Breathing Difficulty and Anxiety Attacks
I've been having difficulty breathing since 1 week now and it's really bad. I used to have trouble breathing since I was 12 (I'm 16 now) I think it's because of psychological reasons as my board exams are going on and I'm very stressed and anxious. Furthermore this makes studying really hard. I also have trouble sleeping because of this I have to get up and go to the balcony often as I feel suffocated. Should I go to a therapist or a pulmonologist what should i do if my breathing gets worse? Should I go to a therapist or a pulmonologist? What are your views
