I have had this for years but I would only think about it for a short time. Now i have been thinking of it for months. Basically whenever I think of swallowing saliva builds up in my mouth and after 10-30 seconds I have to swallow because my mouth just fills up with saliva. If I don’t swallow for like 1-2 minute it is like talking with a big gulp of water in my mouth and it is very annoying. Only when i’m alone and gaming for example I don’t think about it but in social situations always. This leads to me swallowing like every 30 seconds and People can see and hear it. I even noticed that people in school sitting next to me also start swallowing every minute because of me. And I just can‘t get it out of my head. I tried to just not swallow even when I felt the need but I just can’t because my mouth will really fill up. if I’m alone and this happens I don’t care but in social situations it is the worst. I just don‘t know what to do and talking about it with others just makes me scared of them also getting this problem
