As a respiratory therapist with extensive experience in managing patients' oxygen therapy, I can tell you that it is indeed possible to breathe too much oxygen. When the body is exposed to increased partial pressures of oxygen for a prolonged period, it can lead to a condition known as hyperoxia, which is an excess of oxygen in the body tissues. This overabundance of oxygen can be harmful and can cause central nervous system toxicity, which is the result of short exposure to high partial pressures of oxygen at levels greater than atmospheric pressure. It's important to regulate the amount of oxygen a person receives, especially in a clinical setting, to prevent such complications.
