I know that shortness of breath is a normal symptom of anxiety, but what about long term? (Not as in months, more like all day?) Over the past 2-3 days I've been feeling a bit short of breath, like I can breathe and I have no pain or anything or coughing, I just don't feel like I can fully like fill my lungs adequately, if you understand what I'm saying? A bit like slow hyperventilation (which is a juxtaposition in itself considering that hyperventilation is rapid breathing XD)
Please help!
I'm a 14 year old girl with a heart condition which I've had since birth. It's a serious heart condition but I'm no longer on medication so it's not as serious as it is for some people, and I'm quite sure it's not to do with my heart condition (but my parents are refusing to let me get checked out by a doctor- especially considering they know about my health anxiety and generally think I'm overexaggerating.
Thanks guys!
