Anxiety isn’t just emotional—it can feel physical, too. Symptoms like chest tightness, a racing heart, shortness of breath, dizziness, or trouble sleeping can be overwhelming and sometimes feel like a medical emergency. Knowing what’s normal for you—and when to seek care—can make a difference.
At Las Palmas Del Sol Healthcare, our emergency care teams are here to help assess symptoms, rule out serious conditions, and guide next steps when anxiety feels more intense or unfamiliar.
Seek emergency care right away if you experience for the first time or aren’t sure of the cause:
• Chest pain or tightness
• Rapid or pounding heartbeat
• Shortness of breath
• Dizziness or fainting
• Thoughts of harming yourself
For ongoing support, talk with your primary care provider or a mental health professional about ways to manage anxiety, including therapy, breathing techniques, lifestyle changes, and medication when appropriate.
