This set of graphs along with many other deep dives into my decade of data was made with Flourish. There's also a graph made with Venngage and a graph made from Microsoft tools on my blog (the first link).

Holy shit. How is it possible to sneeze this much? Are you OK?

Do you have a pepper shaker permanently lodged up your nose?

As a fellow hyper sneezer yes, 6-8 times a day minimum for me. My sneeze reflex is extra sensitive so the previous sneeze triggers me to sneeze again. My record I think is 30 in a row.

That is super interesting! I probably sneeze 30 times a year.

I sought surgical intervention but declined it as there was a 50:50 chance I’d lose my sense of smell

Ouch, yeah, not worth the risk. Sounds very annoying to live with, but I guess there are worse things.

Did you move to a new location after 2016?

Nope. I did go away for university from 2014-2018. The big spikes in summer '15/'16 are from working in a book warehouse.

Not that I am aware of.

It's hereditary to some extent. I sneeze a lot but my bouts are only 2-4 times on average though.

This is fascinating. I couldn't possibly log anything with this consistency for 10 years.

This guy really counted all his sneezes to get 50 karma. Impressive anyway I admire the commitment

Fexofenadine (generic for Allegra) works wonders for allergies, and doesn't really make you drowsy.

I used to by hyper allergic too, to 400 different triggers when tested.

I also had paroxysmal repetitive sneezing. Allergic rhinitis, according to the Navy.

The change came when modern pharma and my excellent Princeton-trained asthma specialist got my case.

Totally fixed now. For sneezing, Claritin/generic, along with Montelukast, daily.

For asthma, Wixela and Xopenex inhalers in addition.

i neither have the patience nor willpower to try something like that 🥴

claps 👏👏👏 for efforts, consistency man!🫡

allergies sucks!

Impressive dedication over ten years! Kudos!
What are the yearly totals?
Mine for 2022 was 930 but I also noted the number of “sneeze events” (385) and especially the number of time sunlight or other bright lights caused the sneeze.

I’m not sure of how to represent this as a graph.

I've just seen these - fantastic detail! Kudos again!

Do you get hay fever or allergic rhinitis, /u/Coolbeans4_? Cause I sneeze as much as you if not more, and I apparently have severe allergic rhinitis. No antihistamine works since it's not exactly an allergic reaction but more a fever that you get sometimes every 2 weeks, sometimes once a month. But I get it at least 10 times a year. The only thing that vaguely works is this thing called A-Ferin Sinus which stops the sneezing and the runny nose but absolutely kills you for the next 4 hours or so.

How does this only have 105 upvotes? Logically impossible

My nose is itching just by looking at that.

I'll sometimes sneeze 30 times in a row.

Wow. 2013, 2015, and 2016 were all pretty standout years. I feel like 2017 was the year you discovered Claritin?

Yearly totals range from 1474 to 3582 for a 10-year total of 24368.
Sunlight also causes me to sneeze a fair amount too!

No! I sneeze a lot, but I don't have constant allergies and my nose isn't runny or anything. Once a year, I get a mild cold and I sneeze more, but otherwise, I'm not at all suffering because of my sneezing.

In the summers of 2015 and 2016, I worked in a dusty book warehouse, so that brought up my numbers considerably. In the summer of 2017 I got an office job in a fairly new building.
