My kitten who is 6m old has always been a bit of a sneezer but the past couple days I've noticed he's been sneezing A LOT, practically consintently throughout the day. When he sneezes on me it sprays all over me lol......but I don't know if it's nasal discharge because I don't see anything? He also doesn't have eye discharge that's concering, just the normal amount like any animal gets over time. Also when he purrs I hear it in his nose quite a bit. What could this be??

I will follow your post, as Bruce also sneezes a lot, without any discharge visible, apart from the spray sneeze itself.

Bruce has a small bump in his nose, so I don't know if hasn't something to do with his nasal ways being smaller or different than other cats...

My Vet says if there is no discharge and no other behavior issues (eating, drinking, toilet) I shouldn't worry, but as usual I do.

These could be seasonal allergies, just like with people.  Not saying for certain, but where I live it's beginning to be allergy season, and many cats DO have allergies.  You could discuss with your Vets giving them allergy pills like Zyrtec and see if the sneezing stops. 

If not allergies, it could by Feline Herpes, but doesn't sound as likely.
