heart burn and indigestion much the same thing this is caused by a gastric problem.
angina is a tightening of the arteries that supply blood to the heart
heart attack full or partial stoppage of the heart
heartbroken is sadness

I will ignore heart burn and indigestion, due to lack of enough interesting knowledge.
Medical people cannot easily rule out heart problems as, say indigestion.
Angina is a supposedly safe thing, but suggests heart disease.
Heart attack is life-threatening. Part of the heart is not getting enough oxygen to function, probably due to insufficient blood flow to that part, e.g. due to a blood clot.
Excessive stress is not good for the body and mind.

Chest pain is any kind of pain you can feel in your chest, may it be stabbing, dull, oppressive, burning sensation…any of those. You classify the different types of chest pain into cardiac (heart-related) or atypical (chest pain not caused by cardiac problems).
Heartburn is caused by acid reflux, and is usually described by patients as a burning sensation in the sternal area (middle of the chest). They say they feel something hot going up to their throats, and some even describe a metallic sour taste in their mouths. Indigestion is also related to gastric problems and one of the symptoms can be heartburn.
Angina is an oppressive type of pain in the chest, it’s what you would feel if someone was standing on your chest and adding pressure where they are standing at, it makes you feel short of breath and sweaty. This one is cardiac (heart) related. It is caused by the lack of oxygen reaching areas of the cardiac tissue (there are a few reasons why this could happen) and can lead to a heart attack (or the correct name-myocardial infarct).
Heartbroken, well I guess we all have been there at least once in our lives, haven’t we?

Heart Burn is a burning sensation on your chest due to acid reflux (stomach content going up to your esophagus)
Indigestion is anything that affects digestion, usually referring to the stomach
Angina means pain, when it is called "chest angina" it’s referring to the clogging of arteries that supply blood to the cardiac muscle causing pain
Heart attack, or more precisely Myocardial Infartcion, is the irreversible damage of the cardiac muscle caused by lack of nutrition (meaning blood)… an untreated angina may lead to it over time
Chest pain is any kind of ache you feel on your torax, it includes all the others already mentioned
