I’ve gone through much of my life feeling like there was a noose around my neck.
This sensation is caused by laryngospasms, which, in my case, are primarily caused by anxiety.
Because my throat was tensed up so often due to stress, I developed vocal cord dysfunction.
I went through two months of physical therapy to unlearn the erroneous lessons that stress and anxiety taught my body.
Even now, I have to make a conscious effort to focus on exhalation because my larynx defaults to closing on inhalation.
Stress: it’s a killer, and it will fuck you up. No joke.
Enjoy some relaxing music.
Stress and its incestuous cousins anxiety and depression are indeed beasts.
