Catching my breathe

[emtw12]

Every now n then il get this feeling where I need to catch my breathe really quickly it's only happened a few times but why does it happen is it like your forgetting to breathe cos it doesn't feel like the usual need to deep breathe / yawn to be able to breathe properly it's just a quick loud sigh which happens randomly lol

Anxiety, tension. I think the only time I breath normal is when I'm asleep. Yawning is a sign of hyperventilation.

I have to catch my breath like that frequently but when I am beginning to fall asleep or it wakes me up. Maybe I breathe to shallow & then gulp, but it feels so refreshing. I worry about not waking up.
