Hey, I also have this 24/7 feeling that I need to take a deep chest breath, but for me it’s been going on close to 8 years. And just like you, I contacted Simon, the man who wrote the article on the Alexander technique, and I am considering going to North Carolina to see his wife! This is horrible what we have to go through. I’m not ruling out physical causes yet, but I have this deep feeling that my body just forgot how to breathe properly because of really bad anxiety, and it’s just stuck like this - a never ending cycle impossible to get out of. I hope you see this message and let me know if you ever saw someone about the Alexander technique and if it helped you. It just seems so impossible to keep myself from taking that unnatural deep breath, it’s so deeply ingrained in me. Please get back to me thank you

hello guys, I hope everyone is fine. I'm here just to share with you the fact that I've been facing this problem since three days. At parts of the day I've figured out that I'm hyperventilating though I'm still 21 with no chronic health problems. I visited a physician and he prescribed 5mg bisoprolol daily. What i want to share is that I feel that i always need thay deep breath to fulfill my lungs. Although I still can live with it, but it's really annoying. I also forget all about this problem whenever I'm really busy. Yet most of the time I always feel that I do need a yawn or deep breath. I wonder if you've find any cure guys.
