View Full Version : Frequent yawning
Does anyone else go through little periods where they can't stop yawning? I was quite anxious earlier on, wasn't breathing properly and I've read that yawning can be due to lack of oxygen. I honestly just can't stop!!
When you're anxious your breathing in general gets disrupted. Yawning a lot and sighing a lot can be a sign that you're slightly hyperventilating which means that you're actually taking in TOO much air. Try breathing in through your nose only and not your mouth. It could also mean that you're tired of course..
Yes mary i have them all the time, even when i'm not tired.....find it quite funny now xx

Yep, classic for anxiety. I get this a lot.
Me too. Quite embarrassing at work cos my eyes water at the same time and it looks like I'm crying!
