New symptom?

[Gmfc]

Hi all today my throat started to feel tight and like there is a lump in it. It doesn’t hurt to swallow but it’s making me panic. Anyone experience this?

[Sasical]

Yep, loaaaads of times and I think you will find that most people with anxiety have experienced it, it's a really uncomfortable feeling, but that is all it is, a feeling. Unless it's just a bit of a sore throat, but either way nothing to worry about

Good to know. First time I’ve experienced it and it scared the crap out me!!!

[Kathush]

Yes, i also have had that. Look up "globus sensation" It is anxiety related.

It’s Globus , very common with anxiety. It’s scary but can’t hurt you try and dismiss it. If you have muscle relaxers they will help or drink cold water fast.
