Damn. Just had a choking incident with water. This is 3rd time I experienced true choking (no air no noise, everything just freezes and throat closes.

After my throat closed, i relaxed into a meditative state and focused only on getting air. After 30 seconds I could get tiny sips of air through.

I was about to hit my emergency signal on my phone when my daughter heard me - after about 10 mins of slow breathing, my full breath returned.

@ucantstop_me First of all, I'm glad you're okay. Second of all, I'm glad I'm not the only one who has choked that badly on water before, I felt like an idiot. Solidarity.

@tippitiwichet never be embarrassed or ashamed. Most who die from choking in public were embarrassed to make a fuss.

All three of my true choking incidents were either water, saliva and a diet coke.

@ucantstop_me Good point, my insecurity needs to bug off.
