Is it normal to choke on air?

When I open my mouth and open my throat as much as I can I start gagging and choking and I feel like I'm going to throw up.

Is it normal?

  • i think so because this happens to me all the time.. i end up getting kind of anxious when they happen though, which doesn't help at all and makes me choke out of nervousnesss.

      • I hope not. That runs in my family. This only happened while on my back (causes the tongue to flip back and obstruct breathing) and facing my old A/C. I stopped using it and I have a portable cooler now. There's been no problem. I think dreaming that I was choking or having a swollen throat was another part of the problem.
