I am a female, and mother of 2, my problem is. There is a constant feeling of lump or tightness in my throat. Like when you fight back tears. And I feel emotional for no reason, most of the time in a day. But the tightness is always there. I suffer from depression and anxiety from past 7 years. And now on zoloft from past 2 years. Was on nexito for 5 years before that. Why there is always tightness in my throat. As if I am fighting back tears?
