breathing wrong

yo,

i just noticed i have been breathing wrong all the time automatically.
been having chest pains and so on and feel like wasnt getting enough oxygen in my blood and just now infront of the mirror i randomly realised i wasnt breathing right.

for one i wasnt using my lower abdomen so there was no diaphragm movement at all in m breathing, full upper chest which probably caused pressure on it and obviously isnt the right way to breathe, but also i noticed i was inflating my chest when breathing out and deflating when breathing in... all this done without me realising.

so is it a autistic thing to subconsciously get your breathing all completely wrong? lol

i then focused in the mirror while up right breathing right, by inflating my lower abdomen when breathing in and tightening when breathing out,. for the first few minutes my diaphragm hurt showing that it was indeed under used and weak from lack of use. but i focused and did it until it didnt feel painful and now the weird chest feeling has gone away and feels normal.

just thought id share... incase some of you try and see if the same is for you and then it might help you if you didnt realise it and can fix it.
although seeing as i was breathing wrong without me realising i guess it would happen again.

    You do not need to tighten in when you exhale. 

    Keep it relaxed. 

    Perhaps learn some diaphragmatic breathing alongside vocal support.

    The only pull in needed is if you are a singer, and even then that is for advanced singing methods. 

    Many people do not breath correctly, they breath correctly when they are babies, and then they end up breathing up in the chest area. 

    Be careful when practicing correct breathing, it can make people feel dizzy for a while , as the body gets used to it. 

    Eventually you can build up on the breathing methods and benefit health wise. 

    I am a trained singer by the bel canto masters.  

    In time you can train your body so that you breath correctly without having to focus your mind on it. 

    There is even more advanced breathing techniques you can add to that. 

    For us singers it helps keep a long note.
