How To Get Rid Of Anxiety Attack?
I'm hoping you're a real doctor but I've been having anxiety attacks lately and is it normal for my left arm to get this weird feeling? Like its not numb or anything but feels weak and a couple of my fingers feel numb, and sometimes the feeling goes to the left side of my face
