Hey! Another PACWESTER!  Welcome to BT!!!!  Best place to be for advice and the like. You could post your breathing problem in TRITALK if you are looking for some tips.

Welcome!  Breathing will come, you have to give it a chance especially if you are new to it.  The first step is to breath on one side every other stroke (or complete cycle) - so you will be breathing on the same side (the most comfortable one) but you get to breath often, make sure to exhale completely underwater before taking the next breath.  Try to breath by turning you head to the side instead of lifting it up to the front.  After that becomes comfortable you can think about breathing every 3 strokes (alternate sides) for better balance.

It will take many months to get used to it but you should get it. Good luck!
