Jamie1989, this is a very common symptom of anxiety. It is not harmful, you can swallow, you can breathe. It's a tightening of the throat muscles due to stress and fear. Try sipping on warm water which will help relax the muscle as well as hydrate your throat. Sit and relax while doing that but then it's time to forget about it and get involved with something else. It does go away by itself. Relaxxxx

Hi Jamie. I also had the same systopms of lump in the throat which at time was in the middle and then at the side. Yes I drank cold water and tried to take my mind away from the throat. Good luck cause it freaked me out.

Yes it is very common. Anxiety can make you think that you have all sorts of problems that you don't really have. Stay strong and best wishes!

Thank u that's what I'm trying to do but it's hard some days

[Rqharper in reply to Hidden]

Those are the days when we have to fight even harder. We are stronger than this anxiety. If you need someone to talk to when you have hard days you can always message me.
