I'm struggling with breathing when I'm asleep at night. It doesn't happen during the day, though, when I take naps. I initially thought it could be because of acidity, but I've ruled that out. What could be causing this?

I've been dealing with asthma since I was 3, and for a while, around when I was 18 or 19, I was doing really well. I was playing football and doing all sorts of activities that aren't typically recommended for asthmatics. But in the last couple of years, I quit playing football, and since then, I've gained weight and my breathing issues have worsened. Now I'm back to relying on my regular medications like Alegra M, the inhaler Salbair, and Formoflow. Lately, I find myself struggling to hold my breath for even half a minute, and I'm going through an inhaler every couple of days. Could you suggest any tips to help me manage my current situation better?
