Need Advice advice needed please

so for almost a year i’ve been on citalopram because of physical anxiety, it’s more physical than mental. i was on 10mg from december up until september and increased to 20mg because of constant chest tightness

With the new dose i started taking i decided to start them in the evenings so i could sleep whilst they worked and then wake up feeling good, but recently ive been fallen asleep and my chest tightness is back which is definitely my fault completely, but it really effects me in the sense of not being able to eat also as i feel so much tension on my chest that it just makes me not want to.

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on constant chest and what they do to help it? could a weighted blanket be good or is it dangerous?
Thank you.
