ok
im a mess
we cant just stop breathing so why do i have a feeling of something caught in my throat and keep holding my breath n shaking

That is called globus and is common with anxiety.

Try and slow your breathing down - use a paper bag and that will help

Hi
I dont know if you mean this.. but when im anxious before a panic attack and i try and take a deep breath in and breathe out my breathing sound is like shaky and sounds really like deep. Im sure it will be to do with anxiety because it does affect your breathing but not in a way where something bad is going to happen, just our muscles tighten up and it causes pain and feels like we struggling to get air, but once we get our second breathe type thing we naturally start to calm.
They say breathing in to a paper bag is meant to help get your breathing back under control.
