How Can Severe Anxiety And Shortness Of Breath Be Treated?
Hello, I think I suffer bad anxiety. I had a parent pass away in November 2017, I m 25. After a couple months I find myself very concerned about my health. My breathing and heart to be exact. I have shortness of breath, no chest pains, no feel of my heart wanting to beat out of my chest or anything like that. And at night I can generally relax (after using some Vicks vapor rub and fall asleep) My doctor examined me and said he thinks it s just anxiety and did a x-ray of my chest and found nothing wrong but I m just looking for another person s opinion on the situation. I can have normal conversations without feeling the need to stop, I can exercise doing rigorous cardio activity, so I m thinking cause of these factors it should dismiss something being legitimately wrong.

There may be chances you think more about something, that's may brings lithargy in your body and you may also under psychosomatically. I think you need to increase you mental strength. No need to medicine
