Haven’t been getting any kind of anxiety pain in my chest since last year. But any pain feeds my anxiety. Almost had a panic attack at the gym but I was able to chill out after stopping lifting for about 10 minutes and was super relaxed but still couldn’t fully get into my workout. I know a panic attack will come on if I can’t catch my breath properly. 

Usually if I start my workout with a walk than a run it circumvents this because my heart and lungs get into a rythym.

I can’t run at full speed tho because the sensation of losing my breath is mainly what causes me to panic.

Any fool proof ways to feel like you can catch your breath I’m always sighing to make it go away or taking a huge breath in and out doesn’t help much tho.
