My throat feels so tight its killing me
I wanted to vent here since my parents hate it when i talk about my problems so i just thought someone might listen to me here.
I have been having this very uncomfortable symptom a while (few days) and its been eating me up. My throat started to feel very tight and dry for some reason and it just wont go away no matter what i do. I would explain the tightness as if something is wrapped around my neck tight and suffocating me even though i am breathing just fine, also dont get me started on how hard it is to eat.. its also making hard for me to speak for some reason, my jaw feeling kind of tight too, i started taking some drops for anxiety but im not sure how this will help. I also feel tired all day long since of this and im scared this will never go away again, i have been crying because of this everyday
I was supposed to hang out with my friends which i always like to but i had to cancel because of how bad i feel. Now, im not sure if its an anxiety thing or just a non problem but i feel like im going to jump if this lasts one more day because my mood is pretty miserable too. I dont know what to do anymore i just want it gone, and when i read someone had it for YEARS it didnt make it any better for me. It makes everything i do just so unenjoyable. I thought it might be anxiety since i kind of struggle with it but i wasnt feeling much anxious lately so i dont understand why this suddenly began but now i just want this to pass so i can feel at ease again
I would love to find some way to get rid of this, honestly anything will help as i feel really bad at the moment and have been already thinking about just ending it. Any advice is appreciated
I would appreciate any kind words or advice from you since this community is the only thing i have faith in anymore ^^
