swallowing issues especially when eating

Does anyone have trouble like swallowing? you really arent having trouble but you think you are?

sometimes at work when im talking to my customers i get it in my head that i cant swallow. i always feel that i need to be drinking water so my throat will be wet.

when i go out in public and eat i feel like i wont be able to swallow my food, like i have to force it down.

my throat is fine though its all in my head. anyone else suffer?

Yes, I go through this too when my anxiety is high or when eating in public. Have you been diagnosed with anxiety? Throat tightness, or the feeling of having it, is on the list of possible anxiety symptoms.
