Who knows what about laryngospasms?


I have laryngospasms.Its this thing that affects my breathing.It has to do with the vocal cords and the fact that when i have anxiety it acts up.What i need to know is very important!Is it life threatening? Will it ever go away? Is there any relaxation techniques i could use to take my mind of whats causing my problems?Please help me! i dont want to be tortured for the rest of my life not being able to breath/having a hard time doing it!!

there is a possibility that it can be life threatening - you can get meds or have surgery to help it.
this site has a bit about treatments:

good luck! i hope this helped.

speech therapy is used to treat laryngospasms and vocal cord dysfunction. it would probably be beneficial.
