Help! Fear of swallowing? Fear of Choking?!

Help! Fear of swallowing? Fear of Choking?

I almost choked and, ever since then, I can not swallow food without it taking forever! It can take an hour or more to drink a glass of water. Clearly, this is not normal and I am afraid of starving to death. Reassurance, advice please! How long can I survive with this fear before I am in trouble? I am eating very little and every bite is a struggle.

Hi Jane, That is pretty scary you have to eat!! You need to see a doctor or a counselor and try to talk threw this and get help. Something like this could cause you to die and we sure don't want that to happen. Get the help you need and do it A.S.A.P. If you want your normal life back. A Friend.
