I keep having these weird jittery laughs in my chest. Its been happening for years. and sometimes when it happens it feels like I have to force myself to breathe. Im wondering if its an anxiety symptom but  sometimes it happens and im not even anxious.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, you are mostly having stress and anxiety related symptoms. But better to rule heart disease like arrhythmia because this can also cause similar symptoms. So first get done ECG, 2d echo and Holder monitoring (24 hour continuous monitoring of ECG). If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Your symptoms are mostly due to anxiety and stress. So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright. First rule out arrhythmia. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
