She told me last night that while she was shouting at me she went all hot, sick, dizzy and tight chested and felt like she was ready to pass out.
Even now she says her heart feels like someone has grabbed it and now twisting round.
She knows im worried about her and am helping her but she says she doesnt know how to control it - she says it feels like she goes from 0-60 in half a second.
She's not aggressive physically but shouts and screams too much too soon.
What help other than talking to her available?

Shes 22.
Has college work that needs to get done but thats not the main thing and is frustrated with our daughter because she never listens to us anymore - she knows shes two and a half but she still finds it infuriating when she tells her not to do something and gets ignored and our little girl will do it anyway.
She has no idea what she wants to do after her course and is worried about choosing the right path way if you like.
My wife has never had a proper way of releasing and letting go of her stress and anger so it lingers on and festers away.

Her intense reaction to me is nothing to do with our relationship - she thinks i am the better parent and probably resents the fact as she believes it whole heartedly.

Also she gets angry because she doesn't have control over things and cant let go of the fact you cant control everything.

I used to have anxiety attacks that sound a lot like what happened to you wife. I would also just lose control and scream at my husband for the littlest things. This went on for years and my husband finally told me to get help or we were not going to make it. I went to my family DR and was given meds for anxiety/depression. Over the last year my life has improved so much. I feel like a different person and others can see the changes too. Your wife really needs to see a DR. You should go with her to let the DR know how this has been effecting your family life as well. Try to be supportive.

her symptoms sound like classic stress with tight chest etc but I think she should go to her GP for a blood pressure check.
It sounds like she needs to sort out some kind of release for this anger that she has. I would recommend that she speaks to her GP about this. She should consider doing an impact sport or running to release some of the pent up energy she has. At 22 she's a bit young to be having cardiac problems.
Urge her to see her GP.

Is it anxiety? What is bugging her? Is it a physical problem like high blood pressure? You should get her to a doctor for a proper diagnosis. Act patient, even if she's annoying you. Hold her, hug her and let her know that it's going to be okay (even if you don't *really* believe it). Chamomille tea and other herbal teas and a hot bath might help relax your wife.

It sounds like she's having panic attacks, which are very scary if you've never had one before. It feels like you're having a heart attack. She should see a doctor and see what her options are. Also- if she's this upset at you all the time, try some counseling. It sounds like there may be a deeper issue here. Good luck!

It sounds like she mayt be having a gall bladder attack like gall stones or she is having a panic attack. All in all I would get to emergency ASAP. Trust me I have seen my wife go through this and it ended up she needed to have her gall bladder removed because it was malfunctioning. She could also be going through some anxiety issues. But really I would get her checked out NOW!

God Bless and Good Luck.

Really though maybe consider why she is yelling at you and do something to reduce her yelling at you because you may be the reason behind this problem could be stress related!

A lot of women do actually get overstressed in career training or moves but is gets hot,sick and dizzy I suggest she sees a doctor a.s.a.p. I myself had similar symptoms, although I am much older than you wife, and ignored it. Now I am on medication for the rest of my life. Get a move on.

Sounds like she needs to take a yoga class a couple of times a week and speak with a therapist. Good luck.

She needs to get checked out by the doctor. Could be a variety of things, but you haven't provided enough info for me to take a stab at it.

Hope everything is okay.

get a book on stress management and start using some of the techniques - stress can kill you

My wife was very uptight and you never guess but the doctors told her to drink some alcohol every night lol

daughter doesnt listen to you anymore..and she is just over 2 yrs old...are you kidding me?? your wife needs to get out now cos if she dont like a 2yr old...she wont like a teenager!! - she is a parent and she is either there for the duration - or not...and maybe you should get her away from the child...it will do the little one no good being around a nutter..shouting and screaming is disgusting around a child!!
