The name for over breathing is hyperventilation, and could be attributed to panic attacks.
Hyperventilation is caused by prolonged and rapid breathing that results in a significant rise in oxygen levels and a decrease in carbon dioxide levels.
Hyperventilation can create faintness and tingling in the fingers and toes and in extreme cases can lead to loss of consciousness (fainting) or respiratory alkalosis; a condition bought on by low levels of carbon dioxide and in which the body fluids have excess base (alkali)
Hyperventilation can be treated by simply breathing into a paper bag. This will create an increased intake of carbon dioxide and in doing so, level out excess levels of oxygen.
