Without being able: To examine you ; take a more full history, can't rule out medical causes.Note that you have asthma. It could be musculoskeletal. However, panic, anxiety ; depression can also sometimes contribute to chest pain. Encourage you to see your physician to get a better assessment on this.

Get checked: By a physician before you assume the pain is due to stress or depression. If no physical cause is found explore psychotherapy to help reduce depression and stress.
