coolbeans278, strong emotion can trigger asthma. Anger is not a trigger for me, but stress/anxiety are (which is unfortunate, because I tend to get anxious when I can't breathe and that starts a positive feedback loop). I don't get anxiety attacks: anxiety attacks don't cause a drop in peak flow, coughing, or hypoxia, all of which I can get when I have an anxiety-triggered asthma attack. That said, if you do have emotional asthma, you do need to see a counselor to help you control your emotions.
ummm if it was really anger related then pplz would be seeing psychologists rather than a GP. while yes panic attacks and other asthma like symptoms are related to psychological issues, asthma attacks are brought on not so much by that as it is a weakness in the lungs hence why steroids(usually a very low doseage.) is used to treat it, also sometimes cause by smoking, allergies..ect. the one in the vid is caused by environmental toxins such as CO2 from cars and city buses, also mold.

Scientists need to work with naturalpaths. Asthma is a sign of withholding anger. Of course innercity folks are a wee bit angrier than most esp. given the unnecessary racism ppl in Central Harlem experience simply because of the color of their skin. Attitudes, perceptions and patterns of prejudice. Of course asthma is 4 times higher. I too have asthma.
