what on earth is wrong with my breathing? Mysterious shortness of breath

Posted , 1 user is following.

Hi I am a 25 year old female who suddenly got breathing difficulties one night in July 2019. just started randomly and now can't get rid of it completely ever. it is like I can not take a deep or satisfying breath 90% of the time. keep taking a super deep breath every minute nearly all day long from waking up till I fall asleep which are only half unsatisfying breaths a majority of the time. it is so debilitating and uncomfortable. I can't enjoy my life any more like I used to before this started. cant work, cant shop, cant socialise due to embarrassment of this weird breathing. what the heck could it truly be? been to 15 doctors in total and some said just anxiety and some say my overwight is the problem. but I never seen it in other overweight people so I was sceptical about that answer. few doctors did several tests and nothing was found abnormal really. I really have a desire to find out what it really is. what on earth could it possibly be? something so rare or nearly unheard of, or a new respiratory problem that even doctors don't know? I have never ever seen this kind of breathing in anyone neither has anyone of my family or people I know. what is it what is it. someone please help me with what this could actually be. even lung specialist could not answer that. I am very upset that this had to happen. will I ever experience normal breathing again. i am afraid. please could anyone point me in a direction to get serious help or what to try and do about it. advice and opinions of this would be very appreciated. thank you.
