Could this be a symptom of my anxiety?

Question

Hi. I have severe anxiety. sometimes, like now, I feel like my throat is very tight and like there is something stuck in my throat. It makes me want to gag. Could this be a symptom of my anxiety?

It almost feels like my tonsils are hanging down and touching the bottom of my throat.. but it is normal. my tonsils are normal..

Could that be anxiety?

Answer 1

It does sound like it, get some valerian root to chew, or some valerian tea and you'll find your symptoms easing.

Answer 2

definitely

i feel this too when i have an anxiety attack

you need to take your mind off of it.

but only you will know what can distract your anxious thoughts.
