COPD affects your ability to breathe. Some people with COPD find they need to restrict their daily activities, and some become unable to work or exercise. If your COPD prevents you from doing things you once enjoyed, you may feel a sense of loss. While you adjust to your new lifestyle, it’s common to feel:
