Throat closing up & feel breathless

[HR68]

For the last few months I have had feelings on and off that my throat is closing up and a lot of tension around my neck muscles. It is mostly worse when IÂ’m walking around. It makes me feel like I am breathless but IÂ’m not chest breathless if that makes sense. It is a feeling that is at the back of my throat. Im 39 and have had health anxiety for most of my life. IÂ’m exhausted with it. I just want it to go away 😢

It sounds like Globus. I have been dealing with it since February this year. Scary and not pleasant at all.

Thank so much for replying. I feel so alone with it. It’s comforting to hear other people’s experiences.

Sounds like you have tension building which can come from stress. Have a look online for a large vocal straw and see if you can do some simple exercises that they suggest which might help with the tension.
