Why does this heartbreak feel like getting stabbed

Why does this heartbreak feel like getting stabbed. It’s like I’m having a heart attack again. My chest hurts so bad. Before I didn’t even realize it was from heartbreak thought I was dying ngl. My anxiety is crazy.
The only thing that kinda helps is numbing it with alcohol but I don’t even drink like that. Can’t even finish a beer.
I know this will pass eventually but I’m so done rn...

Don’t rely on stuff like eating or drinking to cope. Hit up your people chill with friends or fam and do things that’ll help you heal. Maybe work out or go on a walk.

I feel like the pain’s just my body’s way of reacting when I’m heartbroken. Happened to me months back too. I got so worried I saw a cardiologist got a second opinion did an echo treadmill stress test all the tests. Everything came back clear. The doctor was annoyedsaid there’s nothing wrong with me which is why I went for that second opinion.

Feeling the same but it's been a 2 mons on-and-off thing. Take care of you love you and be gentle with yourself.

I'm tryna deal with it while it's still fresh and new. Feels like my chest or my heart's crushed like something heavy's pressing on it. Not fun at all. wish I could just feel numb cause it's too much

Just breathe take it slow, and with time the feels will fade till it’s just a distant memory. Stay strong take care of yourself even when it’s tough.
