  I am an asthma sufferer. I have had many very bad attacks. I have been admitted to hospital and put on steroids. But you have hit the nail on the head! I moved out of home at 16 and because I was poor, I didnt have money to fund my medication. I was in denial for a while thinking I could live without it. I would control my breathing through my attacks. Also, black coffee was good for depleting the symptoms. Many hospital trips and steriods later, I have realised that I DO have asthma and that it needs to be treated. As it is a very aggressive chronic strain. However, my friend Jase has done the same thing and has not had to puff on an inhaler for 4 years. He said that the trick was not to register in your brain that you're having trouble breathing, as he felt it was slight panic that triggered it off....change the breathing pattern and get on with other stuff...it will have far less physical effect on you and last a fraction of an hour!! Keep it up and good luck, I'm sure you can gain full control of your own body. I only wish I could have done the same. I still use the breathing techniques and black coffee sometimes to avoid steroids.

    Why are you talking like you can't try again?

  Thanks for all the support. I gave up later in the evening because I started to get exhausted, but I do know that I can do it now. I feel that the more I practice, the stronger my lungs will get.

    Well, technically any asthma symptom is an "attack." The terms for asthma are a bit melodramatic...
    
    Thanks a lot. =)
