Wake up
Couldn't think of a better topic name but....not sure if this is normal, abnormal or just a figment of my imagination. When I first wake up, I feel fine. No thoughts of COPD, no heaviness or feeling that need to cough. But, by the time I finish my coffee, those feelings, thoughts and symptoms have returned and it's back to my usual existence. Is this normal or do I need to seek (humor attempt) psychological help?

I know exactly what you mean. And no, you do not need psychological help. I get up and go through a wake up period. It is usually an hour before I start to cough and clear out my lungs in the morning. I think it is from sleeping and not being active calms everything down and your breathing is not hard or forced. But once you are up and moving (making coffee, making breakfast, making up the bed, etc.)your breathing becomes more necessary and harder at times depending on what you are doing. Hence the reason to take things slow and not over due it. It does take time to get moving in the morning. So you are not alone in that respect. Take care and God Bless!Thanks for the insight. I'll cancel my appointment to the shrink...lol
