I'm experiencing this thing where I'll suddenly get really scared out of nowhere, and when that happens, my heart starts racing, and then it's like I have a bit of trouble catching my breath. Plus, my legs and the palms of my hands get super cold. Is there a reason why all of these things are happening together? Should I be worried?

In some time I will get fear then getting fear ,heart beat increase as time little breathing problem leg palm get cold It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks. To help manage these symptoms, you can try taking a medication called lorazepam (brand name: Ativan). The usual dosage for anxiety is 1-2 mg, taken 2-3 times a day as needed. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
