Shortness of breath - psychological(cont'd)?

I am 17, don't smoke, and dont have asthma or anything. Now, I am experiencing shortness of breath when I come back from school. During school, it is fine, I totally forget about it, but when I am at home, I suddenly remember and for the rest of the day I am shortness of breath. In my opinion this is all psychological, because if I dont think about it, it goes away, like at school. How can I change my thinking? Also, this mostly happens during talking.

What I did not say in the last post is that yes, I do have anxiety, but at home I rarely feel anxious. Also, if you are going to say "go see a doctor" then dont say anything because I will not go see one(they can just make up any disease and keep treating me for it forever). And I also noticed that it started when I started thinking about it, so if I dont think about it, it doesnt happen.

you can concentrate on breathing deep and slow when you notice this shortness of breath. go ahead and distract urself. if it is physiological it will keep happening. tell ur parents about this and ask them to watch you so if they see you doing this all the time it can't be psychological. tell ur self to breath when u talk, i have prob w that too sometimes. just pause and breath. dont tell a story continuously, find brakes.
so u know i am supposed to have asthma, but i dont believe it. i believe it to be anxiety related, so meds should not be the 1st solution. please if this shortness of breath does not go away, do see a doctor, you could have a disorder that could go away w a small nebulizer treatment which will dilate ur bronchial helping u breath. good luck, hope u feel better
