Hi dear. I had gone through your query. I understand your concern. All symptoms that have you mentioned are due to stress. Stress and anxiety will lead to physical/psychological symptoms. Physical symptoms include sweating/palpitation/rapid heart rate/breathing difficulties etc. When it rapidly arises then lead to panic attacks. Anxiety is due to psychological or biological causes require treatment. Biological therapy like medicines will helpful. SSRI and benzodiazepine will be useful. Exercise and meditation can help. Relaxations method like deep breathing can help. Ensure proper sleep and diet. Consult psychiatrist and get further assistance. Still if you have a query then feel free to ask. . Thank you.
