Don't know what's happening to me

...See more Whenever I watch sad scenes, my heart starts to burn and runs fast, it feels that my heart becomes full of anxiety and pain/fear. It is happening to me from the 1st of May 2024 (first time when I feel it). It isn't triggered only by watching sad scenes , I have felt it on many occasions since 1st May 2025, when I started to feel it for the very first time and since then I have experienced many times it and out of which 8 to 9 times it was very difficult for me to accommodate myself as it was very painful. I understand in order to correct these symptoms, I have to limit movies and tv shows/anime but whenever I like a movie/tv show, I can't stop myself from watching it and even if I try to stop myself, these symptoms also start again even though I haven't started to watch them. As I have mentioned above that only sad movies/tv shows aren't entirely the causes of these symptoms, I have experienced it on several occasions which isn't related to these sad movies and tv shows as i don't watch much sad shows/movies because they aren’t enough good sad movies/tv shows. In these process, my studies are very disturbed and I have my exams upcoming on 30 April 2025 but due to these symptoms which I have been feeling since last year, i could not study very much and it also trigger these symptoms because i haven't prepare fully to pass some subjects like math and I have no time left to prepare for it. The people around me don't understand these problems as they aren’t well studied as you know how much Pakistanis usually know about these things. I see no way to remove these symptoms from life and improve my studies to become a good person, which I have thought I will become in my life. As Chat-gpt or some YouTubers are consistently talking about trusted professionals, there aren't much good trusted professionals in Pakistan and if they are, they costs higher fees which is impossible for me to pay as I am only student and for online trusted professionals, they also cost higher fees than which are available in Pakistan. Conclusion is that there is not much help available as no one from my family doesn't understand these problems, and I have no friends or relatives to whom I can talk about these issues and I haven't money for trusted professionals like therapists, psychologists, etc. But I am still fighting and figuring these things out, and I am trying to give my best. In the end, there's nothing but there's a famous saying : I shoul d have done better.
