Suggest Treatment For Severe Stress, Pressure In The Chest And Depression

Consultation
Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
Your chest discomfort is most likely due to one of two things. First is a COPD exacerbation. This is the most serious, and you need immediate medical evaluation by a primary care doctor for a physical exam, bloodwork, EKG, and other basic tests. Another possibility once medical causes are ruled out is that this is a somatic symptom of anxiety. This can be treated with cognitive behavioral therapy. I recommend seeking out a therapist in your area. If you cannot find one, I do offer text-based therapy via asking a question my private link at this website, which I will paste below. But the first step is a complete medical workup by your primary care doctor.
