Eating

Does anyone have trouble eating?? After I eat my whole chest feels tight and like I am going to have a heart attack any second. It's controlling my life now. I can't even eat without horrible feelings in body. Then when I'm hungry I also get terrible anxiety.

Such a basic need of life now being taken from me. I've stopped drinking alcohol, drinking coffee and sugary drinks as a result of this and now it seems it wants me to stop eating too. Won't be happy until I'm dead will it

I totally sympathise I've stopped eating out at meals as the thought of choking in front of people fills me with dread I wouldn't wish this anxiety on my worst enemy ... hope you feel better soon

i get this also does it feel like you need to take a deep breath?
