry about something else. It feels really awful.
 
thank you for posting so quickly. I hate this feeling of not being myself. I just started taking ativan, is helping somewhat. Just want to conquer this feeling somehow.
 
how old are you?

i am 38 and going through an early peri menopause, i believe most of my symptoms are related to that.... do you think you might have any other symptoms that might be menopause related?
 
I am going to be 40 in April.
I did not even think about that it could be peri menopause.
Not sure of the symptoms for that will look it up.
