@ILoveSharpay believe me you shouldnt pray you have it i pray every day that i didnt but you just have to get over it and move on, i think about every breath i take and every thing i do because i know some stuff will send me to the hospital if i eat it or touch it because i get such a severe attack. its always with you and once you have it you pray every day that you didnt, but ive had it since i was born so i know nothing else but asthma
hope you dont have asthma 
@lolsmileyface9999 i know mine doesnt work for me at all most of the time so i have to use like 3 nebulizer treatments before it starts to work, but if i use like 30 puffs of my inhaler then it sometimes works
@realeizut i know i hate it when people fake asthma attacks to get out of things they dont want to do or play up their asthma i have severe asthma and i run and swim and just try to live normally and you see people with mild asthma playing up attacks to get sympathy or to get out of stuff. i have been in the hospital many times and almost died a fair few times and was almost put on a ventilator they were debating it but i was fighting it to hard so they decided not to for the minute.
@commandercruger well i used to lose my inhaler everywhere i went, but now i take 2 everywhere i always keep one in my bag and put one in my pocket and in the small chance i forget it i learnt to calm myself by leaving the classroom or putting my head down on the table and concentrating on breathing in through ur nose and out through ur mouth and i learnt the bowen move and it works so well for mild attacks (im 15)
@J3LLIIBEAN yeh i relise now that when i used to forget my inhaler as a kid i was risking my life everytime, so now i check before i go out, inhaler, keys, wallet, phone, but if i go out with my mum she always carries a spare becuase me my brother and my mum all have asthma and my dad had it as a kid . last time i forgot it was the other day at school and what do u know i had an attack and had to use my friends
bad luck
@musicfreak556 OMGGG ! IS IT THAT HARD TO GET IT THROUGH YOUR GUY’S HEAD! I PRAY I HAVE IT BECAUSE THEN I DONT KNOW WHAT THE HEL* IS WRONG WITH ME IF I DONT!! OK!? ((p.s. yes i do have it.)) so im fine now.
@ILoveSharpay well i understand where you are coming from with the praying to have it because i know what it is like to not know and to hope its something because you have no hope left if its not and you feel your life depends on this diagnosis, its like if this comes back negative then theres no hope left for you, like maybe u werent ment for this world
@suarneduj The government wants to reduce the population? that’s the lamest excuse for wrong lifestyle I have ever seen in my life!
@Jerrime2009 iv got it , it truly is hellish
I watched this vid while i was using my nebulizer
@GOGATORSFL coolstorybro.
I met Heart attack due to asthma.
I have very severe asthma and lung damage from premature birth (16 weeks) It’s no freaking joke. I can get an asthma attack just from climbing stairs, extreme emotion (crying, laughing, anger, etc.), or sitting around doing nothing. o__O It just got so bad that I have to carry an Epipen with me, now. Of course I carry an inhaler with me everywhere, but…
i have asthma and its the worst illness…..you cant breath…omg is terrible
My wife’s friend son also had asthma when he was born, he had to use machine for helping him to breath at night for 8 years. Until 3 years ago, she was introduced by her sister regarding a product from Taiwan, he was taking it until now, his asthma was all gone and he grew taller, bigger and healthier. The whole family is so happy. I am also taking it. If you are interested, please contact my wife at schiu@firstam.com for more details. Good luck to all.
so if im swimming then later on i have a mucus in my throat is that from my asthma?
@clngogo
the mucus was not generated from swimming but it could be from your lung, stomach or small intestines. You need to observe the color of the mucus, if it is light grey which is coming from your lung; if it is yellow or white which is coming from your stomach and small intestines.
For another viewpoint “Understanding asthma” Google “Buteyko”
@Jerrime2009 how about shortness of breath while delivering a child
I have exercise-induced asthma (the doctor diagnosed me with it) but when I have attacks it doesn’t feel like “breathing through a pinched straw”. I have all the symptoms, but do you have to feel like that for it to count?
I have uncontrolable asthma. I have a really bad cold right now and right now i feel like i can’t breathe.
@Kari166
I have a bad asthma attack when i laugh really hard or cry.I have to go to the ER so no one can tickle me or i can’t breathe and it takes a longggg time for me to get back into the regular breathing.
@TheBabbygirl16, same! It’s horrible.
having asthma and allergies suck so much =(.
I found out 3 days ago that I have Pneumonia on top of Asthma right now.
In fact, some of the ancient Egyptian tombs which have been opened in contemporary times even have given off faint scents of herbs and revealed faint traces of herbs which go to show that the Egyptians indeed had been among the first to create use of aromatherapy, and despite the fact that it was rather crudely carried out, this has nevertheless been recorded within the continuing history of aromatherapy.
