Hello

It really sounds like anxiety , even though you feel you cannot breath you can as you are still here and asking for help , I used to feel this way often and not till I stopped fearing the sensation did it start to decrease and now only happens very rare if I am really stressed or anxious

Have you Goggled some breathing exercises for anxiety , you should have a look a lot of helpful ones you can find that will help you to start controlling this feeling or even breathing in and out of a paper bag when you get this feeling can help to

Maybe you could see your Doctor ? Let them check you over physically and then when you get the all clear you will have peace of mind that this is anxiety causing this which will not harm you even though really feels unpleasant

Take Care x

hi Wat, ... but are you breathing? while thinking you can't. it could be a 'panic' attack, do you think, if so, breathing slowly into and out of a paper bag cupped around your lips could help. it will get more oxygen into your bloodstream, up to the brain and the anxiety should subside. I am only saying what I've seen done on TV here. I don't know if they have paper bags in the Phillipines. do you know what makes you 'think' you can't breathe.?
