DoeS anyone else have trouble with hyperventilation?

Post Reply New Topic

I was just wondering if anyone here has meltdowns that typically consist of hyperventilation. Most people do not describe this in their meltdowns and I was wondering if anyone else had this problem and how you manage it.

Sighing is a gentler way to increase bodily oxygen than hyperventilation

I would suggest 10 deep breathes, over a 3-4 minute period, 5 times a day

It is interesting that you say that because I sigh a lot and my parents seldom let me forget it and often mock me for it. I wonder if they are related somehow?

yes yes your body wants oxygen, because you are breathing too shallow

BECAUSE OF STRESS!! !

10 deep breathes

This is how all my meltdowns start, intense hyperventilation.

Don't know if I'd connect them with meltdowns. But I'm prone to panic attacks, of which hyperventilation is a big part.

My ex sighed, then I started sighing. How can sighing be contracted??

Is there a viral or bacteria element? parasitic??

I never has headaches or sighed till we swapped spit and reproductive juices.

My herbalist reckons its a spiritual thingy, but shes a bit crazy

No, but I do tend to "forget to breathe" in the normal course of things. I literally have to remind myself to breathe, lest I pass out. I also tend to breathe very shallowly. It's also not connected to meltdowns, just poor interoception I surmise.
