Have been dealing with anxiety ever since I was around 14, so about 5 years now. Recently, I experienced a panic attack while I happened to be eating and I felt like I was going to choke on my food, but I ended up only having a coughing fit. Ever since, I've been increasingly having trouble and hesitation when swallowing food. I have to actively think about swallowing every bite and it is so frustrating. I also feel like I have to chew everything way more and have a sip of water with every bite.
