What to do if i am 23 and haven't had an asthma attack in 6 years since i was diagnosed with it. is this common?

Yes: This could occur for two reasons. First you may have outgrown your asthma or if you are taking controller meds, they are working and you are well controlled.

Yes: It is very common to have a remission in asthma during the teen years. However this does not guarantee that it may not return at a later year.
