Hi i'm 25 years old, I have had an anxiety problem for over 4 years now, iv'e tried everything, been to several specialist all around the united states, it happened about 4 years ago, I caught my ex cheating on me, and when I did I felt like I lot my mind, I felt so weird, I developed a lump in my throat, you hear that sometime in your life, like something left a lump in your throat, usually a traumatic event of some sort, this lump has been there for a while, my throat and upper chest region one night was swollen so bad that it was almost impossible to breathe and it was so uncomfortable, I almost felt like I was dying or something, I tried to clear my throat and I spit up some blood, then right after that I got so dizzy and I couldnt stand up, I felt so weird, I layed down to go to sleep that night and I felt some changes in my mind and body, metabolic changes? Mind changes? Body changes? When I woke up the next morning I felt so different, I didn't feel like it was me, it was like I had a personality shift of some sort. I had no emotions at all. I went to work that day just without a care in the world. I quit smoking that day, and that is weird, because I had smoked for 4 years prior to that. It was like my body and mind quit working together, and for me to up and quit smoking like that, there had to be a change in the way my body works. I still have a feeling of a lump in my throat, I have been on 6 different kinds of medications and none of them helped, it seemed like they have made me feel like im totally nuts. I have some emotions now, they are coming back to me slowly, I have researched this for some time now, and it falls back on anxiety disorders and stress, when I burp my throat seems to feel better, lately, I have been wondering if will ever go away. I have to be strong and try to relax myself alot, and try not to get into stressful situations, if anyone has went though this type of problem let me know.
