thats exactly what it feels like, like maybe i got bronchitis. I went to get my yearly last week and he said my heart and lungs sound normal. I went on paxil and am feeling better. I went off the celexa i took for 3 wks as i was sure that was causing it but i dont think it was now. I also do box breathing, that helps.
I smoke, so quitting is my next step...........its going to be a major challenge for me.
Thanks for your reply and good luck with the effexor!
i know my cuz used to get flushed face from anxiety. I was having what i thought was hot flashes for a few months before the anxiety really hit me hard. I was waking up at night and off and on all day I would feel like i was burning up. after the anxiety eased up, so did the heat sensations. I may not be going through menopause after all. anxiety is the DEBIL!
good luck to u, keep us updated. box breathing takes some practice but it helps with heart racing, palps and hyperventilating that causes the shortness of breath but meds help me the most.
when i am tired or fatigued my anxiety goes down unless i am having panic attacks for several days, then nothing stops it except meds. I noticed sugary or caffienated foods cause my anxiety to rise.
I am on paxil now and it has helped my anxiety quite a bit. hardly use the xannax now.
