What does it mean when it feels like you’re choking, but there’s nothing there?Not food, not illness, not anything you can point to. Just a tight, uncomfortable squeeze in your throat that refuses to let go. You try to swallow. You try not to think about it. And still, it lingers.This episode sits with that feeling. It unpacks why anxiety so often shows up in the throat, how stress can create real muscle tension that mimics something much more serious, and why it tends to hit hardest when you’re already on edge.There’s also a deeper thread running through the conversation – how emotions can get lodged in the body, how fear of the sensation can make it worse, and why chasing the symptom might keep you further from relief.For anyone who’s ever wondered, What if this doesn’t go away?, this is a thoughtful and grounding place to start.(This is an AI-generated episode inspired by my YouTube videos.
