Well, I have been struggling with my mental health lately but didn't really get any physical symptoms before. I'd just kinda freak out a bit in my head but otherwise was fine.

This year has been worse. Idk if it's the pandemic but it seems like some physical symptoms have started manifesting. I'm not sure if it's anxiety. Keep thinking it's Covid but I'm vaccinated and really don't have any other symptoms. It's just this feeling like even though I can breathe fine, it still feels like my body isn't absorbing enough oxygen. It feels like my breath gets stuck in my chest too sometimes, like it's not expanding properly to my lungs.

I had a medical checkup last week and I should have brought it up with my doctor. But it's been occurring so on and off over the course of this year that I didn't think about it. When it does hit though, it's like it's the only thing I can focus on and often I feel on the verge of hyperventilation.

Is it normal to ONLY have this one symptom associated to anxiety? I thought maybe I'd show other symptoms but it is really just this. I am going to therapy too but I'm not at the point where I understand fully what is anxiety and what is a legitimate health issue. :(
