I have had bouts on and off for years with my swallowing. This time around it has lasted over a year now. I can swallow pretty good right when I wake from sleeping, or when I have drank a bunch of alcohol. I can’t even swallow water, or my own saliva. It seems as if I focus on my throat while swallowing, and my brain will tell my throat halfway threw to stop. I’m afraid that I’m going to inhale my food one of these times when my throat stops. There has to be some mi f of help for this. I feel like I’m going to die from not eating enough. I do eat a lot when I first wake up in the morning, but about an hour after being up my mind starts thinking about swallowing, and I start having anxiety about swallowing f. My mom died from choking. So this has to be a lot of the fear. I had this fear before her choking though. Just never this bad.
