Hiya, I too am new to this whole forum thing! I've had lots of anxiety experience over the years and at times have had the 'stuck' throat thing. Like many symptoms associated with anxiety, they are difficult to explain. I reckon I just tense up (especially in a group) and that includes my throat sometimes. There is lots of help and advice on this website, I'm sure some of it will be useful to you. xx
