For the past couple of days i've not been able to feel the food that's in my mouth properly and I can't taste some foods very well. I've also just noticed my gag reflex is almost gone, is this normal with anxiety?

whats normal for anxiety ??

I would just give it a day or so and see if it passes . Chances are it is anxiety . It can bring on some funny symptoms .

... And some not so funny ones!

Like somtimes it can even make you speak in fluent Spanish out of the blue... Vete a la mierda yo odio la ansiedad!

Anyway... let's get back to the gag reflex.


Get a really long (at least a foot) savloy sausage, dip the end in a thick, white sauce (mayo will do) and then slowly... REALLY slowly push the sausage (dippy end first)
into your mouth and down your throat.

While you take the foot-long monster of a sausage... repeat to yourself "take it bitch... take it bitch"

Bet you gag before it gets to your uvula (the bell thingy hanging from your mouth roof)

LOL

Just a comment. No gag reflex is hard to achieve through anxiety - usually years of extensive vomiting does it... Confessions of a former bulimic.

I do struggle to eat sometimes - even without the gag reflex - I feel like I can't swallow properly and food gets stuck in my throat. Or I feel like I'm going to choke.

Also that Lieutenant Dangle costume is the bomb. Seriously.
