I don't know. It could be mild asthma, it could be anxiety, it could be something else entirely.
Does it seem to happen more at certain times? Do you have any other symptoms when it happens? How long has this been going on?

Thank you for your thoughts.I noticed this for a while now and comes usually in the afternoon.Yes I am worried more than usual and scared that something bad is going to happen to my mom.I did not know anxiety can cause this necessity to take deep breaths and I also have a lot of allergies so mild asthma is another thing to consider.How can I help myself as of right now I have no health insurance?

Well, if it has anything to do with allergies, staying in air conditioning and away from stuff you are allergic to will help. Change the filters on your AC if you haven't lately. Exercise also makes the lungs stronger.
And, yes, anxiety can cause assorted physical symptoms, and being short of breath is one of them.
If you start to have a substantial amount of trouble breathing, go to the ER of course.
