Allergic rhinitis...is making my days feel bad.

what's making me feel so tired and irritable and weak, i am sure is also making others feel the same way if they have ALLERGIC RHINITIS.


Allergic rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal passages, usually associated with watery nasal discharge and itching of the nose and eyes.

Allergic rhinitis is a collection of symptoms, mostly in the nose and eyes, which occur when you breathe in something you are allergic to, such as dust, dander, or pollen.

Symptoms that occur shortly after you come into contact with the substance you are allergic to may include:

Itchy nose, mouth, eyes, throat, skin, or any area
Problems with smell
Runny nose
Sneezing
Tearing eyes

Symptoms that may develop later include:

Stuffy nose (nasal congestion)
Coughing
Clogged ears and decreased sense of smell
Sore throat
Dark circles under the eyes
Puffiness under the eyes
Fatigue and irritability
Headache
Memory problems and slowed thinking

for the past weeks..and it seems this has gone for so long this time, i have been dealing with my allergy. it is making me feel weak and helpless, especially when i sneeze non stop and my eyes are tearing and puffy and red. i can not trace what triggers it..it just does.

last night, i was so scared because for the first time, i could not breath air, it was like the passages inside my nose had closed and i was really breathing heavily, trying to ease some air inside of me. it was no use breathing thru my mouth because it only made my throat dry more. i can't make myself panic over what was happening, so i tried to control my fear and just concentrate on long, heavy, painful breathes. it lasted for over an hour, my laborious breathing. it scared me a lot.

wishing my anti histamines are always handy...
