Hello there.
In my opinion your trouble with breathing is consequence of the panic attacks. My best friend has been suffering with this condition for quite some time now, and the first sign of panic attack is trouble with breathing. When she is drinking her medications most of the time she manages to avoids attacks, as well as the breathing troubles. But of course she doesn’t want to do this or the rest of her life so she is trying to stop taking medications. As soon as some stressful situation appears she starts to have breathing troubles.
Visit your doctor and ask for counseling therapy. I hope this will help you and that you will resolve your problems. Good luck.
