shortness of breath

I suffer from shortness of breath when I get anxious. I take a small dose of librium and it helps. It doesn't always fix it completely, though. I also feel like I can't get to the top of my breath. Does anyone else feel like this?

hi i get shortness of breath.like im about to stop breathing and my hearing goes and so do all of my senses. its horrible.im not sure what to do half of the time.im sorry i have no remidies im still working on myself.its been 5 straight days of on and off anxiety attacks.

Hello, i also get shortness of breath, where it feels like i cant get enough breath in one go, and when i eventually do the sensation is similar to a yawn, like something relaxing. I had this very badly a few years ago and was always at the hospital or emergency doctor because i was so afraid there was something wrong with my breathing. Each time they told me there was nothing wrong, but i didnt believe them! Now i know its caused by anxiety, and i was in a vicious circle. I still get this, especially under stress and sometimes for no apparent reason when i just feel stressed about nothing. But i know what it is now. I wish i could make it go away, and i guess its a case of relaxing. But we all know its not that simple. You know i am glad there are other people out there who feel the same way as me. I hope you are ok, and that u can find a cure. If i find one i shall let u know.
