Waves come over me like I can't breathe

[lelespears]

I get waves out the blue of what feels like my body isn't goin to breathe its really weird. It sort of goes through my body. Then obviously I start to panic!

Is this anxiety. But even when I don't feel stressed at the time.

Yes it is. The worst one I ever had was when my head felt perfectly calm. But my body was doing all the worrying! Just keep thinking, "It will pass! It will pass!"

Yes it most definitely is anxiety and as Speranza says "I will pass" and if your thoughts start racing remember "It is just a thought" and "thoughts" trigger physiological responses in fractions of seconds.....and then the cycle starts................
