I was feeling uneasy with chest pain yesterday so I took 2 antacids. It subsided and woke up feeling normal. But now around noon I feel weird again, I don't know how to describe but it feels weird!
My overthinking is not helping and I need to know if I'm fine.

If you can't describe it (you said that you don't know how to describe) , it is better to consult a General Physician for a physical examination. He may pick up some signs and also ask for a few investigations to decipher your problem.
1. Acid reflux / GERD (likely)
• Common cause of chest discomfort that mimics heart pain
• Often responds to antacids
• Can come back after meals, stress, lying down
May feel like:
• Weird heaviness or pressure in chest
• Slight shortness of breath
• Throat discomfort or bitter taste
2. Anxiety or Panic Sensation
• Anxiety can magnify or mimic physical symptoms
• Can cause a “weird” internal feeling, chest tightness, racing heart, unease
• Especially common if you’re focused on the symptoms
What would help:
1. Immediate Steps:
• Sit in a calm, upright position
• Take slow, deep breaths — in through nose, out through mouth
• Sip room temperature water slowly
• Avoid spicy or heavy meals right now
• If symptoms worsen or persist, go to the nearest clinic or ER and ask for:
• ECG
• Blood pressure and pulse check
2. When You’re Feeling Better:
• Keep a symptom diary (time, food, stress level)
• Avoid lying down flat after meals
• Avoid caffeine, late meals, stress where possible
Many people feel this mix of reflux + anxiety + fear of heart issues. It’s real and distressing. But it’s treatable, and often not dangerous if investigated and managed properly.

Make lifestyle changes to reduce use of antacids like keeping head end elevated, sleeping on left side, decreasing intake of tea or coffee, take healthy balanced diet and do proper exercise. Having a consult will be better to guide you
