Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the breathing difficulty and body tremors indicate underlying psychological distress and giving secondary manifestations. The condition can be manifestation of anxiety, co-morbid depression or stress hormone release. Treatment is multi factorial approach:
- Consultation with a psychologist is must
- Prescription of anti depressant as fluoxetine, anti anxiety as lorazepam or temazepam, beta blocker as propranolol, supportive care
- Counselling with clinical psychiatrist
- Meditations and YOGA
- Joining peer groups

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
