Anxiety and breathing

[Jmerrick22]

Anyone know any breathing techniques or exercises for anxiety ? I get myself worked up and apparently maybe hyperventilate . I feel at times I need to force myself to breathe then I think I'm gonna stop breathing and fall over dead . I'm always afraid of passing out , I need to get back on meds , this is just nuts. The natural way I'm trying but I need some help . I hate meds :/ but I'm thinking I'm not gonna have much of a choice . Plus when I'm at work and stressed I get lightheaded sometimes and feel like I stop breathing . God this sucks

my psychiatrist teach me one breath tecnique: you need breath in by the nose slowly and fill your belly, than breath out for the mouth even slowly, do it several times, until you fell better

My breathing is off today and I'm shaky but I'm getting really angry
