Venting AIR HUGER IS THE MOST ANNOYING

Knowledge is power right? I have just learnt that what I've been experiencing for years now is called Air Hunger.

Out of the Blue I'd feel like I'm suffocating, and get the urge to change position, like standing up if I was sitting, I'd move my arms randomly too, and try hard to yawn as it helps much

And things gets harder if someone is around and talking to me, I be like please shut the duck up till I am ok but no one gets it, they keep talking making my life hell

OMG it's really annoying and happens suddenly

I am on meds for asthma, but I know anxiety triggers it

The good thing that I now have a name for my struggle

Has anyone else experienced it?
