Sore Chest Pain, worked out too much and likely stressed ...

Guess I've worked out too much last week because last Tuesday morning I exercised too much. All is well throughout the day until bed time, my chest started acting weird. How weird? Like your chest is twitching and tickling, having a mind of its own if you put it that way lol. Stayed up almost all night trying to deal with it until around 4 in the morning. Woke up at 9, slept just a little but felt nothing on my chest anymore so I quickly moved on. Grabbed a coffee and a sandwich because it was already 11 when I got out of the shower, then decided to head out to Walmart. That feeling came back but this time it got crazier to the point that it was too unsafe for me to drive so I drove back home and decided to walk around for a bit. Goddamn I walked almost the entire day until around 6 PM..... The feeling fianlly went away but later on it came back but not too bad anymore. Fearing that I might no be able to sleep again I bought some sleeping tea to help me get some sleep. Sort of helped... Tried to sleep around 10, fell asleep at 12 then woke up at 6. Tried sleeping again then back up at 8 when I started getting ready for work. Working with this funny ticklish feeling made me very uncomfortable that I had to talk to my boss of what is going on. He did say I may have stretched my muscles too much that it's trying to heal, but noticed I'm stressing out. He recommended me to go see a doctor just to be sure. So after work I went to the doctor to get myself checked. My blood pressure is fine, hasn't been going out of whack like too high or low but I explained everything to her and she said the same thing. Too much workout and my stretching my arms and chest made the muscles stretched and trying to adjust. My body is not used to this hard workout I've been doing so she said I should take it easy and let it heal. For how long I have no idea...I forgot to ask... But she prescribed me with ibuprofen 600mg and I should get it at a pharmacy the next morning. Got the meds, been taking it as followed, it sort of helped but the funny feeling kinda hanging around. And for some reason I'm getting some depressive moods that comes and goes, haven't eaten anything back then but then I'm starting to eat again which is good. But for some reason whenever we get a rush at work and I help, I get the urge of wanting to cry...twice. First time I sort of cried and had to go back of the kitchen to chill, next time I had trouble holding it that when I got home I immediately let it all out and cried for a couple of minutes then I calmed down. I don't know what happened or why that happened, I'm thinking it's either stress, anxiety or depression. I've been getting stressed and angry at work recently because some coworkers leaving without restocking some stuffs to leave me more work the next day. I guess all that stress and anger built up inside me that I couldn't hold it any longer.. Or this sore chest muscles is driving me crazy, or maybe it's both... I don't know but we'll see what happens when I go to work soon. If I cry again at work then that means I'm really, really stressed or something. Right now I'm feeling okay, some moments I laugh at stuffs and sometimes I feel sad. I don't know. What a way to start 2023...
