For me, my heart starts racing, then I feel a chill, feel weak, sometimes get dizzy, headache, intense nervous feeling, clammy hands and like princess says you try to take a deep breath then your chest starts to feel heavy or pain then I start to panic about that on top of the initial freak out, I hate it but I refuse to take meds, youre not alone, hope this helps.

My symptoms are:

Heart beating quickly also known as "palpitations".
Shaking hands, arms, feet or entire body.
Shortness of breath:
Taking deep breaths do not feel "satisfying", or having to take deep breaths often.
Chest pain.
