    yes that’s a very common symptom of anxiety. it does help to keep busy so that you are not focusing on this and overthinking it. Your body knows when it needs to swallow and it will happen automatically if needed. it’s not something you need to think about. The more you relax your mind the less this will happen. ❤

    Yes, this is very common. I used to have it and like every other anxiety symptom, once you stop worrying about it, it disappears.
