Why does a bad cold cause me to gasp for breath in the middle of the night?

When I get a REALLY bad cold, occasionally i’ll wake up in the middle of the night unable to take a breath, or breath out, without EXTREME difficulty. It lasts about 30 seconds or so. My unprofessional guess is that post-nasal drip has triggered my epiglottis to close, but it’s really scary and i’m not sure if that’s the answer or not. What is it and what can I do about it?

I have bad breath. my tongue clings to the roof of my mouth?

my tongue always sticked to the roof of my mouth, which i think is the cause of my bad breath since my tongue is always covered, so what do i do? my tongue never comes down! i tried relaxing my mouth, but i guess i’m a naturally tense person because it goes right back up!

i try all of that, but since my tongue clings to the roof of my mouth, i get bad breath all over again!

i dont have dental insurance so i can’t afford that. this sucks.
