Hi gordie1
I wonder whether you are having a panic attack, i suffer from them and it is really hard to catch your breath, they are extremely horrible but not life threatening..its to do with the flight or fight syndrome..

Hi all.I suffer from anxiety and panic it's horrible feeling.my head is clouded with negative thoughts.I start shaking and feel tired and sick.it goes like that nearly all through the day.I tried beta blocker and don't like it.are all these normal
Yes, I've had that in the past. The problem is, the more you focus on it the worse it seems and the harder it feels to breathe. Try to distract yourself. Make sure you breathe slowly and deeply.
Hi. I had days like this and also were i could notice every breath i took. Try some breathing exercises and take care you will be ok remember this is just anxiety taking over.
