Globus

[MrsB08]

Globus is back badly. Having this is now raising my anxiety to a whole new level. Vicious circle. Please go away.... was doing well there. Thought I was actually getting some peace.

Hello

Sorry to hear after doing so well your Globus has appeared again this is so frustrating and really sets us back when things like this happen

I have been suffering with indigestion problems and have been having this Globus feeling with it so I know how it feels

I find sipping cold water or having a drink of milk can help keeps the back of the throat moist and helps with that dry feeling I feel I get with it

Have you been checked that nothing is causing this other than anxiety , if you have then accepting this is something that appears when you may be over tired or even when you do not always feel like you feel anxious but it can try and sneak in can really help even though when we go in an instant panic accepting can feel something really hard to do

Imagine all the times you have had this feeling and nothing bad has come from it really pointing to anxiety which as horrible as it feels won't kill us , remind yourself of this over and over again until you can feel yourself accepting

Give yourself some praise for how well you have been doing . see this as a blip to be expected when overcoming our anxiety but one that will pass again

Take Care x

Hi Mrsb08, sorry to hear that it's back! Though it's good you've been doing better. Very often we have set backs it's just learning to not let them get the better of us and reminding ourselves we've had a glimpse of feeling brighter. Globus is horrible and bounces advice is spot on .... I hope your soon on the up again, take care x
