Today I was lying down drinking some coffee when I felt I couldnt catch my breath - I was extremely tired att he time, do you think this had something to do with it? And if it happens again, should I do the paper bag breathing? Thanks

this happened quite a lot to me at school last term after i passed out. the doctors put this down to stress, though i'm on holiday it's only improved slightly. Is there any possibility that you could be stressed or run down mentally?

Struggling to cope, I turned to the internet for my help. It feels like no-one understands me.

I struggle from this a lot and think the "Felt" is important, Im always saying I feel funny or feel I cant breathe, this shows that it is an emotion causing this feeling / symptom not a physical issue, It is sooo hard I know (I am going through hell with just the same) but it will pass for you I promise and you will realise if to be anxiety

Take Care

My breathing can sometimes go to pot too - I wouldn't bother with the paper bag idea as I think that seems to be a bit of no no these days especially for asthma sufferers.

I would try and breath quite shallowly but feeling your tummy swell slightly and do it fairly slowly.

"Supposing it didn't," said Pooh after careful thought.
