Very well could be anxiety but it could be something like sleep apnea so you should get that checked

i've occasionally had a similar symptom in particularly stressful nights. my breathing is extremely shallow to begin with, so it was hard for me to notice until i ended up gasping. i can't speak for your situation, but usually this precedes an anxiety attack for me.
@Annie24 I don’t know if it’s sleep apnea though because I don’t snore much
