Does any other schizophrenic experience this?
I definitely do. I used to think that the suffocating feelings was just an additional thing I had when my anxiety was high, but I have been feeling it out of the blue too during good days. I combat the intrusive thoughts that those feelings strike when I have been "seen" or "targeted" by something (idk what) and that I need to run. Similar to how I react in nightmares I guess..
