I'm having trouble with the freestyle stroke breathing technique. I start off by inhaling, then swimming 3 strokes. When I roll over to the side to breath, I either end up swallowing water, or just simply sink without being able to take a breath. What can I do to fix this?

Quite a few thread deal with this - search "bilateral".
What helped me was doing sets of 300 - 100 bilateral, 100 easy side, 100 hard side and repeat.
(That said, I'm still not comfortable doing it and have to 'make myself'.)
