Breathe deeper and don't shallow breathe, they can be caused by anxiety for sure. Get your electrolytes checked to be sure.

Relax, they're normal. Get it checked with your doc though. Although, most of the time, it's just anxiety or stress causing it. Just try to not care about them. Being scared is not going to make them go away. Being scared is not gonna stop a heart attack. The danger is there, but fear is just a feeling.
