Suggest Remedy For Chest Pain, Abdominal Discomfort And Constipation Caused By Anxiety

My 19year old son is having stomach pain with constipation...which I gave him some saline laxative...he finally went. For the past two weeks he has been experiencing some chest discomfort, shaking, shallow breathing, stomach pain, indigestion, cold hands, tingling in one or both arms, back muscle pain and he keeps saying his chest feels full and throat feels tight. Took him to a doctor and they said it was anxiety and gave him a med called HYDROXYZINE HCL 50mg and cries.....we have no money
