Is it normal to have panic attacks more when sleep deprived? after months of feeling like hardly slept, body feel numb and can't catch breath ev day.

Pcp: Please see your doctor about your symptoms. He/she needs to assess whether there are other medical reasons for them before one can be confident of diagnosis. Being tired can make it difficult to manage stress but it is important to understand what may be behind your feeling tired, numb and trouble breathing.
