back story: in 2011 i was diagnosed with general anxiety disorder triggered from 3 nights of bad sleep. browsed on the net over the disorder and came across some one posting that they were conscious of swallowing. the worry some thoughts embedded in my brain and i would keep thinking about swallowing. i was on celexa for 6 months and it went away after i got off the medication. then i was smoking a cigar (i never smoke anything except that it was handed to me during a baby shower to celebrate) i went home and it triggered the swallowing thoughts. i went back on the meds and back off. the swallowing thought came back.

how do i get rid of these thoughts that pop into my head. when im busy i dont think about it,

Hi and welcome to the forum.

I would suggest perhaps have a CBT course to help you.
CBT was beneficial on helping my anxiety thoughts mine were always triggered by reading or hearing something too.

Which country are you from?
