Gagging?

Does anybody else gag when they are extremely anxious?

The muscles that control swallowing in the throat can tighten up as a result of anxiety.

It is called pharyngeal spasm and makes the normal subconscious process of swallowing awkward.

It can also result in a clicking noise from the cartiledge .

Relaxation practices such as meditation can help, if not I was prescribed Diazepam which relaxes the muscles.

I hope this helps wink

Yes I do...

Hi hun, I can't say I do but I do get a really dry mouth and have difficulty swallowing, quite often. Donna xxx
