Red Flag: Jake, to list the possible difficulties would be unkind; you describe both extreme physical & extreme psychiatric difficulties. See your physician asap! do you not deserve basic medical attention? I sure think you do. Let's utilize your 60 remaining years with purpose.

Anxiety: BP is wnl maybe a little on the high side for ur age; height/weight not bad... How long r u brushing ur teeth for? 2 mins should do the trick... If ur brushing for like 20 mins (!) that'd maybe explain out of breath. Otherwise, maybe chronic anxiety could be consistent w/ the symptoms u r describing. Do u ever feel chest pains/tightness/pressure? If yes u could have anxiety disorder.
