worry about breath
by starshadow, Jun 14, 2007 12:00AM
last month i got one panic attack.
after that, I worried my breathing all the time. i am thinking about my breathing whole day even at work. I always feel i can't have enough breath. I mean don't have enough air. I have to take the medicine to relax myself and not focus on this thought. I am on avitan now, i only take 0.5mg once a day. but will i have dependency on this medicine if i keep on doing it?
Is there anything else i can do to take away my thoughts from thinking about breathing?
thanks in advance

the hard thing is take my mind away from it. I keep on thinking about it until i had the pill.
I know i don't have problem with breathing but .. i don't know how to control my thought.
i read some post and try to breath right way. slow and short breath, but what is that mean breath from abdomin? i can never do it. when i breath my chest move up and down. I feel so tired after breath like that.
i know it is nothing wrong with my lung, but i just can't take my mind of from my breathing. anyway, this drive me crazy. it is become so hard to breath normally.
