Bi polar type 2, cries allot, lately has been having trouble breathing when upset like an anxiety attack, can this cause future heart problems?

If you are having: Panic attacks - that doesn't hurt the heart. However, normally one would have medical causes for issues with breathed ruled in or out. In other words, would have the symptoms formally evaluated. Take care.
