Chest pain is a common physical symptom of anxiety, in addition to other symptoms like raised heart rates, shortness of breath, hyperventilation and more. Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts, and physical changes like increased blood pressure and heart rate; it’s considered a future-oriented, long-acting response broadly focused on a diffuse threat.1 Anxiety can manifest in a variety of ways, from anxiety attacks, enacting the fight-or-flight response, to raised heart rates and cortisol (a stress hormone). AMFM Mental Health Treatment has over a decade of experience treating anxiety disorders, and offers a free anxiety hotline that’s available 24/7.
Anxiety can manifest in many physical ways throughout the body, depending upon the person and the situation. Because anxiety activates the fight-or-flight response in the nervous systems, the physical symptoms of anxiety may feel life-threatening in the moment. If you are unsure of whether or not your chest pain is related to anxiety, seeking medical care or medical advice is always recommended.
However, if you have experienced anxiety attacks, panic attacks or anxiety symptoms in the past, you may be able to recognize them in advance:
If you’re experiencing common and frequent anxiety symptoms, both medical care as well as mental health treatment may be helpful to provide you with a proper treatment plan.
We accept most major insurance providers and can check your coverage levels for you.
If we are not an appropriate provider for care, we will assist in finding a care provider that can help.
If you are familiar with the physical symptoms of anxiety and are looking to manage your anxiety as it arises, there are some techniques and strategies you can use to reduce anxiety. Deep breathing and breathing exercises can help to bring the body out of fight-or-flight, and to calm the nervous system. Other wellness activities and relaxation techniques like journaling and ensuring you’re getting enough sleep can help reduce anxiety preventatively, by emphasizing the mind-body connection.
There are so many causes of chest pain, and frequently, people who experience chest pain misattribute the pain to a heart attack or other heart-related health conditions.
Chest pain is a common symptom of heart disease, coronary artery disease, heart attack, or cardiac chest pain. If you are diagnosed with any of these health conditions and are experiencing chest pain, please dial 911 for emergency medical assistance.
Anxiety-related chest pain can often be misinterpreted as the symptom of a heart attack. For this reason, it’s important to know more about heart attack symptoms and cardiovascular heart problems, in order to differentiate from chest tightness due to anxiety.
According to the CDC,2 the major symptoms of a heart attack are:

Inpatient Treatment for Anxiety refers to residential, or live-in mental health care programming in a facility. Inpatient treatment allows you or your loved one to engage in interpersonal therapy with licensed therapists and group therapy sessions, while healing in a safe and supportive environment. Inpatient mental health programming for anxiety usually also provides the highest level of care, with 24/7 clinical care, psychiatry and medication management, and personalized treatment plans for lasting well-being.
Outpatient Treatment (IOP or PHP) programs offer comprehensive mental health care at a more flexible schedule, with both in-person and virtual options available. Unlike residential care, intensive outpatient treatment can offer online therapy and programming, but without 24/7 clinical teams on staff. Outpatient treatment plans still offer a combination of individual and group therapy, through a holistic approach, but in a less structured environment.
If you have been struggling with one or more of the anxiety symptoms we have mentioned, know that you’re not alone. A Mission For Michael Mental Health Treatment has admission counselors available around the clock to help determine which treatment options can assist you in managing anxiety. Contact us today to begin your confidential and free mental health assessment.
Yes, most health insurance companies provide some form of coverage for anxiety treatment. This often includes both inpatient and outpatient care, depending on your symptoms. Coverage generally applies to therapy, counseling, and medication management services. Your plan may have limitations, exclusions, or required authorizations.
We encourage you to verify your coverage with AMFM Mental Health Treatment to understand the full scope of your benefits. This is especially true if you’re looking for specific treatments, like postpartum depression treatments or persistent depressive disorder treatment options.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is most commonly referred to as “talk therapy,” and is designed to help process emotions. Qualified professionals offer psychological therapy to move forward with healthy ways of engaging in interpersonal relationships and alleviating physical and emotional distress.
A crisis is defined by the National Library of Medicine “as an overwhelming event, which can include divorce, violence, the passing of a loved one, or the discovery of a serious illness.” The goal of crisis intervention is to provide safety and reduce any potential harm to an individual undergoing a crisis.
