    It's not a toy, dumbass.

  • An inhaler has medication in it that patients use for asthma and/or allergy control. Most of these medications act on receptors in the body that speed up the heart and squeeze the blood vessels. These receptors are the same as in the "fight/flight phenomenon." Your sympathetic nervous system is in overdrive right now. To be on the safe side you should contact a doctor or get yourself checked by an emergency doctor.
