Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
Your breathing problem in night, can occur due to following cause:
-Stress and anxiety: As it can present itself as panic symptoms and choking sensation. You already have history of anxiety.
-
Sleep Apnea syndrome: Although you are not
overweight and nobody has noticed snoring in your case.
Sleep apnea can be rule out by sleep studies by
neurologist. After that you can meet nearby
psychiatrist for management of anxiety.
Same time follow steps of
sleep hygiene, which will help you in good sleep:
