Hello! Thank you so much for sharing your story… I’ve been commented on something like this before but after reading a lot of comments I wanted to share my opinion.

I’ve been experiencing this air hunger for almost 10 years now and my heart is healthy, my lungs are super healthy, I don’t have anything relating to GERD. I’ve spent so much money trying to get to the bottom of this and nothing seems to work.

I’ve notice that I can forget about my air hunger when I’m distracted and that why all of my doctors tell me it’s has to be anxiety. I feel anxious but nothing extreme so I can’t accept this answer anymore.

A few months ago a friend of mine told my he has the same type of dyspnea and that his psychologist told him it could be a type of OCD or Tourette’s and that kinda made sense to me. I’ve notice that every time I can get through the need to take a deep breath it gets better… if I deny my body that satisfying breath, eventually the urge goes away, it takes A LOT to ignore the urge but the few times I’ve been able to do it, it helps a lot. As you mention Gabriel I also started doing Buteyko exercises and they seem to be helping.

Thank you for reading, greeting from Guadalajara, Mexico
