Mum Thinks I Fake Asthma Attacks

How to fake an asthma attack?

Make a wistling noise when you breathe and breathe very hard. Cough a lot and dont stop. Your face will then turn bright red and you will begin to sweat. Just don't get sick enough to be taken to the hospital because they will check you blood oxygen leval than they will know that your not having an asthma attack and start inverstigaing your new problem. Its no telling what they will come up with and you do not want that.

A faked asthma attack?

There is a woman at my dance class, who claims to have a severe reaction to the smell of smoke. I witnessed one of her attacks. It was supposedly triggered by smelling the clothing of someone who had just come in from having an asthma attack. She was breathing in and out quickly, but with no wheezing, and there was no wheesing when she coughed.

To me, as an asthmatic myself, it seems like she must be faking it. Thick second hand smoke or smoking itself I have to avoid during an attack, but the smell of smoke alone would NEVER trigger an asthma attack for me. And, for me, no wheezing=no asthma attack. She also doesn't seem to have an inhaler, which strikes me odd. The whole thing seems to suggest quite stronly that she does not have asthma.


Why would someone fake an asthma attack? Could it be a lie to cover up that she is really having an anxiety attack? Could it be a way of manipulating people and getting attention? Could it be a form of hypochondria, where she really believes that she has athsma? Could it be that she has a very mild case of athsma that she flips out about and exaggerates in her own head?

Could I be wrong? Are there different kinds of asthma. As an asthmatic myself, who has also known some other asthmatics, I find it really disturbing to witness what appears to be a faked asthma attack? Should I just avoid her, or should I confront her about my concerns if she keeps on going with this so-called "SEVERE" smole allergy that she has....so severe that even the smell of smoke can trigger it. By the way, I don't even think it is possible to be allergic to smoke, it is just very hard to deal with a lot of smoke during an attack because it irritates the lungs.

How to fake an asthma attack??

Why on earth would you want to fake one? I wouldn't wish that feeling on anybody - it's scary as hell. You don't want to pretend you have it or even wish you had it. Be grateful that you are healthy and don't have to deal with the daily struggles an asthmatic does. Enjoy a healthy life without wanting to fake an illness.

How to fake an asthma attack?

Start coughing and breathing heavily through mouth, with shoulders and collarbones lifting as you breathe.(make sure lung action is noticeable.) Sit on your bed. Talk like someone with only a little bit of breathe left. Spalsh a little anger on your face, and when you talk. Talk seldomly while faking it.(remember, people with asthma attacks do NOT like talking. Because of their shortness of breathe.)

I advise you not to do this. If you will pull it off well!!!

Is it possible to fake an asthma attack?

If you fake wheeze and panic, could you fool people into thinking you're having an asthma attack?
If paramedics came, would they be fooled (assuming it was a very good actress)? It increases your heart rate and lowers your pulse ox a little too, so would it still come across as real?
