See your doctor: Sounds like a poorly controlled asthma with night time symptoms. Please see your doctor for asthma management. Most probably you will need daily controller meds.

Asthma: It sounds like the kinds of symptoms you get from asthma. Asthma symptoms usually get worse at night. All of these symptoms suggest that your asthma is not controlled. Let your parents know and ask to see your doctor. Also make sure you are taking your medications as prescribed. Good health.

Anxiety Asthma: An inhaler is not the only medication you should have if you have this symptom every night. You need a medication to prevent bronchospasm, not just to treat a spasm after it occurs. Now the other issue, how you feel and think and experience stress can be making this worse. It is time to get some help for this part of your problem as well.

See a doctor: Night time symptoms are often a sign of poorly controlled asthma and should be evaluated and treated by a doctor. Untreated asthma can be dangerous. There is no need to continue suffering.
