bin_tenn 1252 Posted May 12, 2018 Yes. The sensation of shortness of breath can be very scary, even when it's just anxiety. I get this any time I'm particularly anxious, whether it's health anxiety or general anxiety. It feels terrible, I know, but I think you'll be fine. Take some slow, deep breaths. In through the nose, out through the mouth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
