Breathing Issues and Sleep

[Mina_Frostfall]

Sometimes I feel deprived of air, but no matter how much air I take in it doesn't help. When this happens I also feel tired. I don't know if it causes the tiredness or the tiredness brings it on. I just want to sleep when I feel that way, but I can't because I feel like I need to try and breathe as deeply as possible. This happens once and a great while, but I never gave it much thought before. Now that I do think of it I wonder; could I have asthma? Does this sound like it could be asthma?

I have asthma and its when your airway constricts, causing wheezing and it feels like breathing through a straw.  yeah  not fun.

It does sound like asthma, I would go to the doctors if I was you hun.

Im the king(Or queen?)of loosing sleep.
Its not because of lack of sleep, all that ever happens to me is hearing voices, and hallucinations. Which happened alot this past week during exams.

But asthma is caused by things inflaming etc. in the end like Audrey said airway constricts. Get an inhaler which I think causes your heart to speed up, and allows you to breathe better.
Or you could go the utterly stupid route, have one never use it even with a asthma attack. After 2 years I used it once because of never using it. I "Trained" myself to become less dependent, even in very dangerous situations. But hey I dont worry about it anymore, and never weaze as much.

I had this problem for years and finally went to the doctor a few years ago to be diagnosed with Asthma... so yeah sounds like it to me too.
