  • I have weird chest pain?

    Hello, As there is no objective evidence of medical conditions contributing to chest pain, unfortunately related to anxiety only, you need to get on medications for anxiety. Hydroxyzine alone is not adequate. You need to see a psychiatrist (starting on SSRI or SNRI  antidepressants used for anxiety too in addition to Hydroxyzine). Also, you need to see a therapist one on one for supportive therapy and CBT. After 12 weeks of CBT, you will see lots of improvement. Take care, Dr. Chinthala READ MORE
