Acute Hyperventilation? Whats gonna be my future? Need answers y'all my doctors can't figure out what's wrong with and it's making me crazy.

I'm trying so hard to stay calm as I'm writing this right now. (English is my 2 language I speak German) so don't make fun of my grammar! try to understand what I'm saying. So, I've had hyperventilation problems since I was 8 probably because I went through hard time as a kid but then it disappeared for 8 years. I got it again when I was going through a lot then it disappeared and I was just having anxiety shortness of breath like few times a day now things has changed and got really bad last few months it stopped me from going outside because I literally panic as soon as I go outside and I'm constantly feeling suffocated it's really scary like every second of the day, I'm dizzy and feeling weak and having legs cramps and tingling and pins in arm and numbness around my face. Sometimes I just feel like I can't take a deep breath at all it got so bad that I felt like I only took one deep breath in 45mins. breathing exercises do help a lot, but the suffocation feelings and the urge to take a deep breath return in Just few seconds later or minutes. This is disturbing my sleep since I wake up hyperventilating it used to happen like I'd wake up hyperventilating once a week then it started happening like 3 times a week to 2 times a day or 3 times. I can't run, i don't exercise because I'm in fear of what the consequences might be, if i get a full blown panic attack with acute hyperventilation. I don't know how to live my life anymore. I just want the old me back that used to run all the time. I was the fastest, I was one of the best people in soccer. now, I'm all the time thinking about my breathing, it's like an obsession. I can't stop thinking about it for a second. I don't know how I'm gonna get through this. my body is weak, my brain is tired and in a confusion state all the time. I don't wanna go to hospital ANYMORE. I'm always there. Heck, I don't even know how many times I went to hospital this month. my breathing is good my Oxygen LEVEL is LITERALLY 99% which is RIDICULOUS. I BEGGED my doctor to tell me I had COPD or LUNG CANCER or HEART FAILURE so I could SHUT UP and say hey, AT LEAST SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH ME. but he said "it's all in your HEAD don't BE STRESSED" another doctor the told me I had bronchitis and gave me antibiotics and other meds along with an inhaler NONE OF THAT WORKED AT ALL taking the inhaler does nothing AT ALL. I googled hyperventilation it turns out that when you hyperventilatie it causes narrowing in the airways causing more shortness of breath and wheezing rip. Last doctor told me he doesn't know how the F*CK I was told I had bronchitis because he said nothing is wrong with me at all and told me not to take any X ray test because everything was literally fine .. they don't even want me they're tired of my sh*t they don't wanna see me lol even the nurses laugh when they see me, they're probably like. "Oh, look, it's the anxiety boy again!!" i know there's a lot of people that feel breathless because of anxiety all the time, but mine is RIDICULOUS makes me stand up every few minutes to take a deep breath or sit up in bed to try to catch my breath chest tightness, dizziness, body weakness, fatigue, leg cramps and hands tingling and confusion and insomnia? Once I even woke up not being able to stand up or walk because the day before that I was really dealing with bad anxiety then the next day I was ok. WHY? what did I even do to deserve this? It's making me feel schizophrenic because I refuse to believe "it's all in my head" I JUST CAN'T. what's the point of having a brain then, if I can't even control it. I'm hoping there's a surgery that can formart my brain. I'm all ready for that. my brain needs hard reset so it could function properly... I still sit with the family and sometimes I go outside buy food for myself, but the suffocation feelings are there. I'd totally understand if no one knows what's wrong with me because I don't either. just turned 18 and I'm dealing with a lot of mental problems. Lmao. Any support would be appreciated.😑 :/

Hi

I believe anxiety can evolve into psychosis.

Well I know it can because it’s happened to me once.

You mentioned your breathing as an obsession this could be a link(ocd).

Your having repetitive thoughts,!

The other symptoms you are having also indicate some type of anxiety disorder plus some other more complexed disorders.

Seek an appointment with a Psychiatrists.

You will fixed up within weeks.

Keep safe.

Thank you so much for your response Tony and you're right I give up time to see a psychiatrist coz I won't get any better without depending on anti anxiety drugs. I'll keep everyone updated thanks 💖

Mate if you break your arm you see an orthopedist and you’ll get your arm fixed and plastered.

If your suffering from a mental health condition you see a neuro/!psych.

They will give you therapy and meds to fix you up again.

Keep strong!
