Whenever i exhale a breathe it feels like my heart is going to stop beating, it seems like anxiety but all i am is worried and cant sleep.

Self awareness: If you are obsessed with your heartbeat or other bodily functions it is often a cover for other unresolved issues. See your doc for a basic checkup & if you are healthy they can refer you to a life coach/therapist to explore this. Life can get better if you learn ways to master life's stressors.
