    You actually posted about the same thing over the Summer and other times so it's definitely happened before.

    "Yesterday was finding it hard to catch my breath and apart from this got a pain in my chest."

    It was attributed to anxiety. While I'm sure others have experienced similar symptoms, I don't see how that will help other than affirming it's anxiety. Just like a few others are doing, seeking help from professionals, whether it's therapy, CBT, meds or a combination thereof is the way to beat the beast.

    Good Luck!
