Hi. im pretty sure i had a panic attack about a week ago and now i keep feeeling the sensation that i cant get a full breath. never had anxiety before?

Assessment: I would encourage a medical assessment. Medical causes need to be ruled out. Anxiety can cause this sensation. If you do have an anxiety disorder - would recommend psychiatric/ psychological intervention. Take care.
