It is most probably emotional and not organic (coming from your chest wall or internal thoracic organs).
If you cannot resolve your "socail" problems by yourself, ask the help of a friend.
If it persists, you may consult a psychologist or a psychiatrist.

the chest pain you are describing seems to be of gastrointestinal cause such as GERD,especially that you have suffer from prolonged stress >stress increases the acidity in the stomach>cause heartburn>cause reflux of stomch acid to the esophagus>GERD(the chronic regurgitation of acid from your stomach into your lower esophagus)>acidity in the esophagus injured the esophagus mucosa >chest pain is feeled
Chest pain that accompanies frequent heartburn can be treated with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as omeprazol medication, a type of drug that reduces acid production in your stomach. Your doctor also may recommend cutting out certain types of food, such as fried foods and citrus, which can trigger symptoms. A prolonged trial of PPI drugs can help relieve symptoms so that chest pain will no longer be a part of your life.
NOTE:If the heartburn seems worse or different than usual,especially if it occurs during physical activity or is accompanied by shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, nausea or pain radiating into your shoulder and arm,These signs and symptoms may indicate a heart attack.check your doctor directly
