I've already tried stopping and reducing my medication. All that does is end up with me being hospitalised. I don't have mild asthma, I have chronic asthma. That's not the kind of thing you can heal with breathing techniques.

Yeah I had chronic asthma as well, I was hospitalised multiple times and I'd been on medication for 16yrs. I learnt the techniques and over 6months as I felt comfortable I was able to reduce my medication. You'd be mad to just stop your medication cold turkey. I'm not advocating that.
Have you tried?

It may or may not solve the problem but has the potential to cut away some of the anxiety and trauma connected to not getting enough oxygen.
