How can you tell if chest pain, dizziness, vomiting and numbness is all just from anxiety/ stress or if it's a real problem?

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Pain: and dizziness are "real problems" weather they come from a physical cause or a psychological one or a combo of both. Please start w/seeing your doctor to make sure all is well medically. After that consider seeing a mental health pro such as a clinical psychologist who treats mood disorders. Peace and good health.
