What does a normal throat feel like?? After being hypersensitive to mine from getting choked on milk 3 months ago I'm afraid I'm stuck this way and I dont know what I should do. 😰

I know it's hard when you've had a bad experience but being "normal" is often about trying not to be hyper-vigilant. It's v hard when you have anxiety not to be alert to every tiny sensation. This can make you tense which in itself can cause problems. Do whatever seems to work for you - steam inhalation, maybe, to soothe your throat and sinuses and reassure you that everything is working ok.

Will the being hyper vigilance fade?? I'm so focused on my Throat and I have been for 3 months. How do I stop? I try to stay busy but it seems impossible to not pay attention to it. I can't believe choking on milk could cause such issues. I'm coughing up mucus and so into every little feeling back there it seems it's always changing how it feels and it makes me think I'm losing my mind because I don't understand what's happening to me and why I can't remember what it's supposed to feel like. I don't wanna be stuck this way. But I don't know how it supposed to be. 😓
