Need more info: it is very hard to tell exactly what your problem is without more information. If you are wheezing then, you may be having an asthma attack. If you are simply breathing very shallowly then, you may be hyperventilating. This could be due to nervousness, anxiousness, or pain. If this just developed and you have chest pain associated with breathing then, you should go to an emergency room.
