Hi Thanks for writing to Health Care Magic Generalised anxiety causes shallow breathing. Anxiety is opposite of relaxation. When one is relaxed he breathes deep. Exactly opposite appens when one is anxious. There is nothing to worry about. Try practising deep breathing techniques every day. Sit at a calm place and take deep and slow inspiration. This should be followed by slow expiration. Hear soothing music and do activities that give u pleasure. Make relaxation a habit. Also consult ur doctor who prescribes u anxiolytics. These drugs cause automatic relaxation and ur breathing gets normal. The other symptoms of anxiety include restlessness, sweating, rapid and shallow breathing, increased heart rate, confusion, disturbed bowels and increased frequency of urination. Consult a specialist for better help Hope this helps u Thanks and regards
