Bad anxiety I quite smoking almost 2 years ago and y breathing is strained at times. Sometimes it’s me that’s making my breathing more difficult I’ll be fine and not thinking about it then all of the sudden I’ll start heavy breathing and all these thoughts come in my mind and I’m now full fledge gasping for air. I know u need help I just maybe can can feed back to try to find a way to stop thinking snd panicking

Hi, Is the heavy breathing due to anxiety or from medical conditions?

A few years ago I experienced the worst panic attacks and felt as though I was gasping for air

At first I would go from fine to all of a sudden can’t breath. I didn’t notice any difference in thoughts or emotions. But with a lot of work with my therapist I was able to notice what caused it.
