Eating

[phil06]

Can anybody help? Had this issue for months now. My throat tightens but more often it freezes when I try and swallow food and I become very aware of food going down. I usually have to wash it down with a drink but feel I have to force myself to eat anybody else had this?

Yes when very stressed

I always have to force myself to eat and for me it’s a combination of the medications I’m on and stress. I also tend to swallow air when I drink something lately and man that’s painful.

Your definitely not alone in this.

Yes, I've had this a few times in my life, for months at a time, and then it disappears. It's a very common anxiety symptom
