Trouble swallowing

So had a complete awful episode out of the blue where it was like I just couldn’t swallow at all. It freaked me out .... it just came out of nowhere . I really had to think about it until I could actually swallow ... I don’t get it .. it was awful and threw me into complete panic :(

It does sound like panic , if your not thinking about it it doesn’t happen , but in anxiety mode you can feel that way. That will fade or come and go, try and make meal time relaxing, maybe watch tv if at home and focus on that, or have a book at the table. Some people have water to sip with meals. Good luck and try and relax
