Hello

Yes I do quite a lot as well as having post nasal drip issues which does not help and the more you think about it the more you seem to do it and it can become a habit

I try and break the habit when it starts by sucking on a mint or something

Take Care x

Have you had it for 5weeks before

[Hidden in reply to Leebowles98]

O yes sometimes months

I do know mine is anxiety and once I start I can't stop thinking about it so it makes it worse and especially at night but to stop it like I said I suck a mint or something to try and distract myself x

It is an anxious cough: tickling feeling in the throat+dry cough.

The more you think of it, the worse the cough become. Lots of people have it in this covid19 pandemic. I just went through it, still have it but become better.
