Yes: Anxiety can cause the symptoms you mentioned. It can be bad enough to be mistaken for heart attack. You may visit this site for info. It would be prudent to get counselling from a psychiatrist as you may need medication in addition to talk therapy. https://www.health.harvard.edu/heart-health/takotsubo-cardiomyopathy-broken-heart-syndrome
