What Causes Choking Sensation In Throat Due To Anxiety?

I have a condition which I believe is caused by anxiety that causes me to have a choking sensation in my throat and makes it feel full when I encounter or even think about something emotionally unpleasant. It stops as soon as I am away from the stressor. What is wrong with me. Is there a name for this?

Dear
Welcome to HCM

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Stress and anxiety is known to produce weird symptoms across the body which do not have physiological / medical reasons. In your case, as you already know you are stressed, these symptoms could be of stress related anxiety. Ignorance is the best way to overcome it.

I can help you in this aspect. Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement.

I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.
