Is it anxiety?

Hello everybody my name is Bryan and im a 28yr old male. At times I feel like if im not breathing correctly that my heart isnt beating fast enough and then if I catch it and breath faster then my heart seems to beat faster. Its weird, its like I can feel my heart just slowing down. Can it be anxiety and has anyone ever had this happen?   Thanks, Bryan

Sounds like very classic anxiety symptoms to me, but since they seem to have come on rather suddenly, I would advise you to have a thorough check up and a good long chat with your doctor. Rule out any physical reason for these sensations and then if all the tests are clear, you can begin to work on the anxiety issues. If you both feel it's warranted, he should be able to refer you to a good therapist.
Please keep us posted, OK?
And know that we're always here.
