Breathing problems

[Ciaran]

Ever since my first panic attack i've been experiencing really bad breathing problems, like im constantly out of breath. Is this just because of my anxiety or should I go and get this checked out? Bearing in mind i was fine before i developed anxiety issues.

Thanks :)

Hi Ciaran,
Are you actually short of breath or do you feel like you can't get enough air in when you're breathing?
I get this with anxiety though..it's something to do with the muscles in your chest contracting. It won't hurt you though! Have a read through the symptoms on the left - breathing is on there!
