Much like most people ive read on these forums, I have been living with this awful sensation that I can't take a deep breath, luckily though the feeling of excessive yawning has gone away, but I still am unsatisfied with my breaths.
It started two years ago when I was 6 months pregnant with my first, and I thought it was just because I was pregnant. But after I had her it persisted and I developed the feeling of having to yawn all the time just to feel like my breath could get deeper. Anyways when my first turned nine months old, (about a year after living with this) I was all the sudden better. I wasn't yawning anymore, and I could take a deep breath that satisfied practically 90% of the time. I still had moments where a deep breath wouldn't feel as good but it wasn't anything that made me overthink it. The only thing I can think of that I changed that would have helped this is I stated to take Omeprazole because I do suffer with acid reflux pretty bad, and I also started to drink lots and lots of water! Let me also say that after my first was born I had Postpartum depression and anxiety really bad. But never took any medication for it! I lived free of this stupid think for a year and even was pregnant! Well fast forward to now after I had my second baby I got postpartum anxiety really really bad! I was dealing with panic attacks at least twice a day! I tried Lexapro and hated it, and now am trying ZOloft but I don't know how well it's working, but I was also just diagnosed with Bipolar disorder so I will be switching that medication. Anyways I am also taking protonix for acid reflux, but nothing is helping! I just want to be better and want this to go away! PLEASE ANYTHING HELPS!!!!
