A member asked:
When you become aware of your own breathing, thus doing it consciously and obsessively is it anxiety? wat technique may i use to unconsciously breathe
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mindfulness: Try mindful strategies, focusing on sensory input from all your senses. Distraction can help. Your automatic breathing will return on its own, not to worry.
