Getting Short Of Breath While Your Talking

[Tonyhope]

Hello everyone I have a question. Has anyone experience shortness of breath while speaking? Every time I talk it seems like I lose my breath.

Hi Tonyhope, I find if I'm not relaxed when I'm talking, I will experience the same

thing because I end up holding my breath. It's good to take pauses between

sentences and not feel that you have to get everything in all at once.

By allowing the other person to speak while you listen, it gives you time to

breathe and calm your nervous system. xx

No its nothing like that at all with me. When I talk I seem to lose my breath. I can answer my phone an say two words an get short of breath

Yes it’s common with anxiety. The problem is your breathing to fast ( hyperventilating) and not realizing it. So when you start talking your having a shortness of breath.
