In end of june 2015 I had stomach problems, I went to the doctor and found hookworms on me.I took meds and got better, but I noticed my heart rate was increasing by the day.At that moment I had broken up with my girlfriend and got so emotional and stressed. Then the I developed hard pounds of my heart and became afraid. I then got my first panic attack in July.I was rushed to emergency that day.After many tests I all over the months nothing was found to be the problem. I was then diagnosed with Anxiety disorder. After a month i developed shortnesd of breathe.I used Alprazolam 0.25mg,it really help to come down but its very addictive.I was then referred to a psychiatrist. I have been trying yoga,deep breathing but I still can't get my constant shortness of breathe away.I will continue to try the techniques you mentioned above. I hope I will get better soon.my email is ***@****, just in case you have the best way to end it,tell me how.
I really hope this information helps you : One of the scariest parts of my apparent anxiety was the shortness of breath episodes that I was experiencing for days on end. I actually googled about it and read instructions that 100 percent have helped me immediately after following them and now it is a thing of the past! So basically what you want to do is TAKE A DEEP BREATH IN THROUGH YOUR NOSE AND WHEN YOU BREATHE OUT PUSH YOUR LIPS TOGETHER LIKE YOU'RE BLOWING SOMEONE A KISS. "PURSED LIPS". Blow out all the air in your lungs while doing this. Repeat this 3-4 times in a row. Make sure you go slowly and blow it all out. You may feel like you need to take a huge breath in, just relax and continue. This 100 percent works and its not mental . Apparently when we hyperventilate we leave extra air in our lungs from not breathing correctly and it causes us to feel like we arent getting enough air. So breathing out through the pursed lips makes sure to push all the extra air out. I promise you this will work. It drove me crazy until I read about it and applied it and now Im happy to say I dont experience this anymore! Good luck!
can u please send me a link I cannot see your email.

God bless you man. I tried everything - antidepressants, herbs, anti
anxiety meds, therapy(kind of working) and non of it works.One year i was dealing with the shortness of breath.
After doing the things you wrote on the first day i was feeling 80 percent better, on the second 90 percent.
I dont know how to thank you. To all of you- STOP SUFFERING, do
the things written in the post above and you will get better immediately.
You just have to normalize your breathing. The moment you try to do so, you
will feel what was the natural way of breathing before the shortness of breath. Slowly breath through your
nose with your diaphragm. If you are not sure wheather you are breathing with your diaphragm or with your
lungs, just place your arm on your diaphragm and when you inhale your arm will go up. SLOWLY INHALE AND EXHALE THROUGH YOUR NOSE AND DONT OVERBREATHE.
