I have recently started having anxiety attacks. They are occuring every couple of days. I have been taking Prozac for about 6 months, for depression. Could being on it long term be causing my anxiety?

I’m personally a bit scared as of right now because I can’t figure out the difference between heart attack warning symptoms and panic attack symptoms. You see, I’ve been having a quick, sharp pain in my chest ever since I woke up. I woke up at 9:02 am central time. It goes away but comes back every hour or so. Now I’ve been trying to calm myself down and say it’s nothing but for a couple of days now I’ve been dizzy, my left arm has been having muscle spasms, my face has been feeling like it’s swollen, more or less meaning there’s a lot of discomfort, and now I’m having a pain in my left shoulder/ upper arm. Please, can someone possibly tell me what’s going on? I’m only 18, I shouldn’t be feeling like this, should I?

Hey everyone,
So, I’ve been having what I think may be panic attacks recently. I’ve had them in the past, but these symptoms I’ve been having lately, are very different. For a while, I was having chest pains and At night, sometimes I get these attacks and I have difficulty breathing and this sort of wave of panic comes over me. At first, I thought I was having a heart attack, so I freaked out and the next day went to the hospital, but after they did an ECG, tested my oxygen intake and did a chest x-ray, they said everything looked not just fine, but above average. Lately, though, I’ve been feeling really spaced out, faint and a little dizzy and this symptom isn’t going away. Its been around for a couple of days now and there isn’t much that makes this sensation stop. I feel disconnected, almost dream-like to what’s around me, like I’ve just woken up. Is this a symptom of panic attacks and is it normal for this disconnectedness to go on for a few days?
Anyone who’s experienced this or has some clues, your help is much appreciated.
Oh, also, I have been to the Hospital about 4 times regarding this because nothing’s changed and I keep worrying that its something serious, but every time I go, different doctors do the same tests (ECG, oxygen intake) but all say basically the same thing: my heart’s fine, my lungs are fine, and they say its in my head, but these physical symptoms don’t go away…
