Can't catch my breath...

[astralprojections]

It seems like no matter what, for the past 3 days, I haven't been able to get my breath back to usual after a panic attack. It seems that no matter how hard or slow I breathe, I end up failing. And my chest isn't even in any pain, it's just that no matter how hard I try to breathe, it seems that I'm always in a constant cycle of trying to catch my breath. Is there anything you guys do to combat this? Obviously, it's a very common symptom of anxiety; however, I don't really know how to cope with it or get my breath back.

Have you tried 4-7-8 or box breathing exercises? That helps me sometimes when I feel out of breath.
