Is it normal to feel like you cant breathe and your heart rate slows down by the minute? can you die? i have small chest presures. i have anxiety.

The symptoms you: mention are not normal. Please see you doc to rule out any medical conditions and then get help from a mental health professional for your anxiety. Please do not rely on medication alone. Good psychotherapy and learning stress management can help greatly. Peace and good health.
