anyone else ever feel awful 24/7 constant breathing problems, feeling like your not getting enough air or u just cant breathe well, ache everywhere, pains in arms/chest sometimes. feeling tired alot, feeling like u could just collapse sometimes, and now to top it off my eyes are always blood shot. ive been to the doctors about my heart and have had tests, they always say probs anxiety. but how can anyone live like this? ive got another appointment on the 13th

Right now , I can't catch my breath , does it feel like shooting pains in your body all over ? And the more u think about the pain the more it happens

When I'm worrying or thinking about something to much I heavy breath and I can't catch my breath it feels like I'm suffocating , also my heart rate is way to high Iv been checked about it twice I was in hospital for a week because they couldn't lower it and not long ago I collapsed, when the paramedics came they checked my heart rate whilst I was sat down it will high and when I stood up it was even higher , you mentioned something about your heart maybe it's the same problem

I use to have breathing problems. My Mom thought it was asthma. But it wasn't, it was anxiety. I had a lot going on in my life so that's probably why. Is there anything that bothering you? Try deep breathing exercises, that helped me a lot, I always deep breath. Try going to a therapist too, it helps just to talk about things. The chest pains, I've never had that before but I know it is common for other people. The body is a very strange thing and can do weird things to you. But, that why we have our brains. If there is nothing wrong with you medically then it's all coming from your head and you can stop it. Takes time but definitely will help. You're ok, don't worry, do something that will distract you! We all can relate to you and other people in different ways so you're not alone. Everything will be OK.

I get the breathing difficulty, but it is one symptom that does not scare me because I know it is "just anxiety". Some other symptoms, like my heart skipping or racing, now that scares me because I can't always convince myself it is "just anxiety". Your other symptoms along with the breathing issues are very indicative of anxiety, so you need to work on the anxiety and not worry about your breathing.
