Question:
So... I have this major attack of pain in my heart, ribs... pretty much everywhere. Can anyone help me here?
So this pain i have, it pretty much pops up at a random time and its excruciatingly painful. its like someone is poking me with thick needles inside and out. i'm only 16 and my parents wont take me to a doctor to get it checked out so i want to find out what it is on my own with some help of you guys. anyway, i usually get this pain when im stressed out and i've had it for almost half a year now. it comes at random times along with huge headaches and sometimes it hurts so much i can't move. I started getting this pain in my stomach and then it gradually moved to my ribs, then to my heart, and gradually everywhere else. i can even feel it in my shoulders, feet, hands, and anything else you can think of. I wanna find out what this is really badly before it gets any worse. Anyone have any ideas of what it is or how i can start looking it up somewhere?

Answers:
It sounds very much like an anxiety attack, which can cause chest pains, headaches, muscle tension, and stomach aches. Anxiety disorders can be debilitating and this needs to be addressed by a doctor. If left untreated, it can lead to high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, ulcers, depression, and more. If your parents won't take you to the doctor, talk to your counselor at school.
