frequent need to 'deep breathe'

[kteen16]

does this have to do with anxiety?
ive had it for like the past two or three days.
i've had it before but not this long.
is it normal?
thanks

If your taking deep breaths in fear of not getting enough air i would say its anxiety. Stress can make you want to take deep breaths to though. I catch myself doing it whenever im having a frustrating day. Do you just take a deep breath every once in a while or are you actualy stopping to focus on breathing?

pretty much both.

Hi, I had this once when I got a virus and I needed to get some asthma-type meds to help.  You should check with your doctor.  Do you have a cold or anything?  If not, I would say it's your nerves.
