Hijab for summer?I’m overwhelmed

Hi everyone,

I hope everyone is doing well,

Sisters im in the uk and currently it’s hot summer and wanted to order some hijabs which are good for this weather.

The thing is i get so easily overwhelmed when i have to shop with my adhd and other issues, i look into too many things,

I have some jersey and liquid jersey hijabs, I wanted to get some cotton modal? I’m not sure where to look, budget wise I don’t want high price, mid range is okay.

I keep seeing some hijabs for £20 plus and same ones for much less than that, are they even similar qualities?

I was looking into veiled hijabs?

Difficulty Swallowing Food / Anxiety or Something Else?

I’ve been having a lot of difficulty lately with swallowing food, and I don’t know if it’s anxiety related or if something else is going on physically.

Sometimes eating feels really hard, and at times it even feels difficult to swallow water. Tonight things got really scary — I was eating chicken, felt like I was choking, panicked badly, and ended up calling an ambulance because I genuinely thought something was wrong.

The confusing part is that there also seems to be a big fight-or-flight response attached to it. After the choking feeling, I started shaking, panicking, and feeling overwhelmed emotionally. It’s hard for me to tell what’s physical and what’s anxiety.

I’ve noticed this swallowing difficulty tends to get worse during periods of stress, anxiety, or when I’m processing a lot emotionally. Sometimes it feels like my throat tightens or my body goes into panic mode while eating.

I don’t know if anyone else has experienced something similar — where anxiety, trauma, stress, or trapped emotions seem connected to swallowing problems or fear around eating/swallowing.

I’m not looking for a diagnosis, just trying to make sense of what’s happening and whether others have experienced anything similar.
