I can't believe what your saying, You'd better see a doctor and quick, your lungs can shut down or you can contract chemical pneumonia. you've probably damaged your lungs and are not out of the water yet so, you'd better see someone, preferably in an ER way and tell them what you did so they can evaluate you.

If you read on the antifreeze label, it can cause blindness if ingested, or used to say that. Inhaling is still taking it into your body, so can't be good. It's got to do major damage to lung tissue as well. I would be concerned about lung cancer if it was me.
A friend inhaled gas and antifreeze fumes when he was in an enclosed area too long while working on a car. His eyes, face, lips, and even his hands swelled. It was painful to breathe. He made several trips to the ER for shots, meds, and finally recovered, but he looked bad and felt worse for quite awhile. If I were you, I'd consider going to the doctor.
And if you want an opinion, here's mine.......There's a million other ways to entertain yourself besides doing yourself harm. You really don't impress anyone for long by doing stuff like that and may have bad health problems for the rest of your life just for the decisions you make now. Life can be good when you have your health, but also can be ruined if you did something that permanently gives you bad health. Make up your mind to be a leader and to take care of your future rather than just following what you see others do. And I hope your breathing improves soon, and never happens again.

you may have irritated your lungs. I would go to the doctor if you are worried about it.
